Our smooth, ceramic jewelry is created by mixing zirconia ceramic and cementing agents, then pouring it into molds. This allows pieces to be etched with intricate shapes and designs. Ceramic materials are strong in compression and withstand chemical erosion that occurs in an acidic or corrosive environment.
Our customers who choose ceramic jewelry prefer it for its abrasion resistance. Because it is light-weight and scratch-resistance but still smooth to the touch, it gives an elegant appearance. Ceramic jewelry is a lot like tungsten carbide in that both are scratch resistant against most materials. However, ceramic will crack and crush if heavily abused.
