SayLaVee Jewelry Guide & FAQ

Because every piece tells a story—and we want yours to last.

14K Gold-Filled

Our 14k & 18K gold-filled pieces are crafted to bring you the look and feel of fine gold without the luxury price tag. Unlike traditional gold plating, gold-filled jewelry contains a thick layer of 14K gold pressure-bonded to a core of high-quality jeweler’s brass. It has 100x more gold than plated jewelry, making it more durable and resistant to tarnishing.

  • Water-resistant – safe for occasional exposure to water
  • Hypoallergenic – great for sensitive skin
  • Long-lasting shine – with proper care, gold-filled can last for years
  • USA-made base metals – high-quality, ethically sourced components

Perfect for commemorating special moments or layering for daily wear, our gold-filled collection offers timeless style with lasting value.

18K Gold PVD Stainless Steel

Our 18K PVD collection is made for life in motion. Each piece is crafted from high-grade stainless steel and coated using Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD)—a next-generation technique that fuses 18K gold to the surface in a way that’s 10x more durable than traditional plating.

  • Waterproof & sweatproof – shower, swim, and live in it
  • Tarnish-resistant – won’t fade or flake over time
  • Hypoallergenic – nickel-free and skin-friendly
  • Bold and lasting – built to hold up to real life

Ideal for those who never take their jewelry off, our PVD pieces offer a worry-free way to sparkle every day.

Some pieces may also feature genuine stones, glass beads, or enamel accents—always chosen with love, intention, and wearability in mind.

Question- Can I wear my jewelry in the water? Please change that answer to...

Yes – most of it!
All SayLaVee jewelry is designed with durability in mind, but water exposure depends slightly on the material:

18K Gold PVD Stainless Steel

Yes – 100%. This collection is waterproof, sweat-proof, and tarnish-resistant, so you can shower, swim, and live in it without worry. It’s made for everyday wear—even your wildest days.

14K & 18K Gold-Filled

Yes – with care. Gold-filled jewelry is water-resistant, meaning it can handle occasional splashes, washing hands, or light showering. However, to maximize its shine and lifespan, we recommend removing it before swimming, heavy sweating, or using harsh soaps and chemicals.

Yes! Our gold-filled and sterling silver pieces are made for real life—showers, workouts, washing dishes, even the occasional dip in the lake. Just remember: while they can handle life’s mess, they still deserve a little care to keep them shining.

  • Gently wipe with a soft cloth to remove oils or dirt
  • Store in a dry place (a pouch or box is perfect!)
  • Avoid direct sprays of perfume, lotions, or harsh chemicals
  • Use mild soap and water if needed—then dry thoroughly

For a longer-lasting glow, think of your jewelry like a favorite piece of clothing: the better you care for it, the longer it loves you back.
