Finishing
Rhodium Finish
The finish that elevates everything.
Many SANA Jewels pieces feature a rhodium finish — a premium plating process that elevates both the appearance and longevity of your jewelry. It is the same finish used by the world’s most prestigious jewelry houses.
What Is Rhodium?
Rhodium is a rare, silvery-white metal from the platinum family — one of the most reflective and durable metals on earth. Rarer than gold, it is prized for its extraordinary brightness and resistance to corrosion.
Why We Use It
Mirror-Bright Shine
Gives jewelry an exceptionally bright, white luster that enhances the sparkle of every diamond and gemstone.
Tarnish Resistance
Unlike bare silver, rhodium-plated surfaces resist tarnishing and oxidation, keeping your piece looking new longer.
Scratch Resistance
Rhodium is harder than silver and gold, providing a protective layer against everyday wear.
Hypoallergenic
Creates a barrier between the base metal and your skin, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Caring for Rhodium-Plated Pieces
Avoid abrasive polishing cloths on rhodium-plated pieces. Gentle cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap is best. Over time, plating may wear in high-contact areas and can be professionally re-plated by a jeweler.
