Materials & Care
PURAJOIA jewelry uses different materials and finishes depending on the style. Always check the individual product page for the exact material, finish, stone and care information for your piece.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a durable, low-maintenance jewelry base used in many everyday pieces. When a PURAJOIA product is made from stainless steel, it is identified clearly on the product page.
18K Gold PVD
PVD stands for Physical Vapor Deposition. It is a coating process applied in a vacuum to create a durable gold finish on selected jewelry styles. Products using this finish are labeled 18K Gold PVD.
925 Sterling Silver
925 Sterling Silver contains 92.5% silver. Products made from sterling silver are labeled 925 Sterling Silver so they are easy to distinguish from silver-tone stainless steel.
Cubic Zirconia
Cubic zirconia is a man-made stone valued for its bright, clear appearance. When used in a PURAJOIA piece, it is listed as Cubic Zirconia on the product page.
Freshwater Pearls
Freshwater pearls are naturally formed, so small variations in shape, texture and tone are normal and make each pearl unique.
