Information about HoS pieces

Production process

All HoS pieces are handmade in Grand Bazaar, Istanbul by local artisans using time-honored traditions. We usually ship orders within a week. However, per our sustainability principles, we produce made-to-order. This gives us flexibility with customizations and lets us restrain idle production. Yet, occasionally, sourcing gemstones at our standard takes longer time. Therefore, we declare a 2 weeks production time policy.

Care instructions

We craft HoS pieces to last. However gemstones are wonders of nature that keep breathing. We appreciate new colors they bring to life after spending years with its owner. But, if you want to keep their initial condition, there are things you can do. Wear your perfume before wearing your piece and if you sweat while wearing it, wipe with a wet cloth after taking it off.

Measurement and customization

We work with gemstones the way nature allows us. As no two gemstones are the same, no two HoS pieces are the same and as a results approximate measurements provided above might slightly vary. If you have a preference about the size of a piece, let us know by leaving a note in your order and we will craft your piece accordingly at no additional cost.

How differently we apply gold over silver

1-micron 24k gold filled over 925 sterling silver

All of our metal pieces including our patented HoS Lock™ are 925 sterling silver. For all gold, white gold, and pink gold models we apply a 1-micron 24k gold fill over 925 sterling silver. The only exception to this is our black pieces. They are 1-micron rhodium filled over 925 sterling silver.

Using only standard and valuable metals appreciates the value of your piece and makes it a timeless invesment.

Difference between gold-fill over silver and others

We craft all of our metal pieces by filling with 1-micron 24k gold over 925 sterling silver. This is done by applying a real layer of gold over the silver and it's fundamentally different from alternatives such as gold-washing. Applying a real layer of gold increases the value and durability of your piece. This type of filling offers a great look for years before it requires re-plating, while alternatives on the other hand starts washing out after a few uses.
