How to Choose Jewelry That Will Stand the Test of Time

How to Choose Jewelry That Will Stand the Test of Time

When you are picking out a piece of jewelry, there are a few things to look out for. A statement piece or costume jewelry can be fun but may restrict you in terms of wear-ability. It can be tempting to buy multiple pieces of inexpensive jewelry, so you have options, but they likely won’t last very long. Ideally, you may want to choose pieces from Adina Eden that will last a lifetime and beyond, which is possible with a few strategies.

Choose Quality Materials

Avoid plated jewelry. When you first buy the piece, it may resemble real gold or silver, but the plating will wear off quickly. Underneath this plating is usually copper or brass, both of which oxidize and tarnish quickly. Those materials are the ones that will leave your skin stained green. It might be cheap, but you’ll need to continuously re-purchase jewelry, and it won’t maintain its look for very long.

Choose real silver or sterling silver pieces that do not oxidize when exposed to the elements such as those at Fjewellery.co.uk. It’s the quality over quantity mindset that will allow you to keep your jewelry forever and not need to rebuy. You can even then pass those items onto a loved one eventually. In the long run, you’ll spend a lot less money as well.

Be Wary of Trends

Trends change with the seasons, and purchasing jewelry that’s in fashion today means it may not be tomorrow. Consider the chunky, plastic-look jewelry that was popular in the 90s. Nowadays, it looks gaudy and cheap. Even if you love embracing new trends, don’t expect your pieces to be wearable in a few years. Instead, go for classic, timeless pieces that never go out of style. Silver bangles, diamond studs, and dainty gold hoops will always look good and classy.

Another great idea is to invest in a high-quality silver or gold chain. It will allow you to swap out pendants whenever you want without having to buy a whole new jewelry piece. That way, you can still inject modern fashion into your classic piece.

Choose Jewelry with Sentiment

The jewelry pieces that people keep the longest are those with sentimental value. You’ll likely keep it forever if you receive a ring or bracelet on a special occasion or event. If you are picking out jewelry for a reason, it will retain that sentimental value and remain in your jewelry box for a very long time. Maybe you’re buying a ring to celebrate a wedding anniversary or your child’s graduation. Regardless of the occasion, when you’re picking out jewelry for a special occasion, you’re less likely to grab the cheapest option and more likely to put thought into it. Look for beautiful options at sydney jewellery.

Even if you decide to choose an eclectic or unique piece rather than a classic piece, it will still stand the test of time. The great thing about owning sentimental pieces is that every time you put it on, it will take you back to a special moment.
