We will soon be releasing a range of stainless steel pendants that will be the answer for anyone needing a pendant that is completely tarnish proof.

As many of you know even the highest quality 'plated' pendants can tarnish when worn against the skin and there is no fool proof way of preventing this.
There are many different methods of plating, and different materials used for plating, that can prolong the life of the plated pendant, but ultimately ALL plated pendants can tarnish.

Using precious metals like silver and gold, that have no need for platings, will ensure a long lasting tarnish free appearance as they generally have no other layers of material underneath a plating to be exposed.
These materials can be very expensive and by their nature are usually very soft, which means that any engraving on its surface can be distorted and eventually wear away.

Unlike other pure tarnish proof materials like solid gold or solid silver, stainless steel is VERY hard and much, much cheaper.

This is why we have developed a new range of stainless steel pendants for you to be able to confidently offer your customers a more lasting engraved pendant.

This new range will be available from www.metaza.com over the next few months and will prove excellent value as a complete gift boxed item consisting of the stainless steel pendant and a rhodium plated chain and hook.

There will also be a very attractive Point Of Sale display available as an option for this range.

Due to prohibitive costs we decided to use a lower cost rhodium plated chain and hook, rather than stainless steel ones, with this range as this would have tripled the cost making it a far less attractively priced product for both you and your customers.

This way your customer will always have the option of upgrading the chain and hook to a more lasting/expensive solid silver option as they see fit, while their engraved pendant stays in perfect condition due to the hard, tarnish proof surface of the stainless steel pendant.

...these engraving machines are used within a personalised gift shop on the base where troops buy personalised/photo gifts to send back home...
