Jewelry Sizing Tips

 

The best way to determine what size you need is to measure the entire length of your favorite piece of jewelry at home including the clasp.

 

You can also use a string wrapped around you wrist just below the wrist bone.  Add 1 inch for comfort (1/2” for children).  For watches, determine how you prefer to wear your watch, tight above the wrist bone or loose below the wrist bone, like a bracelet.  Remember, the larger the beads the more length you will need.  Measure the string with a ruler. 

 

Extenders are available for all bracelets and necklaces (except toggle closures).  If you are buying a gift or would like the option to adjust the length, please contact us for a quote for an extender to be added to any items.

 

Since we are custom jewelry designers you can request any custom size.  Standard sizes for bracelets are 6 ½ - 7 ½ and prices in this range do not change.  You may incur additional charges for larger sizes, depending on additional materials necessary to complete your design.  We will give you a quote of additional charges for your approval prior to assembling the piece.

Jewelry care instructions

 

Store jewelry in an airtight plastic container or zip lock bag.  You will receive a gift box with each Splash of Shine jewelry set. 

The best way to keep your jewelry clean is to use a polishing cloth.  Polishing cloths can be used to gently rub tarnish from silver. Try not to polish crystals, gemstones, or shells directly.

 

You can also clean crystals and gemstone by using a mild solution of warm water and dish soap.  Make sure you rinse will and pat dry.  This is especially effective for getting finger prints and body oils off of Swarovski crystals.

 

Do not use silver cleaners or other cleaners as this may be too abrasive for gemstones and other beads.

 

You should always put your jewelry on last to avoid coming in contact with chemicals.

 

Avoid contact with

Hairspray

Sun block and oils

Household cleaners

Pool and seawater

 

Avoid wearing your jewelry when
