My goal is to make you, as a customer, feel great when you make a purchase from my studio. I believe that my detailed sustainability-focused choices contribute to this. Check out what I do in this regard via this link. You’ll find, among other things, the already checked-off green checkpoints and my sustainability goals for 2025.

14 karat gold and 925 silver are an alloy. These alloys are made by mixing pure gold and pure silver with copper, when it comes to our gold and silver jewelry. This 'non-precious metal' is added to make jewelry stronger and more durable. You simply cannot make jewelry out of pure gold and pure silver alone, as they are far too soft and not scratch-resistant. The most common allergy is to nickel, which is sometimes used in alloys. Soek. Atelier does not use nickel here, so you can rest assured that there is a very low chance of experiencing an allergic reaction.

This is how you can easily mix and match your own personal ear party!

I’ll share 2 ways to measure your ring size.

You can measure your ring size using a well-fitting ring and a ruler.

Place a ring that fits you well, either one you own or one for the person you’re buying a ring for, onto the ruler.

Check how many millimeters the ruler shows at the inner edge of the ring. For example, if this measurement is 18 millimeters, your ring size is 18. So once you know the diameter, you know your size.

You can also measure your ring size using a piece of string and a ruler.

Wrap a piece of string around the finger you wish to measure.

Mark the end of the string where it meets the starting point.

Measure the marked section of the string with a ruler and note the length in millimeters.

Then you’ll know the circumference of your finger. You can use the chart below to calculate your ring size.

ring size circumference (mm) diameter (mm)

     15 | 47,2 | 15            

     16 | 50,5 | 16            

     17 | 53,5 | 17            

     18 | 56,7 | 18            

     19 | 59,5 | 19            

Tips!

If you’re deciding between two sizes, opt for the larger one.

Your finger size can be affected by temperature, so we recommend measuring at room temperature.

Soek. Atelier creates the most delicate earrings made from just 0.8mm thick silver or gold wire. Other jewelry pieces range between a wire thickness of 1mm and 1.5mm. You must treat the jewelry with respect. I advise against wearing the jewelry while sleeping, exercising, or showering to preserve both the shine of the silver and gold, as well as the shape of the jewelry.

To enjoy your jewelry for as long as possible, it's important to care for it properly. Silver and gold stay beautiful longer if they do not come into contact with chemicals. Therefore, avoid hairspray, perfume, body lotion, and dish soap while wearing your jewelry. Store your jewelry in a dark, dry place, such as a box or pouch.

Precious metals can tarnish due to dirt, chemicals, or improper storage. Annoying but fixable! Restore your jewelry to a shiny finish. You can do this using, for example, a polishing cloth, available in our webshop. 

All jewelry is handmade by me. I design, make, and sell the jewelry in-house via www.soek-atelier.nl.

No, the entire collection is only available via the webshop. However, Soek. Atelier has several physical sales points both domestically and abroad where small collections can be viewed and purchased. Look for these sales points here.
