Materials & Care

Creative jewelry starts with the details: a shape you love, a finish that works with your wardrobe, and a fit that feels right. Use this guide to choose pieces for everyday styling and care for the materials in each design.

Know the materials in your piece

Read the product details for the base metal, finish, stones and other decorative elements. Gold-tone and silver-tone describe color, not metal purity. A plated finish is different from a solid precious metal.

For earrings, check the post or ear wire, backing and decorative drop separately. A stainless steel ear wire or a sterling silver post does not mean the whole earring is made from that material. Cubic zirconia is a man-made stone, not a diamond.

If you avoid a particular metal or need a material detail confirmed, ask us about the exact product before ordering.

Find a shape that fits your day

  • Studs: compare the face size, post and backing for a close-to-the-ear look.
  • Hoops: check the diameter, thickness and closure against a pair you already wear.
  • Drop and dangle earrings: compare the full drop length and pendant width.
  • Statement earrings: use the listed dimensions to judge their scale with your outfit. Close-up photos can make a piece look larger.

Check whether the listing is for one piece, a pair or a set, and choose the exact option you want. For necklaces and bracelets, check the length, fastening and any stated adjustment range. Natural materials may vary in color or pattern when noted in the product details.

A simple care routine

Follow the care instructions for the individual design. After wear, gently wipe jewelry with a soft, dry cloth. Store pieces separately to help reduce rubbing and tangling.

Apply perfume and lotions before putting jewelry on, and keep household cleaners away from it. Remove pieces before swimming or showering unless their specific care guidance says otherwise. Avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh polishing products on plated finishes, beads, pearls and shell.

Make it part of your everyday style

Try a small stud or hoop with a relaxed outfit, or let a colorful drop be the detail that changes the look. Handmade and beaded designs are one part of the MemoEdge collection, alongside other shapes and finishes to explore.
