What should you look for when buying jewelry?

Choosing the material is the first and most important decision. Stainless steel remains color-stable for years, handles water well, and is inexpensive. Anyone expecting intrinsic value is poorly advised here.

With sterling silver, you pay for the aesthetics with regular polishing, as tarnishing is part of it. Gold-plated brass starts off warmest and wears thin first at points of friction.

Durability can be recognized by details, not price. Solder joints without burrs, a clasp that audibly clicks into place, and closed jump rings are the three checkpoints for which no expert knowledge is required.

For classification, clarity is needed: this category is intended for wearing. Only solid gold has investment character, at a correspondingly different price. Fashion jewelry made of stainless steel covers everyday use, water, and frequent wearing well.

Material, dimensions, and prices at a glance

Showering, swimming, and sports do not harm stainless steel; it does not tarnish. For reference, the values from the Corelune range.

How do you keep jewelry looking beautiful for a long time?

Anyone who wears jewelry daily collects skin oils and care residues, and that is exactly what makes surfaces dull. Creams and perfume belong on the skin before the piece is put on, not after. Anyone who wears several pieces in rotation additionally distributes the strain.

When does wearing damage jewelry pieces?

Anyone who wears jewelry daily should be aware of three situations in which the risk increases significantly. Creams, perfume, and hairspray should be applied before the piece is put on, not after. A quick effort before these situations is enough to avoid the majority of typical damage.

How do you wear jewelry without it looking overloaded?

Those who combine should decide on one metal tone and stick with it, at least at the beginning. Two pieces need a clear difference in size or length, otherwise they compete with each other. Nothing more is needed, because combining is a question of spacing and color, not rules.

What mistakes are made when buying jewelry?

With jewelry, a poor choice rarely costs a lot of money, but it repeats itself if the cause remains unclear. When giving a gift, the decision is often made according to one's own taste rather than that of the recipient. Those who orient themselves toward what they wear anyway are significantly more likely to be right.

Frequently asked questions

How do smaller online providers differ?

Above all, in their assortment focus. Some carry solid gold and silver with material value, others like Corelune carry stainless steel for everyday life. The comparison is only worthwhile within the same material group.

How do I measure quality at an online shop?

By the completeness of the information: base metal, dimensions in millimeters, coating thickness, return period. Anyone who mentions all four has nothing to hide. Whoever omits one of them, usually does.

What can Corelune not do?

Solid gold, certified stones, custom engravings, and repairs. Those who need this are better off with a provider that has a workshop. We cover everyday jewelry made of stainless steel between €15 and €45.
