PVD Coating is a vacuum coating process whereby, titanium nitride is used to provide an extremely durable and hardwearing coating

PVD coated jewellery is superior to gold plated jewellery as gold plated jewellery utilises a base layer, usually silver, nickel, copper, or brass, which are all non-biocompatible materials

PVD (physical vapor deposition) coating

materials

PVD is incredibly durable, resistant to corrosion and sweat, will not tarnish and is able to be made up to 10 times thicker than traditional gold plating. As the finished is bonded to the base metal it will not wear off

plating is often used to cover a cheaper and non-bio-compatible metal (Such as .925 sterling silver, copper or brass) with a more expensive Metal (usually 14k gold). However, the layer of plating is usually thin and will wear off when exposed to the elements

Plated jewellery is significantly less durable than PVD-coated jewellery. After continuous use, the plating will wear off and expose the piercing to the base material which is usually brass.

Plated Jewellery

All TwoSix piercing jewellery is finished with an incredibly durable PVD coating
