Children's Jewellery - Safety Guidelines

We know how fun it is to buying jewellery for children, however, due to its size and young children's inability to vocalise pain, it's important to follow our best practices below.

• There is a real risk of children under 4 years old putting jewellery in their mouth and choking. For that reason, we do not recommend our earrings, pendants, necklaces, bracelets, rings or any other small items of jewellery for children under 4 years of age.
• If your child is over 4 years of age but still puts non-food items in their mouth, we do not recommend our jewellery. Never allow children of any age to put jewellery in their mouth.
• Baby bangles can be worn by children younger than 4 provided they are supervised at all times by an adult. Remove before nap/bed times or when children are unsupervised, no matter how short the period.
• Ensure the bangle fits comfortably without being too tight or too loose.
• Inspect skin around our baby bangle regularly for pressure damage.
• Baby bangles are designed to be be worn for brief periods, and not extended periods of time.
• Our children’s earrings are not suitable until the initial piercing has healed.
• Earrings should be cleaned frequently to help prevent infection.
• Take careful when fitting butterfly backs onto your child's earrings. Earrings that are worn too tight may become embedded in the earlobe.
• Your child’s jewellery will need to be replaced as they grow. Please do not allow your child to wear an item that is too small for them.
• Never allow your child to wear anything around their neck which could pose a strangulation risk.
