Can You Swim with Jewellery On? A Complete Guide

When summer arrives, so does the temptation to dive straight into the sea or pool with your jewellery still on. But is it safe to swim with your favourite pieces? The short answer: it depends on the type of jewellery you wear.

The Risks of Swimming with Jewellery

  • Chlorine Damage - Pools are full of chlorine, which can erode metals and dull gemstones.

  • Saltwater Tarnish - Saltwater accelerates tarnishing and corrosion in metals like silver and low-quality gold-plated pieces.

  • Loss Factor - Water makes your fingers shrink slightly, making rings easier to slip off and lose.

Which Jewellery Can You Swim With?

  • Solid Gold - More resistant, but chlorine can still weaken it over time.

  • Sterling Silver - Beautiful, but tarnishes fast in salty or chlorinated water.

  • Stainless Steel (like Auria Jewellery) - Durable, waterproof, tarnish-proof, and perfect for swimming.

Tips for Swimming Safely in Jewellery

  • Stick to stainless steel or waterproof-plated jewellery for pool and sea days.

  • Rinse with fresh water afterwards to wash away chlorine or salt.

  • Avoid fragile gemstones when swimming - they can get scratched.

💧 At Auria Jewellery, all our pieces are designed to withstand swimming, sweating, and showering - so you never have to take them off.
