Sizing and Styling

Solid gold and platinum naturally withstand water, oxygen, and chemicals, however, they can get scratched over time with wear. To increase your jewelry’s longevity remove before doing any hard labor or cleaning with harsh chemicals like bleach. To clean your jewelry gently scrub your jewelry with mild soap and water using either a soft brush or a soft cloth. For tough messes, you can soak your jewelry overnight in a cup of soapy water. Check out our Care Guide for more information.

Not sure of your size? Our Ring Sizer comes with a sizing card to help you determine your correct size before you buy.

*Please note that the front stud of your original flatback was made to fit the backing length you chose. They are not interchangeable. If you need a different size you will have to order a new Flatback.
