6 Best Waterproof Jewellery Brands To Wear All Summer Long
Waterproof jewellery brands are perfect for summer. Whether you’re heading to the local lido or jet setting to a beachy holiday destination – all while smothering yourself in sunscreen, of course – you want jewellery that’s going to see you through without tarnishing. Here, we round up the best brands to have on your radar, ranging from solid gold investment pieces to more affordable PVD alternatives (which basically means the long-lasting chic metal finish, without the higher price point).
Mejuri
Chances are you’re already familiar with Mejuri jewellery. And if you’re after a piece to wear now for many years to come, this is a great brand to start with. Their 14k gold designs are going to stand the test of time without being prone to oxidisation or discolouration.
Olette Jewellery
Olette uses the PVD technology we mentioned before. For the people in the back, PVD stands for Physical Vapour Deposition which is essentially process that involves applying a much thicker layer of gold which is 10 times more durable than classic gold plating. This means you get the gold jewellery effect for a fraction of the price.
By Rae
Described as ‘100% water, sweat, sea and lotion proof’, ByRae is all about making jewellery you never need to take off. What started out as a lockdown project has now grown into something much bigger, ensuring stylish jewellery is more accessible.
Monica Vinader
While Monica Vinader certainly has a wide offering of gold vermeil pieces, for a more durable option, check out their solid 14kt gold jewellery. For maximum wear, steer clear of gemstone designs, which are susceptible to build-up over time.
Hey Harper
One of this writer’s preferred brands, Hey Harper offers a combination of trend-led and timeless pieces that make hard-working additions to your jewellery box. Like ByRae, Hey Harper uses PVD technology to achieve long-lasting brightness for a fraction of the price.
Atolea
If you haven’t heard of Atolea before, then now is the perfect time to check it out. Brimming with summery, island-inspired PVD pieces with shell pearl designs that are both ‘pool and ocean-proof’ this one has your next beach trip sorted.
