How to Care for Your Waterproof Aurelia Jewellery

How to Care for Your Waterproof Aurelia Jewellery

You’ve probably seen lots of jewellery being advertised as waterproof lately — but what’s the real story?

The Truth About “Waterproof” Jewellery

Jewellery & Water: What You Need to Know

Gold / Silver-Plated Jewellery — A fine layer of precious metal over a base metal like stainless steel or brass. With care, it lasts beautifully, but water (especially salt and chlorine) can cause the plating to fade more quickly.

Sterling Silver Jewellery — A classic choice that naturally tarnishes when exposed to air and moisture. Seawater can speed this up, so silver pieces often need regular polishing.

Solid Gold Jewellery — Tarnish-free and timeless, but chlorine and rough sand can still dull or scratch it over time.

Stainless Steel Jewellery — Strong, modern, and far more resistant to water and everyday wear than softer metals. A great choice for durable, everyday jewellery.


Aurelia’s Promise ✨

At Aurelia, we carefully choose materials designed to endure your everyday life while still feeling elegant and effortless.

Our jewellery is:
Water-Resistant — made with high-quality stainless steel, sterling silver, and gold plating, so you can live in it with confidence.

Finished with Care — designed for longevity with timeless style in mind.

We also use genuine semi-precious gemstones, chosen for their natural beauty and energy.


How to Care for Your Jewellery

Even the best jewellery benefits from a little love:
➡️ Rinse after swimming in salt or chlorine water.
➡️ Pat dry with a soft cloth (never leave damp).
➡️ Store in a pouch or box to avoid scratches.
➡️ Put on after perfumes or lotions to keep the shine fresh.
