About us
Have you ever taken off a ring, only to find that dreaded green circle around your finger? Or has your jewelry ever tarnished, going from a silver color to a copper? With Icy Baddie Jewelry, you don't have to worry about either of those problems. All of our jewelry is made of either 925 sterling silver or stainless steel, and is coated in 18K gold or rhodium, the rarest and most valuable metal on earth. All at an affordable price, we want you to look good- and be confident in the quality of your jewelry, not worrying about any tarnishing or green skin.
Why do we 18K gold/rhodium plate our 925 silver jewelry? One of the characteristics of silver is that it tarnishes over time, developing a dark patina. As a result, silver must be frequently polished in order to retain its shiny luster. 18K gold and rhodium, on the other hand, are highly tarnish resistant and do not corrode, stain or change color. By plating sterling silver, tarnishing can be avoided and the piece of jewelry remains lustrous much longer. Silver does not require plating, but there are many benefits in having sterling silver jewelry plated. Did you know, rhodium is the most expensive metal on the planet, and is extremely rare? It is hypoallergenic, extremely lustrous, withstands corrosion and is highly durable. All these qualities make rhodium perfect for jewelry, but due to the hardness and brittleness of the metal, as well as the very high cost, it cannot be used to make solid rhodium jewelry. The only way rhodium is used in jewelry is to plate other metals such as gold, platinum, brass, silver, and palladium, to name a few.
