The Materials

Made from the earth.
For women in it.

Every LIANA piece is made from materials that carry meaning before they carry memory. Not chosen for beauty alone. Chosen for what they represent.

01

925 Sterling Silver.
Oxidised.

Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver — the highest grade used in fine jewelry. The remaining 7.5% is copper, added for durability. It is the same standard used by the world's most respected jewellers.

LIANA uses oxidised sterling silver. Oxidation is a deliberate darkening of the metal — achieved through a controlled chemical process that deepens the surface to near-black. This is not a coating. It is a transformation of the metal itself.

Oxidised silver does not pretend to be perfect. It carries its history in its surface. It darkens where it has been touched. It lightens where it has been worn. Over time, it becomes more itself — and so do you.

Care note Oxidised silver develops a patina with wear. This is character, not damage. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, perfume, and harsh chemicals to preserve the dark finish.
02

18k Gold Vermeil.
2.5 microns.

Gold vermeil is real gold — electroplated over sterling silver to a thickness of at least 2.5 microns. LIANA uses exactly 2.5 microns of 18 karat gold. This is the upper threshold of quality in vermeil production.

18 karat means 75% pure gold. It is warm, rich, and resistant to tarnish. At 2.5 microns, the gold layer is substantial enough to wear daily without fading — provided it is cared for.

The gold in LIANA pieces is not decoration. It is interruption. A thread of warmth running through darkness. The fracture where light enters. Worn against skin that has earned its own stories.

What vermeil is not Vermeil is not gold-filled and not gold-plated. Gold-plated jewelry uses a base metal — not silver. Gold-filled uses a mechanical bonding process with a thinner layer. Vermeil is the fine jewelry standard — real gold, real silver, real quality.
03

Salt & Pepper
Diamonds.

A salt & pepper diamond is a natural diamond that carries visible inclusions — dark carbon deposits, internal fractures, clouds of mineral. The traditional diamond industry classifies these as imperfections and prices them accordingly.

LIANA does not.

Every salt & pepper diamond is formed over billions of years beneath the earth's surface, under conditions of extreme pressure and heat. Its inclusions are not flaws in the making. They are evidence of the making. They are proof that something extraordinary happened — and left a mark.

No two salt & pepper diamonds are identical. Each one carries a different constellation of inclusions — a different history. When you wear one, you wear something that has never existed before and will never exist again. That is not imperfection. That is identity.

A flawless diamond Beautiful. Predictable. Identical to the one before it.
A salt & pepper diamond True. Unrepeatable. Carries its history in its body.

LIANA is for women who know the difference — and choose truth.

04

RJC Certified.
Jaipur, India.

Every LIANA piece is handcrafted in a Responsible Jewellery Council certified workshop in Jaipur, India — one of the world's oldest centers of fine jewelry craft.

RJC certification is the gold standard of ethical production in the jewelry industry. It covers human rights, labour standards, environmental responsibility, mining practices, and full supply chain traceability. It is independently audited. It cannot be self-declared.

We chose this workshop not because certification was required. Because it was right. The hands that make your piece are paid fairly, work in safe conditions, and take pride in what they build. That matters. Because what touches your skin should be made with care for the person who made it — not only the person who wears it.

From the earth.
For the woman in it.

We live in a time of artificiality. Generated images. Synthetic voices. Optimised surfaces. Things made to look real without being real.

LIANA is made from materials that were formed in the earth — over billions of years, under pressure, in darkness. Silver pulled from rock. Gold refined by fire. Diamonds born from carbon under conditions we cannot recreate.

There is something grounding about wearing something real. Something that came from the earth before it came to you. In a world that increasingly asks you to exist in the abstract — a piece of mineral against your skin is an anchor.

You are made of the same things. Carbon. Pressure. Time. A history that left marks.

Wear what is real.
