Jewelry Care Guide

At Eleanor Jewelry, we use a range of premium materials to create pieces that stay beautiful for years. Depending on the style, your jewelry may be made from Surgical Stainless Steel 316L, S925 sterling silver, 14K real gold, 18K real gold, or a combination of these materials. For each item, please check the product description to see exactly what materials are used.

A Closer Look at Our Materials

S925 Sterling Silver
S925 is made of 92.5% pure silver blended with 7.5% alloy for strength. Pure silver is naturally soft, so adding a small amount of other metals gives your jewelry better durability while keeping its bright, classic shine. It’s a popular choice for rings, earrings, and pendants because it stays stunning with proper care.

Surgical Stainless Steel 316L
316L is a premium, skin-friendly metal often used in medical environments. It is extremely resistant to rust, fading, and tarnish, making it great for everyday wear. It also handles water well and is gentle on sensitive skin. This material is perfect for customers who want long-lasting jewelry with minimal upkeep.

14K Real Gold
14K gold contains 58.5% pure gold mixed with strong alloys, giving it a beautiful warm glow while keeping it durable for daily use. It’s less likely to scratch or bend compared to higher-purity gold, making it ideal for pieces that you wear often.

18K Real Gold
18K gold has 75% pure gold, giving it a deeper, richer color. It offers a luxurious shine while still being strong enough for everyday wear. This is a great option for customers who love a more premium, high-gold finish without compromising practicality.

Mixed-Material Designs
Some of our pieces combine these materials—for example, stainless steel bases with real gold plating, or sterling silver paired with gold elements. This allows for the perfect balance of shine, durability, and comfort. Always check the product description for the exact combination used in your piece.

To help you maintain the beauty of your jewelry and enjoy a worry-free wearing experience, follow these simple care instructions:

1. Avoid Chemicals:

  • Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals such as perfumes, lotions, and household cleaners. These substances can tarnish and damage your jewelry over time.

2. Avoid Long Exposure to Water

  • Our jewelry is fine with a little water, but leaving it underwater for too long can cause it to tarnish faster. Keep it dry for lasting shine!

3. Avoid Bumps and Scratches:

  • Be cautious when engaging in activities that could potentially cause impact or scratches to your jewelry. Store your rings separately to prevent them from scratching against each other.

4. Avoid Wearing It When You Sweat a Lot:

  • Perspiration can contribute to tarnishing, so it's advisable to remove your jewelry during strenuous physical activities or on hot, humid days.

5. Wipe with a Soft Cloth:

  • After wearing, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove any dirt or oils. This will help maintain its luster and shine.

6. Sleep-friendly, but handle with care!

  • Our jewelry is fine to sleep in, but taking it off before bed helps prevent bending or misshaping over time. A little extra care keeps it looking perfect!

By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your Eleanor Jewelry pieces remain as stunning as the day you received them. We are committed to providing you with hypoallergenic, Nickel-free, Cadmium-free, and Lead-free jewelry for a worry-free wearing experience.
