CARING FOR YOUR JEWELLERY

To maintain the beauty of your jewellery, please remove them when you shower or going for a swim in a pool or to the beach. And also, to avoid perfume or makeup where they might come into direct contact with your jewellery. Keep them dry at all time.

Proper care is the key. As a general rule, your jewellery should always be the last thing you put on before going out and the first thing you take off when you reach home.

RING SIZE CHART

• Note that the circumference and diameter measurements match the inside edge of the ring.
• A KIND OOOF uses SG/CN/JP for ring sizes.

JEWELLERY DIMENSIONS

How to choose the jewellery material that suits you?
Will I be allergic?
Will the colour fade?

916 Gold
916 Gold, also known as 22K Gold has 91.6% of gold content within the alloy. 916 Gold is considered the most perfect for jewellery making as it is less malleable than pure 999 Gold. This precious metal also holds its value over time, making 916 Gold jewellery great investment pieces to treasure forever.

925 Sterling Silver
925 Sterling Silver consists of 92.5% of pure silver mixed with 7.5% of other metals (often copper or zinc) to create a more durable metal. This is different from silver plated jewellery, where a thin layer of silver is deposited over another base metal or alloy. When 925 Sterling Silver starts to oxidise, just wipe with a silver polishing cloth to restore shine. Most people do not have allergy reactions to 925 sterling silver.

Brass
Due to the softness of brass properties, brass jewellery are almost always plated, and the plating process increases endurance and durability, and makes the surface smooth and beautiful. It is normal for oxidation and discolouration to occur when the jewellery is worn for a prolonged period of time, and is in contact with body sweat. Alternate the wear of your jewellery pieces, and store them in zipper bags to reduce discolouration and extend the lifespan of these precious trinkets.

Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a lasting metal for jewellery. It is also hypoallergenic, excellent for individuals with allergies and sensitive skin. Stainless steel jewellery are long lasting, and its colour will not fade easily.

Plating Process
Gold plating is a method of depositing a thin layer of gold onto a base metal such as Silver or Brass using an electrochemical process. It is a rich and highly polished material that is perfect for jewellery or precious objects. The gold plating process gives the jewellery a smooth and beautiful finish, and also makes the surface durable and strong.

Rhodium Plated Jewellery
Rhodium is one of the rarest and most valuable precious metals. It is often used to plate jewellery because of its highly-reflective finish. It is also hypoallergenic.

Everyone's physique is different, and allergies are likely to be different as well. By understanding more of the above materials, you can pick the right jewellery that suits you most.

如何挑選適合自己的首飾材質? 會不會過敏? 會不會退色?

916/22K金
916 Gold，也稱為22K金，由高達91.6%的黃金及8.4%的合金製成。
916 Gold被認為是最完美的金飾材質，能夠創造出更多元的款式 。
因為它的柔軟度及延展性低於999純金，更容易維持首飾造型。
這種貴金屬也隨著時間的推移而保持其價值，使916 Gold 首飾成為值得永久珍藏的絕佳投資品。

925純銀
925銀是指含銀量達92.5%，國際上的標準純銀，千分之925的銀加入剩下千分之75的合金(常見的有銅，鋼)，使925純銀較硬有韌性。( 這與鍍銀首飾有很大不同，鍍銀首飾上有一層薄薄的銀沉積在另一種賤金屬或合金上 )。925純銀氧化後只要擦拭可恢復光澤，大多數人都不會對925純銀過敏 。

黃銅
黃銅延展性及韌性也比純銀更好，製作做法也更多元。由於黃銅特性比較軟，黃銅材質的商品幾乎都會電鍍，電鍍工藝將增加耐力以及持久性，並讓表面光滑美觀。長時間配帶汗水將會腐蝕而造成氧化及退色，是正常現象，建議有不同飾品交替配戴，做到基本保養收於夾鏈袋中，減少褪色現象。

不銹鋼
鋼材特性較硬具有抗腐蝕，抗氧化及耐高溫可以保存的最久的一種飾品用金屬，它也是低過敏性的，非常適合過敏和敏感皮膚的人。鋼製商品較易保存，銀色(鋼原本的顏色)款式沒有退色的問題。

電鍍工藝

鍍金
鍍金是使用電化學方法在諸如銀或黃銅的基底金屬上沉積薄金層的方法。它是一種豐富且高度拋光的材料。鍍金工藝將使其光滑美觀。一般會從接觸皮膚的部份開始退色 。

包金
包金和鍍金一樣內層為其他金屬，以高溫高壓將K金鍛壓至其他金屬上，表面硬度強而厚，因此較不會脫落變色。

鍍白金
鍍銠是一種稀有的銀白色堅硬耐腐蝕材料。它是最稀有和最有價值的貴金屬之一。鍍銠的目的有兩個，一個是保護貴金屬，增強其抗腐蝕和耐磨性，延長首飾的使用壽命及增亮。銠本身價值也比較昂貴，鍍銠是非常好的一種工藝，銠的穩定性和保持時間，都會比其他的電鍍工藝要來的好。

每個人的體質不同，過敏情形也很可能不同。
相信了解飾品素材之後，能挑選到更適合自己的飾品 。
