MOTIF
The plus sign is the motif that adorns our handcrafted products. It represents the positivo experiences that led to our House’s creation. Our products are designed to inspire you to adopt a positivo outlook and spread positivity to those around you.
PRODUCTS
If it has the positivo plus sign, you can trust that it is among the best. Only first-class materials are involved in the positivo production process.
The finest natural, lab-grown gemstones, and cultured pearls are set in our pieces. They will never contain things like cubic zirconia and faux pearls.
Our jewels are made using only precious metals. Production is either in 950 Platinum (Pathos), 750 Gold (18K) (Ethos), 18K Gold Vermeil (Gold on Sterling Silver Base) (Metal), 925 Sterling Silver (Metal), or 925 Sterling Silver with a Black Oxide finish (Metal).
With very few exceptions, we do not plate our Sterling Silver products. The natural metal is polished, will acquire a beautiful natural patina, and eventually will require maintenance ocassionally to remove tarnish. We do, however, plate select precious metal-based pieces in Black Rhodium and 18K Gold (Gold Vermeil Rose). For enhanced durability and visual pleasure, Gold Vermeil pieces have a Sterling Silver base and at least 4 microns of rich 18K Gold (the USA standard is 2.5 microns).
We only use Brass/Bronze (Mythos) materials in items like some buckles, buttons, and other such adormments. We DO NOT USE THESE BASE METALS IN OUR JEWELRY (including in our precious metal jewelry buckles).
Unless necessary due to design and engineering requirements, we do not produce the less expensive hollow jewelry and accessories. You will immediately see and feel the substantial difference between positivo and the others.
As you can see, positivo does not use second-class materials and methods in the making of our extraordinary pieces. We simply do not have the unmitigated gall to sell you substandard products impersonating high-priced, high-quality, high-fashion objects of desire.
In other words, positivo will never ask you to pay a STUPID PRICE for products that are INFERIOR, MASS-PRODUCED, MACHINE-MADE, CHEAP JUNK that is essentially COSTUME JEWELRY with a DESIGNER NAME!
positivo products have been designed to allow only us to test for authenticity and combat counterfeiting efforts.
All jewels, precious metals, and other products may require repair and cleaning from time to time. We recommend you have this done professionally.
