Metal Types

Each piece in our Signature Range is crafted in solid precious metals, never hollow, filled or plated. At TMC, we primarily work with 14 karat gold, 18 karat gold and platinum (PT950). We also utilise 9 karat gold and zirconium for men’s wedding rings, and sterling silver for select fine jewellery pieces.

Each metal has its own characteristics, including colour, hardness and durability, allowing you to choose the metal that best suits your aesthetic and lifestyle.
