Titanium Steel (316L)

Titanium steel in this collection means 316L stainless steel — the grade used for surgical instruments and watch cases, chosen here because it keeps its finish through daily wear. It resists corrosion and rust, does not darken the way plated brass does, and can be worn in the shower or while washing hands without special care. Every ring and pendant in this group is solid 316L rather than a plated base metal, so the surface you see is the metal all the way through. Pieces are finished by hand: seals and sutra text are engraved rather than printed, and spinning rings are assembled and checked individually before packing. If you are choosing between this and a plated piece, our guide to titanium steel, 925 silver and gold plating sets out what each one is and how they age.
