At Je t'aime, we pride ourselves on using only the finest materials for our exquisite jewelry pieces. Understanding the properties and unique qualities of these materials will help you appreciate their beauty and make an informed choice. Voilà! Here’s an overview of our primary materials.

18K GOLD
18K gold is the epitome of luxury and a beloved choice for those who cherish the finest jewelry. Comprising 75% pure gold, with the remaining 25% a blend of complementary metals such as copper and silver, the high gold infuses it with a warm, radiant glow that is coveted for its timeless beauty and elegance.

Yellow gold, the embodiment of classic elegance, is enriched with copper and silver, preserving its traditional, lustrous golden hue. White gold, a modern marvel, is crafted by alloying gold with white metals like palladium or nickel and is often enhanced with a rhodium plating to achieve a brilliant, mirror-like finish. Rose gold is a romantic shade created by infusing a higher percentage of copper, resulting in a captivating pink or red tint that exudes warmth and charm.

The exquisite color and remarkable durability of 18K gold make it an ideal choice for both everyday elegance and the most cherished occasions, ensuring that its beauty endures as long as the memories it celebrates.

9K GOLD
9K gold is an affordable and durable option for those seeking the beauty of gold at a lower price. 9K gold is composed of 37.5% pure gold and 62.5% other metals, it is harder and more resistant to wear than higher karat golds, offering longevity and resilience. 

Its yellow hue is more muted, yet still elegant; white gold is similarly crafted and often rhodium-plated for a bright finish, while rose gold has a softer rosy tint. Despite its lower gold content, 9K gold remains charming and shiny, making it a practical and beautiful choice for everyday jewelry.

925 Silver
Silver is a timeless and versatile metal, celebrated for its brilliant shine and affordability. The most commonly used form in jewelry is sterling silver, which is the silver we use and comprises 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper, to enhance its strength. This composition gives silver its bright luster and makes it a favorite for various jewelry styles, from classic to contemporary.

Silver's affordability and stunning shine make it a popular choice for both everyday wear and special occasion pieces. With proper care, silver jewelry can maintain its beauty and brilliance for many years, making it a cherished addition to any collection.
