Difference Between Ion Plating (IP)
and PVD Vacuum Plating

Our stainless steel jewelry undergoes three types of electroplating processes: PVD vacuum plating, ion plating (IP), and water electroplating. Vacuum plating, also known as physical vapor deposition (PVD), is a surface treatment technology. This process involves evaporating or sputtering metal or non-metal materials under vacuum conditions and depositing them onto the surface of the object to create a thin film. PVD technology includes various coating methods, with ion plating (IP) being one of them. Ion plating (IP) is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that is sometimes called ion assisted deposition (IAD) or ion vapor deposition (IVD) and is a modified version of vacuum deposition.

The thickness of the plating layer is influenced by the electroplating process and duration. The longer the plating time, the thicker the layer becomes, resulting in longer color preservation.

Below is a brief comparison of the color durability of Ion Plating, PVD Vacuum Plating, and Water Galvanization.

Electroplating Process Feature Metal Color Color Durability
No Electroplating Stainless steel is a non-reactive metal, which means it does not oxidize or tarnish like other metals such as silver or brass. Hypoallergenic. Stainless Steel Color Tarnish resistant, retain its color for a long time
Vacuum Ion Plating(IP) The vacuum plating process is complex and requires specific environmental and equipment conditions, making it a green, environmentally friendly technology. The plating is done in a vacuum oven, resulting in longer color retention and a durable coating. Real Gold Plated

How to Measure Your Ring Size

Please note ring sizes may differ in different designs. Rings with wider bands will fit a bit tighter. So you can go up a size when purchasing a wide design ring. In addition, make sure that your finger is at its normal size before taking your measurements.


Method 1: Using a piece of paper strip or thread.



First, take out a piece of the paper strip, string, ribbon, or thread, and wrap it around where you wear your rings.

Second, when the paper strip starts to overlap, make the mark with a pen or pencil.

Third, measure the length you have marked with a measuring tape or ruler. Thus, you’ll get the inside circumference of rings and then place the measured size on the chart below to find your suitable ring size.
