At EXOTICOSS, we use PVD coating on all our pieces — and for good reason. Here's what makes it different from traditional plating.
What is PVD?
Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is an advanced industrial process where a thin layer of metal is vaporized and bonded directly onto the surface of the jewelry at a molecular level. The result is a finish that is significantly harder and more durable than conventional electroplating.
PVD vs. Traditional Plating
• Traditional gold plating wears off within months with regular use.
• PVD coating bonds at a molecular level — making it 3–5x more resistant to scratching, fading, and tarnishing.
• PVD is also more environmentally friendly, using no harmful chemicals in the process.
Why We Choose PVD
Our 316L stainless steel base combined with PVD coating means your EXOTICOSS piece maintains its color and shine through daily wear — whether it's gold, black, or rose gold.
How to Maintain Your PVD Finish
• Avoid abrasive materials and rough surfaces.
• Clean gently with a soft, lint-free cloth.
• Keep away from harsh chemicals and chlorine.
