Waterproof, how?

Our pieces are 100% waterproof
Our waterproof pieces are designed for your daily routine. Shower, workout, even ocean swims – they can handle it all without fading or turning your skin green. We stand by this, that’s why we offer lifetime color warranty. If your jewellery ever loses colour, kindly contact our customer support with a visible picture of your item. We've got you covered!
How?
All of our jewellery is made from the highest quality stainless steel and we use a cutting-edge process called PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition), which is 10 times stronger than traditional coatings and more envrionmentally friendly!
This material doesn't tarnish or fade, and it's even more durable than silver, gold, or platinum
We're not just saying our jewellery is water-resistant for marketing purposes – we mean it! Our products have been tested and loved by hundreds of satisfied customers.

FAQs
Is your jewelry waterproof and tarnish-proof?
Yes! Our pieces are 100% waterproof, sweat-proof, and tarnish-resistant, so you never have to take them off. Shower, swim, sweat, salt water—they stay flawless. No fading, no green skin, no weird discoloration.
P.S. Our customers say they’ve worn their pieces daily (even in the ocean!), and they still look brand new.
Will this jewelry turn my skin green or cause irritation?
Nope, never. We don’t do cheap, low-quality metals. All our pieces are nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so they’re safe for sensitive skin and won’t turn green, even with everyday wear.
What length is it? Can I adjust it?
Adjustable from 40-45cm so you can wear it short or longer, depending on your vibe
What ring sizes do you offer? Do they run true to size?
Our rings come in standard US sizes, and they’re true to size! If you’re unsure, we recommend using our ring size chart (or checking a ring you already own).
What materials are used in your jewelry?
We use high-quality 14K gold plating over stainless steel with natural gemstones, aka the best combo for durable, long-lasting jewelry that won’t rust or fade.
What nautral stones do you use in your Jewelry?
We use a curated selection of natural stones, each chosen for its unique beauty and meaning.
Unlike synthetic or glass stones, natural gemstones have depth, variation, and energy that make every piece one of a kind.

Do you dropship from China?
No, we don’t. All our jewelry is handcrafted, designed in-house, and shipped from our UK and US warehouses.
Unlike cheap dropshipped jewelry, which often contains low-quality alloys, mystery metals, and even lead, sometimes exceeding legal safety limits.
Our pieces are made with high-quality 14K gold plating over stainless steel , and safe for sensitive skin as it's not worth risking your health for jewelry that won’t last.
What's your lifetime warranty?
Your Jewellery is made to last. To be worn everyday of the week without being taken off. That's why we selected the best materials and have given you Lifetime Warranty.
Can I return my Cadena Jewellery?
Yes of course. We want you to be completely happy with your new jewellery. However, if for any reason you are not completely satisfied with any items you may return them to us within 60 days of receiving your order. Including earrings if unworn.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes we ship internationally with free worldwide shipping! We want everyone to be able to enjoy our jewellery :)
Are your earrings lightweight?
Yes all of our earrings are lightweight whilst still being super durable. This means they're comfortable to wear, even for extended periods.
How does your jewelry compare to fine jewelry or other brands?
We get this a lot, and honestly? Our pieces look and feel just as expensive as designer jewelry but without the ridiculous markup.
Other brands might use cheaper plating that fades in weeks, but we’ve tested and perfected our pieces to make sure they actually hold up. That’s why our customers wear them every single day and keep coming back for more.
Do your pieces contain nickel?
No all of our jewellery are Hypoallergenic and completely nickel free.
I have very highly acidic skin, will it tarnish?
No it will still not show any signs of tarnishing as we only use hypoallergenic metals which are less reactive to skin chemistry.
