While some metals and stones are more resistant to water exposure, it’s generally best to avoid wearing jewelry in water. Chlorine from swimming pools, saltwater from the ocean, and even soap and shampoo can tarnish metals, damage gemstones, or weaken settings over time. It’s advisable to remove rings, bracelets, and necklaces before swimming or showering to maintain their luster and integrity. Additionally, moisture trapped in settings can lead to discoloration and potential damage, especially for porous stones like opals or pearls.for more information visit us https://www.ethicaladorn.com/pages/care-guide
