Our Sterling Silver earrings are rhodium plated which are less likely to tarnish compared to untreated sterling silver earrings. Rhodium is a rare and highly durable metal that belongs to the platinum group and perfect for creating a protective layer which enhances the appearance of the jewellery with a shiny finish and also acts as a barrier that helps prevent tarnishing and protects the underlying Sterling Silver. While rhodium plating provides resistance to water, it's still advisable to remove your earrings if you swim in a chlorinated pool every day, but the occasional swim won't harm your jewellery.

Our gold plated Sterling Silver earrings are made with a thick micron of 14 karat gold which will last years when looked after. When it comes to swimming in chlorinated water, this can accelerate wear on the gold plating over time. While gold plating provides resistance to water, it's still advisable to remove your earrings if you swim in a chlorinated pool every day, but the occasional swim won't harm your jewellery.
