CRAFTSMANSHIP
OUR MATERIALS
SKILLFULL AND SUSTAINABLE CRAFTSMANSHIP
At Tafein, every piece of jewelry tells a tale of uncompromised quality and dedication. From the very beginning, we have established strict quality control measures to oversee every step of our manufacturing journey. Our commitment doesn't end there. We meticulously verify our suppliers, ensuring the materials we use are top-grade and responsibly sourced. Each material undergoes rigorous inspections to meet our exacting standards. With routine audits, in-house testing, and daily training sessions, we ensure that our team is always at the forefront of quality assurance. Our unique four-step check means every item is inspected at four crucial points before it's sent to you. From metal purity inspections, gemstone authenticity checks, to advanced tests on electroplating thickness and bond, we leave no stone unturned. It's not just about creating jewelry; it's about crafting enduring symbols of excellence.
PRECIOUS METALS
RECYCLED GOLD
Meticulously crafted with a generous 2.5 to 3 micron thick layer of gold over sterling silver. With a layer five times thicker than typical gold-plated items, our Gold Vermeil ensures longevity, allowing you to indulge in the elegance of gold without the hefty price tag of solid gold. With a touch of care, these treasures are destined to shine by your side for years to come.

RECYCLED STERLING SILVER
The foundation of many of our exquisite pieces, our 925 Sterling Silver is both a symbol of purity and strength. While pure silver is soft and delicate, our alloyed version, with 92.5% silver, balances its innate beauty with the durability needed to weather ups and downs of daily adventures. It's the blend of tradition with practicality, ensuring that the pieces remain timeless both in style and endurance.
