No, that is a different process called 'Electroforming' which does not give the same resistance to organic pieces. With the process used by the brand, the plant disappears after casting it, as it gets burned by the metal. All the jewelry pieces in Nora Capò collections are made of solid metal, silver 925, or 14kt or 18kt gold.

"Made with Real Plants" means using leaves, branches, seeds, and more organic elements and putting them into the Casting process. The Casting process consists of immersing the plants in plaster that covers the organic piece, getting its shape. Once dried, the plaster is ready to welcome the melted metal that will burn the natural elements and take its space inside the dry plaster. The result? It's a solid piece with the exact same shape of the plant inside the plaster.

All collections are crafted from either solid gold or silver 925. The Nora Capò brand adheres to the rules and regulations of the ÆDELMETALKONTROLLEN, (Force Technology) which verifies metal purity and ensures that the craftsmanship is legitimate. Some of the pieces are silver gold-plated, and this is always specified in the material section of each product. In rare cases, the base material may be bronze, and this information will also be indicated in the material section of the product page. For the Fine Jewellery line we use either 18kt or 14kt solid gold for our pieces. If you have a different material in mind for a bespoke piece, we would love to hear your ideas. At Nora Capò, we are always looking to improve and explore new materials.
