Quality Questions 

Q. Are your items real silver? 
A. Yes, our items are 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish unless otherwise noted on the product description. 

Q. What is Sterling Silver? 
A. Silver is a precious metal and, much like gold, is too fine to be utilized in a 100% pure form. To make it durable enough for use in jewelry, pure silver, which has a .999 fineness (99.9%), is often alloyed with small quantities of copper (7.5%). The copper is added to strengthen the silver and the resulting product is .925 sterling silver (92.5%). This alloy is strong enough to be used in jewelry. 

Q. What is Rhodium and Rhodium finish? 
A. Rhodium is a metal that is a member of the platinum family. In its natural state Rhodium is found to be liquid, not solid like platinum. In its liquid state Rhodium can be applied to gold, sterling silver, base metals or other alloys to give it the shiny white surface of platinum but at a fraction of the cost. The rhodium coats the silver to enhance shine and durability. This metal top layer is usually applied using a process known as electroplating.

Jewelry Maintenance

Q. How do I clean my jewelry? 
A. We recommend using a silver polishing cloth. We do NOT recommend cleaning the items with liquid sterling silver cleaner or silver polish. If the items are exposed to these cleaning products the rhodium finish will be damaged. 

Q. Can I wear my item while washing my hands (In the shower, etc.)? 
A. Yes you may wear the item while coming in contact with water, but we do not suggest it. Soaps and lotions can cause build up on the stones reducing brilliance. Also, common household chemicals such as anti-bacterial soap can cause the Rhodium finish to be worn away. A good common rule to follow with jewelry is: Last thing to put on before you leave and the first thing to take off when you get home. 

Q. Will these rings turn my finger green? 
A. No, in almost all cases, these rings will not turn your finger green. However, if a person has a naturally high acidity level to their skin, it is possible for their finger to "turn green" from silver or gold jewelry, especially when the weather is warm and humid. This "green finger effect" may also be an allergic reaction to alloy elements in sterling silver or gold. In some cases, the alloys used to make jewelry more durable, may react with your body chemistry, causing a harmless green or black discoloration on the skin. The rhodium plating that can be found on many of our pieces serves not only to make the jewelry look beautiful but also acts as a defensive layer, preventing this reaction from happening. Another reason for skin discoloration may be the use of lotions, soaps or chemicals that come in contact with your skin on an everyday basis (i.e.: antibacterial soap and household cleaning supplies). A good common rule to follow with jewelry is: Last thing to put on before you leave and the first thing to take off when you get home. 

Q. Can I have a ring sized? 
A. We do not recommend sizing the item because the heat that it takes to size the item could possibly alter the quality of the gemstones. If you do decide to have your ring sized by a professional jeweler, once the ring has been altered it cannot be returned for a refund or exchange.
