Why choose waterproof jewelry?
Regular jewelry — especially gold-plated — loses color on contact with water, sweat, and skincare products. Waterproof jewelry from Alora Avenue is designed to handle your active lifestyle without compromise. You can shower, work out, swim, and sleep with them — without them losing their shine.
This means fewer pieces of jewelry are discarded and less need to buy new ones. Good for your wallet and the environment.
Waterproof gold jewelry
Our gold jewelry is made of 316L stainless steel with 18K PVD gold plating. PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is an advanced vacuum technology that bonds the gold color at a molecular level — much stronger than traditional gold plating. The result is jewelry that looks like real gold but can withstand water, sweat, and daily use.
Waterproof silver jewelry
Our silver jewelry uses the same 316L steel with a silver-colored PVD surface. Unlike real silver, which oxidizes and turns black, our jewelry retains its color. Perfect if you like the silver look but don't want to polish jewelry every week.
Material & durability
All Alora Avenue jewelry is made of 316L stainless steel — the same material used in surgical instruments and watches. The steel is:
- Hypoallergenic — nickel-free and safe for sensitive skin
- Rust-proof — does not discolour from water or moisture
- Scratch-resistant — harder surface than traditional gold-plated brass
- Durable — retains color and finish for years
We offer a 1-year color warranty on all our jewelry. Read more about our warranty.
Frequently asked questions about waterproof jewelry
Can you shower with waterproof jewelry?
Yes! All our jewelry can withstand showering, bathing, and swimming. The PVD plating does not react with water or soap.
Does waterproof jewelry lose its color?
No. The PVD technique bonds the color at a molecular level, making it significantly more durable than regular gold plating. We provide a 1-year color warranty.
Is the jewelry hypoallergenic?
Yes. 316L stainless steel is nickel-free and hypoallergenic — safe even for those with sensitive skin or nickel allergies.
What is the difference from real gold?
The appearance is practically identical to 18K gold. The difference is that our jewelry costs a fraction of the price and can withstand more — you don't need to take them off during workouts or showers.
How do I care for waterproof jewelry?
Minimal care is required. Rinse with lukewarm water after the ocean or pool and wipe with a soft cloth. Avoid strong chemicals like chlorine in high concentrations.
Can I work out with the jewelry?
Absolutely. Sweat and moisture do not affect the PVD surface. Many of our customers wear their jewelry 24/7 — gym, yoga, running, and everything in between.
