Unlike Athena, our products do not pop from their compound baths complete and whole. In order to enhance both their durability and beauty. Phoenix Electroforming has developed additional finishing processes.

First, a tarnish retardant agent has been added to the finishing process. It is far more effective and durable than the lacquer spray technique usually employed to prevent tarnish from forming on silver. Our retardant is applied chemically to ensure a long lasting luster on both our jewelry and objects.

Gold and silver are finished in many different ways to create special effectsour finished creations can appear as soft as satin, as piercingly bright as lightening, as gilttering as a sea of diamonds or a mixtureof all three.

To create this galactic illusion, a glittering Milky Way of silver, we have developed a special finish, our own unique technique , Milleluci, or "a thousand lights." When used along with other techniques, this finish adds a special textured luminescence that often highlights and further defines the details of a piece. The silver elephant's tusks and the inlays of our golden sarcophagus are but two examples of the contrasts in textural beauty that can be created by Milleluci.
