Jewelry That Doesn’t Need a Summer Break

Jewelry You Don’t Have to Tiptoe Around — That’s the Caroline Hjerpe Promise

Our pieces are made to last, meant to be worn every day, and loved forever.
That includes summer, of course.

So yes—go ahead and wear your 18k gold favorites all season long.

Here’s what to keep in mind as the days get warmer:

Washing your hands or hopping in the shower?
No need to take your rings off, and your necklace won’t get cloudy or tarnish. Solid 18k gold stays golden.
Sweat, sunscreen, and sunshine?
Still no problem. While sunscreen and lotions won’t damage your jewelry, they can leave a slight film that temporarily dulls the sparkle. A quick clean will bring back the shine—our cleaning guide makes it easy.
Heading into the ocean or taking a cold swim?
You might want to leave your rings on land. Fingers shrink in cold water, and that’s when jewelry can slip off. We’ve heard more than a few of those sad “lost ring” stories.
Wearing sterling silver?
It handles everyday wear and water well too, but it does appreciate a little extra care. Give it a gentle polish every now and then, and try not to leave it in steamy bathrooms or tossed in a salty beach bag for too long.
