Our stitching is used to create our signature texture and add visual excitement to our work, it is strong but not intended to hold our pieces together. We use traditional jewelry-making techniques such as soldering to secure our pieces. Every piece is made with thoughtful attention to detail and durability to wear and love for years to come. Learn more about our process HERE.

Holiday Shipping Deadlines for 2024
To ensure delivery by Christmas (December 25) and the first night of Hanukkah (December 25), here are the key cut-off dates for UPS and USPS shipping:
It’s best to plan ahead, especially for longer distances or higher volumes during peak shipping times to ensure your packages arrive on time.
When you view an item, you’ll see its estimated shipping date. For in-stock items, we ship within 1–2 business days. If an item is made-to-order, we work diligently to ship it as soon as possible, often before the estimated date. Once your order is on its way, we’ll send a notification along with a tracking number.
Need it sooner? Contact Us, and we’ll do our best to meet your timing needs.
For security reasons, we use plain outer packaging that does not reveal the contents of your package. Inside, your jewelry will be securely enclosed in an elegant box. Wherever possible, we ship your purchases in gently used recycled shipping boxes to help protect the environment.
Please contact us for special delivery arrangements if you wish to make your order a surprise. We generally ship USPS Priority Mail but can arrange UPS or expedited delivery.
Your confidence and trust are our priority. We work hard to protect your privacy and will never spam, abuse, or sell your personal information. Your contact information allows us to communicate with you about your purchase, including your order confirmation, shipping, and tracking updates.
When you’re ready to check out, simply let us know that your order is a gift in the notes section. In addition, if you’d like us to include a handwritten message to the recipient, you can also add that to the notes, and we’ll take care of it!
No worries—We can create a single earring to replace the missing one! To ensure a seamless match, send in the remaining earring so we can closely match the color and style. This sometimes includes cleaning your existing earring, so your returned pair looks beautifully refreshed.
Email first for an estimate and to discuss the details. When you’re ready, send your earring to: Suzanne Schwartz Jewelry,282 Katonah Avenue #171Katonah, NY 10536
We always want our customers to have a seamless experience. If you receive an order confirmation email and notice an error, please email info@sschwartzjewelry.com as soon as possible so we can verify the information and make the necessary changes!

Argentium Silver
We primarily use Argentium silver because it is tarnish-resistant and has a brighter white finish than white gold, sterling silver, and platinum. It’s also hypoallergenic for most people.
Sterling Silver
We use some sterling silver in small amounts for clasps and sometimes chains. Sterling silver contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals such as copper.
Oxidized Silver
We apply a patina to some of our designs to create a blackish gray color that contrasts beautifully with gold and bright silver. The effect is known as oxidized silver.
Fine Silver
We use fine silver wire for much of our stitching. Fine silver is 99.9% pure silver and has virtually no alloys.
Bi-Metal
A layer of 22k gold is bonded with sterling silver to form a sheet of precious metal with 22k gold on one side and sterling silver on the other side. The gold will not wear off or chip away.
22k Solid Gold Wire
For our designs with gold stitching, we primarily use 22k, which is 91.7% gold. Occasionally we’ll use 18k gold for stitching, but not often.
Pearls
Most of the pieces in our Pearl Collection incorporate Chinese Freshwater Baroque pearls and Tahitian pearls, which vary from light to dark gray.
We offer three different sizes of bracelets/cuffs - Small, Medium, and Large.
Use the measurements below for guidance:
Small = 6" interior circumference
Medium = 6.5" interior circumference
Large - 7" interior circumference
If you need help finding the right size, CONTACT US. We'll be happy to get specific measurements to ensure a perfect fit without being too tight or loose.
Because we primarily use tarnish-resistant materials, caring for your Suzanne Schwartz Jewelry is easy.
Oxidized or Bright Sterling Silver, Argentium, and Gold
To clean your jewelry, lightly wash with cool soapy water. Allow to air dry, or dry with a soft, non-abrasive cloth like a cotton t-shirt. Do not use a polishing cloth on your jewelry.
Non-Oxidized Metal: Use a soft toothbrush and gently wash with cool soapy water.
Oxidized Silver: Do not use any type of brush on oxidized (darkened) metal. Wash in ONLY cool soapy water (not warm or hot) using your fingers. Gently dry to avoid water spots.
Argentium Silver, Fine Silver, and Gold: These metals are highly tarnish resistant and require little maintenance. Just wear and enjoy them!
Tip: We love Dawn dishwashing liquid for cleaning all of your jewelry. It’s safe for pearls too!
Please do not sleep, shower, or swim while wearing your jewelry.
Like all jewelry, pearls can accumulate body oils or dirt over time from normal day-to-day wear.
Wash your pearl jewelry with gentle soap and water. Allow to air dry, or dry with a soft, non-abrasive cloth like a cotton t-shirt.
Tip: We love Dawn dishwashing liquid for cleaning all of your jewelry. It’s safe for pearls too!
Avoid tangling the strands: Hold the necklace in front of you before putting it on, so it lays correctly around your neck.
Storage: When not wearing your multi-strand necklace, store it with both sides fastened with the clasp to ensure the chains do not tangle.
Travel: When traveling, roll your multi-strand necklace in tissue paper and gently place it inside the pouch.
Please do not sleep, shower, or swim while wearing your jewelry.
We do not recommend that you sleep in your jewelry. However, if you find it comfortable to sleep in it, do so at your discretion.
We recommend removing your jewelry when swimming in chlorine, the ocean, or showering. Hot water and chlorine can interact with the oxidized finish.
