FAQs

Quality Information

Are your Classic Braided Bracelets considered Official Medical Alert items?: No, these bracelets are not meant for non-stop wear. They are considered fashion jewelry and therefore can not be an official medical alert symbol.
What is Sterling Silver?: Silver is a precious metal and, much like gold, is too fine to be utilized in a 100% pure form. To make it durable enough for use in jewelry, pure silver, which has a .999 fineness (99.9%), is often alloyed with small quantities of copper (7.5%). The copper is added to strengthen the silver and the resulting product is .925 sterling silver (92.5%). This alloy is strong enough to be used in jewelry.
What is Rhodium and Rhodium finish?: Rhodium is a metal that is a member of the platinum family. In its natural state Rhodium is found to be liquid, not solid like platinum. In its liquid state Rhodium can be applied to gold, sterling silver, base metals or other alloys to give it the shiny white surface of platinum but at a fraction of the cost. The rhodium coats the silver to enhance shine and durability. This metal top layer is usually applied using a process known as electroplating.
What are the stones made of?: Inspired Silver uses only the most brilliant cubic zirconia to maximize your sparkle.
How do I clean my Inspired Silver jewelry?: We recommend using a silver polishing cloth. We do NOT recommend cleaning the items with liquid sterling silver cleaner or silver polish. If the items are exposed to these cleaning products the rhodium finish will be damaged.
Can I wear my item while washing my hands (In the shower, etc.)?: Yes you may wear the item while coming in contact with water, but we do not suggest it. Soaps and lotions can cause build up on the stones reducing brilliance. Also, common household chemicals such as anti-bacterial soap can cause the Rhodium finish to be worn away. A good common rule to follow with jewelry is: Last thing to put on before you leave and the first thing to take off when you get home.
What do I do if I received my items damaged?: We're sorry to hear about your issue with the item that you ordered. We do our very best to provide our customers with beautiful, quality products that they'll enjoy. While we do thoroughly inspect our items before shipping, it has been found on rare occasions that, during transport in rough conditions, stones can be lost and items may be damaged. If you receive an item that is missing a stone or has been damaged in some other way, please contact our friendly customer service department immediately between the hours of 9:00-5:00 PST at 1-866-547-4583.
