Leather is a material obtained by tanning animal skin. Leather has been used as clothing pieces such as coats and shoes, as well as all kinds of accessories. For instance, we are accustomed having gloves, purses, hats and belts made of leather. However, also jewels are often made out of leather or at least, have some leather parts too: necklaces with leather cords, jewels of Native Americans, hair accessories or leather bracelets. Leather can be rubbed with oil to make it more supple. Thanks to this oil, the leather becomes waterproof. Animal oils soften leather and prolongs leather´s life.

Stainless steel´s extremely shiny surface with almost no uneven traces is highly appreciated. Furthermore, it is a hard, scratch-resistant and stainless material. Stainless steel does not tarnish and allergies to it are very rare.

PVD is the abbreviation for "Physical Vapor Deposition" and is a coating method. This is a purely physical process that takes place at high temperature and under vacuum. Black PVD coating mainly uses carbonitride or titanium nitride to increase resistance and durability. The jewelry gets a beautiful gray or black hue and is additionally protected by the PVD coating.
