Jewelry

Build a small jewelry collection with intention

Choose proportions first

Small hoops, slim chains and simple rings work well for everyday layering. Try different lengths together so necklaces do not sit at exactly the same point.

Understand materials

Gold-plated jewelry has a surface coating that can wear over time; solid gold and sterling silver have different care and price considerations. Read material descriptions carefully.

Keep the outfit balanced

With a high neckline, choose earrings or a bracelet rather than multiple short necklaces. With an open neckline, a pendant can create a clear focal point.

Care and storage

Keep pieces dry when possible, store chains separately to reduce tangling and follow the maker’s cleaning guidance, particularly for plated or gemstone items.
