What is the difference between .925 Sterling Silver and Silver Tone? Do they tarnish? 
Our Sterling Silver is 92.5% pure silver, the highest possible for fashion jewelry subject to everyday wear. Sterling Silver does tarnish over time, but proper cleaning will remove this unwanted effect. Our products described as Silver Tone are Rhodium Plated, which does not tarnish like Sterling Silver. However, platings of any kind will wear over time depending on amount of use and care. We recommend removing your jewelry before washing your hands or when it in contact with any cleaning products or harsh chemicals. We also recommend regular cleaning to keep your jewelry looking its best.

How can I clean my jewelry?
Wipe metal with a dry, soft, clean, 100% cotton cloth. Ensure that your jewelry is completely dry. Avoid soaking in water or using heat, steamers or ultrasonic cleaners. Don't use jewelry cleaners or other chemicals. Wipe stones with a damp cloth to remove perspiration, oil or any other residue. For regular cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth. Dry completely with a soft cloth. Avoid heat, hot water, steamers or ultrasonic cleaners along with cosmetics and hairsprays. Don't soak in water.

What is your product guarantee? 
If within 30 days of your purchase, you are not satisfied with any item that your ordered, we will either replace it or refund it, excluding shipping and handling charges. Some restrictions may apply. Please read our Return/Exchange policies. 

Do you have a print catalog? 
We do not have a printed catalog, but our complete product line can be found on our website. We receive new arrivals regularly and our website is updated daily. In addition, we have a weekly email newsletter that informs you of our new sales events, new collections, coupon codes and much more. You may sign up for our emails by clicking the "Newsletter" icon located to the left of the search bar on every page or you can click on the footer "Sign-up for our e-mail list to get exclusive deals!" located in the bottom left corner of every page.

Is the jewelry offered on your website nickel free? 
The benefit of having nickel is to protect the brass base metal on Rhodium plated bands. In addition, the nickel increases the brightness. Most of our products have nickel-plating in the center layer and so there is no direct contact to the skin. Also, the percentage of nickel is well within the standards, allergic reactions are rare. 


How do I determine my ring size? 
Please visit our Ring Size Chart located under the useful info found by clicking on the link.

I do not see half sizes in your store. Will you help me in resizing them for me? 
Unfortunately, we do not sell half sizes for the rings sold on our website and we are currently unable to re-size them for you. We highly recommend that you buy one size up from your desired half size. For example, if your size is 5.5, we recommend a size 6 since the size may vary depending on the style of the ring and the width of the band.

What is cocktail jewelry? 
Introduced in the 1920s, cocktail jewelry or fashion jewelry is made with imitation diamonds or gemstones. Unlike a genuine diamond, cocktail jewelry is more affordable but still offers the same glitz and glamour you are looking for.

What is Rhodium Plating?
Rhodium is a precious metal, a member of the platinum family. Rhodium plating is used on jewelry to provide a surface that will resist scratches and enhance shine and durability.  It gives silver a bright, platinum sheen look.

Why has my finger "turned green" and how do I fix it?
Please do not blame the silver or a manufacturer of silver jewelry.  The green color is actually caused by oxidation and all silver will oxidize, it's also what gives silver a tarnished look.  In most cases, the reason may be lotions, soap, or chemicals that come into contact with your skin on an everyday basis.  This can easily be removed with soap and water.  In some cases, the alloys used to make fine fashion jewelry more durable may react with your body chemistry, especially when the weather is hot and humid, causing a harmless green or black discoloration on the skin. Also, if a person has a naturally high acidity level in his/her skin, it is possible for his/her finger to "turn green" from silver or gold jewelry. A solution to this problem is to clean your silver jewelry as often as possible with a polishing cloth. After about a week or two, the reaction should stop occurring. As an alternative to silver jewelry, we recommend stainless steel jewelry.  Stainless steel is clean, modern, non-hypoallergenic, untarnishable, extremely strong, and comfortable.

Would you recommend that I resize another ring if you don't carry my size?
First and foremost, we always recommend that you buy the ring that fits closest to your ring size. If we do not have your size in stock, however, and you would rather resize the ring, we advise you to purchase a ring in a size larger than you would normally wear. Buying a larger size normally allows for an easier resizing process.  In addition, we recommend that you seek a reputable jeweler to assist you in resizing your ring. Another option may be to purchase a ring band adjuster, found at any jewelry specialist or large jewelry retailers
