Your sizes and jewelry care
Chain lengths
Not sure which length to choose?
Here you can see how the different chain lengths sit.
Kobra’s standard is 42cm, but if you want to stack your necklaces, an ideal composition would consist of a 38cm, a 42cm and a 45cm.
Ringsized
Not sure which length to choose?
There are many ways to measure ring sizes. The easiest would be to take a measuring tape or string and measure the circumference of your finger or a ring you already have. The length in mm. will here correspond to your ring size, i.e.: The circumference of your finger is 54mm = Ring size 54.
Just be careful if you measure your finger because the size can vary depending on whether your fingers are very hot or very cold.
If you already have a ring that fits, you can measure the inside diameter and see on the table linked below which size this corresponds to.
Care of jewelry
5 rules to remember
Good jewelery can last for many years if you take good care of it and take care of it. Here are therefore some tips on how to do just that.
1. Store them safely
When you are not wearing your jewelry, you should store it in a closed jewelry box to protect it from the elements.
2. Don’t shower with your jewelry
Do you take your jewelery off when you take a shower or wash dishes or similar. So their coating and shine last much longer.
3. Don’t exercise with your jewelry
Both tremors, bumps and not least sweat wear a lot on jewellery, so it is a good idea to leave them in the jewelery box when you exercise.
4. Take them off when you go to bed
Jewelery does not like heat, so take it off and store it in an airtight container when you go to bed.
5. Avoid chemicals
Chemicals wear down the metal, so be careful where you spray perfume or use creams and make-up.
