Bonjour,

Serait il possible d\'avoir un tableau récapitulatif pour chaque différentes finitions qui nous permettrait de savoir comment ces différents métaux vieillissent dans le temps ? (s\'ils ternissent, noircissent, s\'écaillent, aucun changement ....)

Merci beaucoup et très bonne journée

Cordialement

Admin :
Bonjour, il est difficile de répondre à cette question car cela dépends des métaux, du plaquage, du vernis et des différents produits utilisés qui sont différents d\'un fournisseur à l\'autre et d\'un produit à l\'autre... Nous pouvons seulement vous conseiller de préférer les produits d\'origines européennes qui sont globalement de meilleur qualité ou bien d\'acheter des produits notés HQ, gold filled ou argent 925.
