What is Non-Tarnish Jewellery?

By Alisha Hitchcock

Put simply, Non-Tarnish Jewellery is jewellery that won't become dull and fade over time.

What Materials Are Used in Non-Tarnish Jewellery?

Non-tarnish jewellery is made from metals that resist oxidation, helping them stay bright and polished without fading over time. While traditional silver and low-karat gold can tarnish, some metals provide a tarnish-free alternative.

Popular choices for non-tarnish jewellery include:

  • Stainless Steel – A strong, corrosion-resistant metal that won’t tarnish or fade. At Bloom Boutique, we use stainless steel for its durability, shine, and low-maintenance appeal.
  • Titanium – Ultra-lightweight and hypoallergenic, titanium is naturally tarnish-resistant and ideal for sensitive skin.
  • Platinum – A premium metal that won’t tarnish, making it one of the most enduring choices for fine jewellery.
  • High-Karat Gold (18K or 24K) – Higher-purity gold resists tarnishing, while lower-karat gold contains more alloys that may oxidise over time.
  • Argentium Sterling Silver – A modern upgrade to traditional silver, containing germanium for improved tarnish resistance.

While materials like platinum and titanium offer tarnish-free durability, stainless steel remains one of the best everyday options. At Bloom Boutique, our stainless steel jewellery is designed to stay polished, stylish, and effortlessly non-tarnish, a perfect choice for timeless accessories.
