Our Materials
At Indigo Made, every material is chosen with intention. We carefully select and hand-assemble our pieces to ensure they’re made for real, everyday wear. Here’s what goes into your favorites.
Quality you can feel. Style you can trust.
14/20 Gold-Filled — Our Forever Staples
Our Signature Chains are crafted in 14/20 gold-filled metal — the highest quality alternative to solid gold.
• What it is: A thick layer of 14k gold permanently bonded to a jeweler’s brass core.
• Why it’s special: It contains 100x more gold than standard gold plating.
• The Benefit: Designed for daily life — shower-safe, sweat-proof, and made to stay shimmering for years without tarnishing or turning your skin green.
• Look for it in: Our Forever Staples — The Signature Box Chain, Paperclip Chain, and Huggies.
Our gold-filled Forever Staples are designed for permanence. For seasonal and curated designs, we use high-quality gold layering techniques.
Premium Gold Finishes
For our Monthly Edits and curated designs, we use premium gold finishes over durable base metals like stainless steel or brass.
• What it is: A high-quality base metal finished in 14k or 18k gold using professional gold-layering or PVD techniques.
• Why it’s special: Treated with a protective coating designed to resist fading and support everyday wear.
• The Benefit: You get the rich look of real gold in thoughtfully designed pieces made to express the moment.
• Look for it in: Monthly Charm Edits, dainty studs, and finished necklaces.
These pieces are designed for seasonal expression — we recommend removing them before prolonged water exposure to preserve their finish over time
Our Always Standard

• Lead & Nickel Free: Hypoallergenic components designed for sensitive skin.
