About the material of the products | Steffanii

At Steffanii, we take pride in using premium materials that elevate the beauty and longevity of our jewelry. Each gemstone and metal is selected with care, ensuring the finest quality for every piece. Here’s an in-depth look at the materials that make our creations stand out.

Zircon

Zircon is a natural gemstone that has captivated jewelers and wearers for centuries due to its exceptional sparkle and versatility. Known for its brilliance and durability, zircon is often used as an alternative to diamonds. Here are some key characteristics:

Sparkling Brilliance: Zircon possesses a high refractive index, giving it a dazzling brilliance similar to that of diamonds. It reflects light beautifully, making it an ideal choice for jewelry that catches attention.
Durability: With a hardness rating of 6 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, zircon is highly resistant to scratches and daily wear, making it suitable for rings, earrings, and other frequently worn pieces.
Natural and Affordable: Unlike synthetic stones, zircon is a naturally occurring gemstone that provides an affordable yet elegant option for those seeking high-quality jewelry.

Moissanite

Moissanite is a gemstone renowned for its diamond-like appearance and exceptional sparkle. Originally discovered in meteorites, moissanite is now lab-created, combining beauty with ethical sourcing.

Exceptional Sparkle: Moissanite has a higher refractive index than diamonds, resulting in a more intense sparkle. This makes it one of the most brilliant gemstones available, captivating with its light refraction and fire.
Durability: Scoring 9.25 on the Mohs scale, moissanite is one of the hardest gemstones, ensuring it can withstand everyday wear and tear.
Eco-Friendly Choice: Since moissanite is lab-grown, it is an environmentally friendly option, free from the ethical concerns sometimes associated with mined diamonds. It offers a sustainable yet luxurious alternative.

925 Sterling Silver

925 Sterling Silver is one of the most popular materials in the jewelry industry, known for its luster and durability. This alloy consists of 92.5% pure silver, with 7.5% other metals, usually copper, to enhance its strength.

Timeless Shine: Sterling silver has a natural brightness and can be polished to a high luster, giving it a timeless appeal that complements any outfit or occasion.
Durability: While pure silver is too soft for jewelry, 925 sterling silver is durable enough to withstand daily wear while maintaining its shape and appearance.
Hypoallergenic Properties: Sterling silver is hypoallergenic, making it a suitable option for people with sensitive skin, especially compared to other metal alloys.

Each of these materials contributes to the uniqueness and quality of Steffanii jewelry, providing options that suit a range of preferences and lifestyles. Whether you’re drawn to the classic allure of zircon, the eco-conscious sparkle of moissanite, or the timeless elegance of sterling silver, our pieces are crafted to bring lasting beauty and joy.
