WATER-READY
Made for jewellery that doesn't need to be constantly taken off.
ELLA EVA
QUALITY & MATERIALS
Made beautifully. Made properly.
Jewellery made for real life.
We look beyond how a piece appears on day one. Materials, settings, links, clasps and finish are considered with everyday wear in mind — because jewellery should still feel good long after the first impression.
316L
STAINLESS STEEL
No plating where it matters.
Unplated 316L means there is no decorative plating layer to wear through or fade away.If it doesn’t meet the standard, it shouldn’t reach you.

04 · TESTED FOR REAL LIFE
We don’t just
inspect it.
We live in it.
Quality should hold up beyond the box, the photograph and the first wear.
Our extended wear programme puts selected pieces through repeated everyday, high-contact environments so we can assess how the material, finish, links, settings and clasp behave over time — not simply how they look on day one.

FOUNDER-LED · REAL-WEAR TESTING
Not saved for the box.
WHY WE TEST THIS WAY
Built from experience. Not specification alone.
Before ELLA EVA, Ella regularly wore sterling-silver jewellery from established brands.
Beautiful when new. But after around two months of everyday wear, she began noticing visible tarnishing and a finish that no longer looked the way it had on day one.
That wear was genuinely everyday: around 30 gym sessions, regular showers, work, cooking, washing-up and the repeated friction that comes from simply living in your jewellery.
No carefully controlled routine. No taking everything off whenever everyday life got messy.
This first-hand experience helped shape our testing philosophy. Wear can vary by piece, material, finish and how jewellery is used.

TEST 02
CLASP & CONSTRUCTION
OPEN · CLOSE · PULL · FLEX · INSPECT
The small details matter when you wear something every day.
CONSTRUCTION MATTERS
We test the part you rely on.
A beautiful stone means very little if the clasp, link or setting lets the piece down.
Our checks look beyond appearance. Closure, retention, movement and the surrounding construction are considered together so that the complete piece earns the ELLA EVA standard — not simply the material specification.
CLOSURE
Positive opening and closing.
RETENTION
Designed to remain secure in wear.
LINKS
Movement and connection points assessed.
SETTINGS
Stone security checked as part of QC.
AFTER THE WEAR TEST
We look again. Closely.
The test is only useful if the piece is assessed afterwards. We review the same areas that matter in everyday ownership, comparing condition and function against the starting point.
01
FINISH
How the visible surface has changed through repeated wear.
02
COLOUR
Any visible change in the appearance of the piece.
03
CLASP
Opening, closing and retention are checked again.
04
LINKS
Connection points and movement are reviewed after wear.
05
SETTINGS
Stone security and surrounding construction are inspected.
DOCUMENTED WEAR
Day one. Day sixty.
The point isn’t simply to say a piece was tested. It’s to look closely at what changed — and what didn’t.

BASELINE INSPECTION

FINAL INSPECTION
The same areas are reviewed again after the extended wear programme.
If it doesn’t meet the standard,
it shouldn’t reach you.

MATERIALS, CHOSEN WITH PURPOSE
Material is part of the design.
05 · MATERIALS WITH A PURPOSE
Chosen for the piece. Not just the specification.
Every material has strengths. Every piece has a purpose. We choose according to how the jewellery is designed, constructed and meant to be worn.
For pieces built around repeat wear.
We prioritise unplated 316L stainless steel for suitable high-contact pieces because there is no decorative plating layer to gradually wear through.
We choose according to how
the piece is meant to be worn.
06 · BEFORE IT REACHES YOU
Checked by hand. Finished with intent.
Before a piece is packed, we carry out a final quality check across the details that matter in everyday wear.
FINAL QUALITY CONTROL
The details matter. So we look closer.
01
SETTINGS
Stone security, alignment and smooth setting edges checked.
NO PRONGS CATCHING
02
LINKS
Connections and movement points reviewed for consistency.
03
CLASP
Opening, closing and retention checked before packing.
04
FINISH
Visible surfaces inspected for consistency and presentation.
05
FINAL CHECK
The complete piece is reviewed as one before packing.
THE DETAILS WE LOOK CLOSER AT
Small details. Big difference.
Quality control is about more than whether something looks beautiful from a distance. We inspect the areas that affect how a piece feels, moves and performs in everyday wear.
01
Stone alignment.
Each stone is reviewed for consistent placement, presentation and security.
✦
NO PRONGS CATCHING
02
Smooth setting edges.
We check that exposed setting edges feel smooth and are not unnecessarily catching during normal handling.
03
Clasp security.
Closure, retention and surrounding connection points are reviewed before the piece is packed.
If it doesn’t meet the standard, it shouldn’t reach you.
WE MAKE IT RIGHT.
