SIZING

If you are unsure of your ring size, there are various ways you can find out your size:

Option 1: Find out your ring size by getting sized by a jeweller (most accurate option)

Option 2: we are now offering free plastic ring sizers with any order - select 'size TBA' in the ring size dropdown and tick the 'free ring sizer' checkbox at the checkout.

If you know your ring size in a different format, you can use our ring size chart to convert your size to the Australian sizing

If you’ve ordered the wrong size ring, we do offer a resizing service at an additional fee. Please note, if your ring includes a gemstone, we might have to remake it from scratch, therefore it may take longer to complete your order. 

 

CARE

From opals to freshwater pearls, Argent pieces are delicate and precious and care should be taken when worn so as to avoid knocking or catching. 

Sterling silver

Sterling and fine silver can be scratched or bent out of shape if force is applied. They can also be damaged and become tarnished by contact with chemicals found in many household cleaners, cosmetics, perfumes and hair care products.

If tarnishing occurs clean with a polishing cloth, pad or polishing compound.

9ct gold

9ct gold does not tarnish as easily as sterling silver but as we do not coat our jewellery with chemical polishes or plating, they can sometimes tarnish in reaction to natural oils in your skin and contact with chemicals found in many household cleaners, cosmetics, perfumes and hair care products. 

If tarnishing occurs clean with a polishing cloth, pad or polishing compound.

Diamonds

The hardest of stones (and substances!) can take a knocking but is not indestructible so please take care of your diamond jewellery. Clean your pieces regularly and the safest method for cleaning diamond jewellery is a soft toothbrush and warm soapy water followed by a good rinse in hot water.

Gemstones

Some of our gemstones are on the higher end of the Mohs hardness scale (think sapphires, moissanites, rubies), however some, such as citrines, tanzanites, emeralds, aquamarines, peridots, garnets, etc. require a little more care and attention. In order to protect your gemstone jewellery and ensure longevity, remove your piece(s) before doing anything that could cause knocks to your jewel.

Avoid exposing your gemstones to extreme temperatures as heat can damage the stone. It is also best to avoid hot water, soaps and chemicals as coming in contact with these can cause issues such as discolouration and damage to the stone. You can clean your gemstones in an ultrasonic cleaner or with a soft toothbrush and warm water.

Pearls

Freshwater pearls require specific care that will ensure their longevity. They can be damaged by contact with chemicals found in many household cleaners, cosmetics, perfumes and hair care products. Pearls should not be submerged in water whilst showering or swimming. Clean with a soft cloth.

Opals

Opals are a soft stone (same hardness as glass) therefore exceptional care must be taken of these gems. They can be damaged by contact with chemicals found in many household cleaners, cosmetics, perfumes and hair care products. Opals should not be submerged in water whilst showering or swimming. Clean with a soft damp cloth.

Storing

When not being worn ensure you store your jewellery carefully. 

Try to separate stone pieces to avoid them being knocked or rubbing on other pieces. If possible, store each piece of jewellery in way that it is not in direct contact with other materials or jewellery to avoid scratching. Sterling silver and some 9ct golds can experience oxidisation when unworn for long periods of time and will require repolishing to return to their original colours.
