What Is Waterproof Jewellery? | Jenima Jewels
What Is Waterproof Jewellery?
Direct answer:
Waterproof jewellery is jewellery designed to keep its colour, shine, and structure even after regular contact with water — showering, swimming, sweating, or washing hands — without tarnishing, fading, or turning your skin green.
How It's Made Waterproof
- A base metal (like stainless steel or brass) that resists corrosion
- A thick, sealed plating layer (often 18K gold or rhodium) that blocks moisture and oxygen from reaching the metal underneath
- No porous stones or glued components that water can seep into
Can You Shower and Swim In It?
Yes — that's the whole point. Genuine waterproof jewellery from Jenima Jewels is tested for daily showering, swimming, and sweat exposure without discoloration.
Is Waterproof Jewellery the Same as Water-Resistant?
No. See our guide on Waterproof vs Water-Resistant Jewellery — it matters more than most brands admit.
