Ensuring Quality is Top Priority

For your reference please see Khrysos Jewelry Manufacturer's Composition Certifications for 14K Gold and ASTM F-136 Titanium

Summary of Below Khrysos 14K Gold Jewelry Certification:

Metal composition breakdown

The important percentages:

* Gold (Au): 58.746%

* Pure gold is 24k = 100%

* 14k gold should be ~58.3%

This is right where it should be:

* Silver (Ag): 18.915%

* Copper (Cu): 21.071%

* Zinc (Zn): 1.178%

These metals together form a standard yellow gold alloy.

What is NOT present (very important for piercing/jewelry safety)

All of the following are below the limit of detection (essentially none):

x Nickel (Ni)

x Cadmium (Cd)

x Lead (Pb)

x Palladium (Pd)

x Rhodium (Rh)

x Chromium (Cr)

x Iron (Fe)

This is excellent and exactly what you want to see for body jewelry, especially for:

* babies

* children

* sensitive skin

* fresh piercings

What this tells you professionally:

* Legitimate 14k gold

* Safe alloy profile

* No nickel contamination

* Appropriate for piercing use

* Matches what reputable gold manufacturers produce

* This is not plated, not filled, and not cheap alloy gold.

Summary of Below Khrysos ASTM F-136 Titanium Jewelry Certification:

Certification of Compliance from Fort Wayne Metals

This certifies the raw titanium material used to manufacture jewelry.

Manufacturer: Fort Wayne Metals (medical-grade supplier)

Customer: Titanium Industries, Inc.

Product form: Round wire

Finish: Etched / Annealed

Country of origin: USA

DFARS compliant (US defense & medical standards)

The most important line (the headline)

Alloy: Ti-6Al-4V ELI

Specification: ASTM F136

This is the highest medical implant grade titanium.

Used for surgical implants Used for bone screws, plates, joint replacements This is the exact grade recommended for body jewelry

What “ELI” means (this matters)

ELI = Extra Low Interstitials

That means:

* Lower oxygen

* Lower nitrogen

* Lower hydrogen

Results in:

* Better biocompatibility

* Less irritation

* Better healing

* Safer for long-term implantation

This is better than standard Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM F1472).

Chemical composition (safety check)

Key elements listed:

* Titanium: Balance (main metal)

* Aluminum (Al): 6.025%

* Vanadium (V): 3.835%

These percentages are exactly within ASTM F136 limits.

What is NOT present (critical for clients)

x Nickel (none)

x Lead

x Cadmium

x Cobalt (below detection)

x Excess iron

This is why implant-grade titanium is so safe for:

* Babies

* Children

* Nickel-sensitive clients

* Fresh piercings
