Ceramic is a highly durable, lightweight, and scratch-resistant material. It is hypoallergenic and retains its color and finish over time. Ceramic bands are easy to maintain. Clean with mild soap and water, then dry with a soft cloth. Avoid exposing the band to harsh chemicals, including bleach and chlorine. Ceramic is highly scratch-resistant but not entirely scratch-proof. Normal wear and tear may result in minor surface scratches over time. Although durable, ceramic can be brittle and may break or chip if subjected to hard impacts or dropped from significant heights. Handle with care to avoid damage.
Ion plated Tungsten in rose, yellow, white, black, blue or brown is more difficult to scratch than traditional gold and silver. Plating can be damaged through contact with an abrasive surface or substance, chemicals, and hard surfaces (metal, wood, tile, etc). Plating can also be damaged by frequent exposure to hard water, or repeated contact with moderately hard surfaces.
