MATERIALS AND AUTHENTICITY

Quadrato is crafted with a solid base of 925 sterling silver and an 18k gold-plated finish for warmth and longevity. This combination offers a refined glow without compromising comfort. The center stone is natural malachite. Expect unique banding and tonal shifts from forest to emerald green. No two stones are identical and this variation is a hallmark of genuine material rather than imitation. For context on natural versus synthetic malachite, see the Gemological Institute of America:

Sensitive ears in mind: sterling silver is widely preferred by many with sensitivities. Nickel exposure is a common trigger. The American Academy of Dermatology offers guidance on nickel allergy: https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/eczema/insider/nickel-allergy. EU rules restrict nickel release in jewelry; read more at the European Chemicals Agency: https://www.echa.europa.eu/substances-restricted-under-reach. We communicate metals precisely in line with the FTC Jewelry Guides: https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/rules/jewelry-precious-metals-pewter-industries.

DESIGN INSPIRATION: KOREAN AND HANGUL MINIMALISM

Quadrato translates the Hangul character ㄷ into a crisp square silhouette. The geometric outline adds structure, while the soft malachite veining keeps it grounded and organic. Wear it as a subtle statement that pairs with tailored looks, weekend knits, and everything in between.

CARE TIPS: PROLONG THE GOLD PLATING

Gold-plated jewelry rewards gentle habits. To keep your Quadrato glow bright for longer, follow these simple steps.

- Remove before showering, swimming, or workouts.  

- Avoid contact with soaps, perfumes, lotions, and household cleaners.  

- After wearing, wipe gently with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.  

- Store each piece separately in a soft pouch to reduce scratches.  

- Follow a last-on, first-off routine to limit friction with clothing and other jewelry.  

- Use only non-abrasive cloths; avoid tissue on the gold-plated surface.
