Which colors should you choose in the Sissi collection?
The Sissi collection carries the same spirit across about ten shades. The blues range from Pacific blue to sapphire blue, the red takes on a ruby hue, and there is also emerald green, purple, pink and a smoky quartz with brown glints. Depending on the design, the stone is a quartz or a tinted crystal, often facet-cut to catch the light. The pale shades stay discreet, ruby red and emerald green stand out more. On black or white clothing, almost every color stands out, on a print it is better to pick a shade found in the pattern.
Which Sissi ring should you choose, and in which size?
Sissi rings pair a 925 sterling silver band with a colored stone, like the tinted crystal cabochon of the Pacific Blue ring. They come in eight shades, from rose quartz to sapphire blue, and each one is offered in sizes 50, 52, 54 and 56. If you do not know your finger size, the ring size guide helps you measure it at home before ordering. It is best to measure in the morning, at room temperature, and to measure again on another day to confirm. A Sissi ring is worn alone on the ring finger or middle finger, or next to a slim silver band for a fuller look.
How do you wear a Sissi necklace?
The Sissi Pacific Blue necklace has a square pendant with slightly rounded edges, a soft shape that sits nicely at the neckline. A Sissi necklace is worn alone over a plain top, or above a longer chain for a layered look. The necklaces come in seven shades, from purple to smoky quartz. For other pendants, see our 925 sterling silver necklaces.
How do you match Sissi earrings and bracelets?
The same shade often appears on several pieces. Pacific blue comes as a ring, a necklace, a bracelet and earrings, rose quartz as a ring, a necklace and earrings, so you can put together a complete set or keep just two pieces of it. The Emerald Green earrings echo the square shape of the pendant, with a cut stone that catches the light with every turn of the head. The bracelet, more discreet, completes the look at the wrist. For other matching sets, see our jewelry sets.
How do you care for a Sissi piece?
925 sterling silver tarnishes slowly with air, humidity and contact with cosmetics. Store each piece separately, away from humidity, and put it on after your perfume or cream. Avoid dipping the stones in a silver cleaning product, a soft cloth is enough to restore their shine. Also take off your jewelry before showering or swimming in a pool, chlorinated water tarnishes silver faster. The useful steps are gathered in the silver care guide.
