Traditionally, when men wore jewelry, it was symbolic of status, clanship or
bravery. Indeed, ornamentation for men in ancient times was used to enhance the
accessories that supported their roles in society, whether it was as a warrior,
a blacksmith or a king. Everything from helmets and swords to crest on shields
and rings for men raised metal craft to a level beyond what we would call
jewelry today.
It is the image of these times, when the metal that has become what we call
stainless steel today, was used to forge one of the ultimate symbols of manhood,
the sword. The same proud craftsmanship is brought to bear in the stainless
steel necklaces for men, the gleam of stainless steel connects to the underlying
emotion of courage that men find a natural extension of their essence.
The brilliant sheen of stainless steel is due to its chromium content; it must
contain at least 10.5% chromium to remain "stainless." This is the element that
reacts with the oxygen in the air to form an invisible surface layer that
prevents corrosion. The higher the amount of chromium, the more resistant the
material will be to corrosion.
For those with allergies, the best stainless steel jewelry is made without
nickel, making it magnetic in nature. There are many people who have allergies
to nickel metal and hence, have turned to stainless steel jewelry. In modern
times, it is the hypo allergenic properties of stainless steel that made it the
metal of choice for surgical instruments and naturally evolved to be the metal
best for jewelry used in body piercing.
But the designs crafted by jewelers today are far from the sterile concept of
surgical steel; stainless steel jewelry appeals to a wide variety of men who
like the idea of wearing a stainless steel necklace, bracelet or chain because
it is definitively masculine, a nearly indestructible alloy.

of the strength and beauty of working with high quality grade of stainless
steel. The line and form of our stainless steel bracelets, necklaces and chains
