After the war, Trifari realized that customers demanded longer lasting metal jewelry, and set out to create their own, lower cost, non-tarnishing metal alloy. They succeeded and named it Trifanium.

TRIFANIUM - In 1947 Trifari patented a shiny metal alloy which didn’t tarnish. Silver in color, it could be plated with gold to create a ‘golden-toned Trifanium’. From the 1950s onwards Trifanium formed the base of almost all of Trifari’s jewelry. It has lived up to its credentials. It’s very rare to find a Trifari piece from the 1950s or later on which the metal has tarnished or corroded.
