Mystic eye necklace is made of stainless steel base, 18k gold Ion Plated. (More info about this type of plating see below)
Length of the chain is 22'', with extra 2'' of extender chain. Chain is curb style, with tiny flat discs along it, which reflect the light so subtly.
Hammered Coin pendant has the Eye symbol on both sides of it. Size of the coin is 17mm.
Beautiful necklace to wear by itself for minimalistic look, yet length of the necklace and size of the pendant are perfect for layering with other necklaces, shorter and longer. For inspiration look at our other necklaces as they are all designed and made with styling and layering in mind :)

>> What is IP gold plating <<
IP gold plating, also known as Ion Plating (IP), is a advanced coating process where vaporized metallic elements, such as gold, are bonded to the surface of another material, typically stainless steel or tungsten. This process is more durable and resistant to scratches and corrosion compared to traditional plating methods.
How IP Gold Plating Works
IP gold plating involves bombarding the surface with atomic-sized energetic particles, which are then bonded to the material. This creates a strong and durable coating that is resistant to wear and tear. The process is commonly used in the jewelry industry, particularly for gold-plated stainless steel items, as it provides a more affordable and lightweight alternative to traditional gold.
Benefits of IP Gold Plating
* Durability: IP gold plating is more resistant to scratches and corrosion compared to traditional plating methods.
* Affordability: Gold ion-plated stainless steel is a more affordable option compared to traditional gold.
* Lightweight: IP gold plating is often used in jewelry and accessories, providing a lightweight and comfortable wear.
* Rust-resistant: The base metal, stainless steel, is rust-resistant, making it a great option for everyday wear.
Conclusion
IP gold plating is a sophisticated coating process that offers a durable, affordable, and lightweight alternative to traditional gold plating. Its benefits make it a popular choice in the jewelry industry, particularly for gold-plated stainless steel items.
