Waterproof on a plated piece means the finish is built to survive a rinse, not that the piece is sealed. The plating sits over a brass core; fresh water does little to it, salt and chlorine sit on the surface and keep working until they are rinsed off, and it is the drying afterwards that decides how the chain looks in a month. Swim in it, then rinse it under the tap and pat it dry.

Most of this page is anklets and bracelets, which is not an accident: those are the pieces that go into the sea while a necklace stays on a towel. The initial anklets run A to Z at 9.5 inches with an extender, and the layered chain anklet sits at 8.3 inches, which is the difference between resting on the ankle bone and sitting just above it.

The $3.99 to $13.99 on this page and the prices across the CAROVO catalog were updated together, so they compare fairly.

Questions

Questions about the CAROVO waterproof jewelry

Can you swim in CAROVO waterproof jewelry?

We call these pieces waterproof, and people do wear them in the sea and the pool. Rinse them in fresh water afterwards and dry them: salt and chlorine left sitting on plating is what shortens its life, not the swim itself.

Does waterproof mean your CAROVO piece will never tarnish?

No, and we will not tell you it does. It means the finish holds up to water better than an untreated one. Every plated piece wears at the points that rub.

Which CAROVO pieces should you take on holiday?

The anklets and the chain bracelets on this page. They are the ones built for the water, they cost little enough that a lost clasp is not a disaster, and the initial anklet doubles as the souvenir.
