HOW DO I CARE FOR MY JEWELLERY?

HOW DO I KEEP MY SILVER JEWELLERY CLEAN?
✦ Wearing silver will keep it looking nice, as once silver is put in a drawer, or in hot pools, it starts to oxidize/tarnish. To remove any tarnish use a silver polishing cloth or use a soft tooth brush and warm water.
HOW CAN I FIND MY RING OR NECKLACE SIZE?
✦ You can find our necklace and ring guide here. We recommend going up a size if you are between ring sizes. Please do not hesitate to reach out here if you are having troubles finding your size!
CAN I SWIM/SHOWER WITH MY JEWELLERY ON?
✦ With all jewellery, It is always recommended to remove before showering, exercising & swimming as over time, they can fade. All pieces can be worn in the shower and won't tarnish quickly, however to ensure your pieces last a lifetime it is recommended to avoid water as much as possible.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VERMEIL AND GOLD FILLED?
✦ Gold vermeil is similar to gold-plated jewelry but the difference is that the layer of gold is thicker (2.5 microns to be exact) and the metal underneath is sterling silver. Gold-filled jewellry, contrary to the name, is not actually filled with gold. Rather, a thick layer of gold is bonded to another metal, such as brass or copper which can often cause skin reactions.
