Materials and
Maintenance


We select materials designed to be worn every day, without complications. With a few simple steps, each Echo piece can accompany you for a long time and maintain its character over time.

The materials we use

Echo jewelry includes stainless steel, natural stones, and pearls. Each material is chosen for a balance between aesthetics, durability, and ease of use.

Stainless Steel 304

A strong and durable material, suitable for daily use. It does not rust, tarnish, and maintains its appearance over time (especially if treated with care).

Stainless Steel 316L

An even more corrosion-resistant version, even in contact with water and sweat. It is a reliable choice for jewelry designed to last.

Natural Stones

Each stone may have slight variations in color, veining, shape, or transparency. These are natural details, not defects.

Natural Pearls

Natural pearls are delicate and unique. Small irregularities in the surface or shape are part of their authenticity.

Gold Finishes

Gold jewelry is made with plating treatments chosen to enhance the metal's brilliance and preserve its beauty over time.

Depending on the model, they can be made with IP Gold ionic plating, valued for its uniformity and resistance, or PVD vacuum plating, a modern technology that ensures a bright finish and greater durability compared to traditional platings.

Daily Use

Our materials are designed to accompany you in everyday life, but some habits help preserve finishes, surfaces, and details better.

  • Avoid direct contact with perfumes, creams, oils, and chemical products;
  • (Preferably) remove jewelry before sports activities, manual labor, or situations of strong friction;
  • You can safely use jewelry for a day at the beach, but remember to rinse it with fresh water when you return;
  • Wear jewelry after applying cosmetics or perfumes, not before.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning helps remove skin residue, dust, and products that can accumulate with daily use.

  • Clean your jewelry with a soft, dry cloth after wearing it;
  • If necessary, use a little lukewarm water and dry carefully;
  • Avoid harsh detergents, alcohol, bleach, or abrasive products;
  • For natural stones and pearls, always prefer gentle, manual cleaning.

Storage

How you store your jewelry can also make a difference. Keeping them separate and away from humidity helps prevent scratches, bumps, and alterations.

  • Store jewelry separately, especially if they have stones or pearls;
  • Store them in a dry place, away from direct light and humidity;
  • Avoid leaving them in the bathroom or in very hot and humid environments;
  • Close necklaces and bracelets before storing them, to reduce the risk of knots.

Natural Stones and Pearls

Natural stones and pearls require a little more care than steel. They are more sensitive to impacts, chemicals, and prolonged humidity.

  • Avoid rubbing them with rough or abrasive materials;
  • Protect from perfumes, hairsprays, creams, and detergents;
  • Preferably store them separately from other jewelry.
