Kids Rings
You're never too old to wear jewellery, but some may say you can be too young. We disagree! Kids rings are the perfect way to introduce young children to accessories in a safe, stylish way.
From grand statement rings to simple bracelets, little girls and boys can join in on the fun and express themselves through what they wear.
Children's rings may sound like a gimmick, but that's far from the truth! Made from materials such as sterling silver or 14K gold, these rings are a unique, beautiful gift that any young one will be excited to own.

Children's rings also hold a lot of sentimental, cultural, and religious value. Being given one at a young age to commemorate a special occasion is a big milestone.
If you are hesitant to give your exuberant kid an expensive ring, there are fantastic alternatives made from affordable materials that don't look cheap.
Safety concerns such as swallowing or getting the ring caught on things are also a big factor when you choose the right ring, so do as much research as you can to get the right ring for your youngster.

The 'coming of age' period marks the transition from childhood into adulthood during the teenage years, from about 16 to 21, and it isn't exclusive to girls.
Signet rings are given at this age to celebrate the connections within their family, a special life event, or as a form of identification through engraved dates or initials like our Initial Letter Dot Ring.
Signet rings, made from precious metals, make an elegant statement, informing others who you are and where you're from. They come in various styles, from large gemstones to simple bands.
Getting a signet ring is incredibly special for young children because the ring will stay with them their whole life.
The most popular materials are base metals such as brass and copper. These make costume rings or 'fashion jewellery' much more affordable compared to fine jewellery brands that use precious metals.
Base metals can be plated to mimic the appearance of gold or sterling silver. To represent gemstones, manufacturers will usually use glass, plastic, or resin.
Costume rings are perfect for young boys and girls who want to wear a ring without too much responsibility. If it is lost or broken, replacing it will cost less than fine children's rings.
What's more, costume jewellery is affordable and flexible, making it easier to create personalised pieces. Butterflies, flowers, cute love hearts, and crosses are all popular choices. Whatever your little one dreams up, a jeweller can make it happen.
In Australia, the smallest is A, with an internal circumference of around 37.5mm and a diameter of 12mm. Depending on the individual, this can fit an infant under 5 years old.
If you're getting a signet ring, the typical measurement ranges from K - to N, taking into account the teenage age at which kids wear them.
When buying a ring for very young children, remember they grow quickly! If the ring becomes too tight, it can cut off their circulation and be very uncomfortable. Please seek professional advice before giving a baby or toddler a ring.
Size C or D is a good match for this age. However, every 10-year-old is different in terms of the finger size, so measure carefully and get the piece personalised if needed.
Boys and girls at this age will generally wear the same size, but other factors to think about include if your young one prefers a looser or tighter fit.
Some kids like to know their beloved new jewellery piece isn't going to slip off their finger, whereas others like to be able to easily remove it when they want.
Bring them along with you to the jeweller, and they will choose the best option for your 10-year-old.
To make it extra special, why not match your little one with a ring or a pair of hoop earrings?
Wrap a special measuring tape for rings around the base of their finger. Pay attention to the millimetres and match it to an Australian size chart you can easily find online.
To make rings last longer, we advise you to size up a bit so that they grow with your child.
While rings made from precious metals can be resized, costume jewellery is prone to breaking during this process as plated metals are not durable enough.
Children's rings with adjustable designs are great because they prevent the need to keep resizing or throw out the piece after it gets too tight.
Definitely the economical option when it comes to kids - lots of people will swear by adjustable (or 'open') rings.
They shrink and expand along with the finger with a simple squeeze to adjust the fit. When you don't know the ring size of a child, these rings are the perfect gift.
However, there are some drawbacks to consider. First, adjustable rings can lose their integrity after a while, especially if they are made of base metals. Additionally, they limit the rings you can choose from when exclusively looking for an adjustable option.
Overall, adjustable rings are worth it for a lot of people who want to save money and deal with the trouble that comes with sizing and resizing children's rings.
