Materials Guide
What we use defines what we make.
At SANA Jewels, material choice is the first act of design. We select only metals and stones that meet our standards for beauty, integrity, and longevity — because the quality of your jewelry begins long before it reaches your hands.
Gold
Gold is the only metal that does not tarnish, corrode, or lose its brilliance over time — it is as luminous the day it is crafted as it will be a century from now. We work in 10K, 14K, and 18K gold, each stamped and hallmarked as required by law and sourced through reputable, established supply chains.
It Never Tarnishes
Unlike silver, gold retains its luster indefinitely with minimal care.
It Is Hypoallergenic
Pure gold does not react with skin. Higher-karat pieces are ideal for sensitive skin.
It Holds Its Value
A precious metal with intrinsic worth, making your jewelry an investment as much as an adornment.
| Karat | Gold Purity | Character |
|---|---|---|
| 10K | 41.7% gold | Most durable, budget-conscious |
| 14K | 58.3% gold | Our signature — ideal for everyday fine jewelry |
| 18K | 75% gold | Richer color, elevated luxury |
| 24K | 99.9% gold | Pure gold — too soft for jewelry |
Why 14K? It resists scratches better than 18K or 24K, holds its color beautifully over time, and offers genuine gold quality at an accessible price — the industry standard for fine everyday jewelry, and our choice at SANA Jewels. Available in yellow, white, and rose tones to complement every skin tone and occasion.
925 Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is the foundation of fine jewelry. Composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% strengthening alloy, it strikes the perfect balance between brilliance and wearability. All pieces are stamped with the 925 hallmark as required by law, hypoallergenic, and tarnish-resistant with proper care — many are rhodium-plated for added brilliance and protection. Whether worn daily or saved for special occasions, sterling silver retains its luminous quality and timeless appeal.
Genuine Stones
Every stone in our collection is genuine. Natural diamonds are conflict-free and Kimberley Process certified. Lab-grown options are clearly identified. We do not use simulants without full disclosure.
Our Standard
Every material we use is chosen with intention. We will not compromise on what goes into a SANA Jewels piece — because we know it will be worn close to the skin, carried through life’s most meaningful moments, and perhaps passed on to someone you love.
