In today’s world, the term “waterproof jewelry” is increasingly popular, but what does it really mean? How does it apply to the handcrafted sterling silver and 14k gold-filled pieces from Ebb + Flow? Let’s dive into what makes our tarnish-resistant jewelry not just stylish but also practical for your everyday adventures, including those that involve water – with a few tips on how to keep them looking their best.
Waterproof Jewelry: What’s the Real Story?
When you hear “waterproof jewelry,” it typically refers to pieces that can withstand exposure to water without tarnishing or losing their luster. While no jewelry is completely immune to wear and tear, at Ebb + Flow, our handcrafted jewelry is designed with durability in mind. Our sterling silver and 14k gold-filled pieces are resistant to water damage, making them ideal for those who love to keep their jewelry on while swimming, surfing, or enjoying a day at the beach.
Why Ebb + Flow Jewelry Stands Up to Water
Our jewelry is made from high-quality, water-resistant materials that resist corrosion and tarnishing. This means you can wear your Ebb + Flow pieces in the shower, the pool, or even the ocean without worrying about them losing their shine. However, it’s important to note that while our jewelry can handle a splash, prolonged exposure to water, especially saltwater or chemically treated water like pools and hot tubs, can accelerate wear over time.
Everyday Wearability Meets Waterproof Durability
One of the best things about our jewelry is that it’s designed for everyday wear. Whether you’re layering necklaces, stacking rings, or wearing your favourite bracelet, you can feel confident that our pieces are up to the challenge of daily life – including your water-filled adventures. However, when it comes to pools and hot tubs, the chemicals used to treat the water can be harsh on metals. We recommend removing your jewelry before taking a dip in chlorinated or saltwater pools to ensure they stay as beautiful as the day you got them.
Caring for Your Waterproof Jewelry
While our pieces are durable enough to handle water, a little extra care goes a long way. After swimming in the ocean or a pool, it’s a good idea to rinse your jewelry with fresh water and gently dry it with a soft cloth to remove any residual salt or chemicals. This simple step will help keep your pool-safe jewelry looking its best for years to come.
Why Ebb + Flow?
Choosing Ebb + Flow means choosing jewelry that’s not only beautiful but also built to last. Our pieces are designed to be part of your life’s adventures – whether you're enjoying a day at the beach or simply running errands. By following a few simple care tips, you can ensure that your long-lasting jewelry stays just as stunning as the day you first put it on.
