Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Your guide to conscious, exquisite jewelry – with answers to the questions that truly matter.

Jewellery Basics

The most precise method is visiting a jeweler for professional sizing. You can also do it at home: measure a well-fitting ring (inner diameter in mm) or wrap a narrow strip of paper around your finger and compare the length to a ring size chart.

Recommendation: measure in the evening – that's when your finger is at its largest.

At CYO, we guide you through the entire process to ensure a perfect fit.
The choice depends on how and how often you want to wear your jewelry:

24K Gold
99.9% pure gold with a rich, intense hue. Very soft, therefore more suitable for special occasions and collector's items.

18K Gold
75% gold. The ideal balance of purity and durability. Our recommendation for fine jewelry worn daily.

14K Gold
58.5% gold. Especially robust and scratch-resistant – the best choice for active wearers and everyday jewelry.

For most, 18K is the best combination of beauty and durability — 14K is the smartest choice for everyday jewelry.
Gold is naturally water resistant. Nevertheless, we recommend avoiding frequent contact with soap, chlorine, and lotions – these can affect the metal's shine over time. Regular care will preserve the brilliance of your piece permanently.
The hallmark 925 stands for sterling silver – 92.5% pure silver, supplemented by other metals for added stability. A durable and elegant alternative to solid gold.
Clarity describes the natural inclusions within a diamond. The fewer there are, the clearer – and more valuable – the stone. At CYO, we offer different grades:

VS – GH
Exceptional clarity, minimal inclusions. For the highest demands.

SI – GH
Beautiful brilliance, small inclusions usually only visible under magnification. Balanced ratio of quality and value.

I1/I2 – IJ
Inclusions may be visible. Accessible entry into real diamond jewelry with natural beauty.

Give jewelry as a gift

The right length ensures comfort and versatility when styling:
* 40–45 cm (16–18 inches) – classic, delicate, ideal for everyday wear
* 45–50 cm (18–20 inches) – versatile, elegant, perfect for layering
* 50 cm and more (20+ inches) – expressive, for moments that stand out

Adjustable chains are always an elegant and thoughtful choice.
Minimalist designs are timeless and universal: simple pendants, initials, or clean geometric lines suit almost any style. You also receive individual recommendations through the CYO AI Atelier Designer.
Yes – and that's exactly what makes the difference. Initials, dates, or personal messages transform a beautiful piece into something you'll never forget. Talk to us – we'll find the perfect way to tell your story.
Absolutely. Timeless designs like diamond pendants, gold lockets, or personalized name necklaces are particularly popular – because they carry meaning rather than just being a trend.
For special occasions, timeless, symbolic designs are ideal:
* Diamond pendants
* Gold lockets
* Personalized name necklaces
* Birthstone jewelry

The most meaningful gifts don't come from trends, but from personal significance.
These styles are true all-rounders:
* Solitaire pendants
* Fine gold chains
* Minimalist diamond necklaces

They can be effortlessly combined from an everyday look to an evening outfit.
In 2026, it's all about timeless, meaningful pieces instead of fleeting trends:

* Personalized fine jewelry
* Diamond solitaire necklaces
* Layering-friendly fine chains
* Sculptural, minimalist designs
* Quiet luxury aesthetic

Longevity, craftsmanship, and personal meaning — those are the true trends.

Engagement Rings & Diamonds

Start with the person you're choosing it for: How does she wear jewelry? Which gold color suits her? Should the design be timeless or make a statement? A truly good engagement ring feels so natural that you forget you're wearing it – and yet you smile every time you see it.
At CYO, you don't choose from a catalog – you co-create. Together with our AI Atelier, we refine every step, from stone selection to setting, with certified diamonds and fine gold. The result is no off-the-shelf ring – it's your personal design story, set in gold.

Style & Personal Expression

Jewelry should feel like you — not a trend. Take our jewelry personalization quiz to discover your personal style.
The right combination creates harmony:

* V-neck → Necklaces with pendants
* Off-the-shoulder looks → Chokers or short statement pieces
* High-necked outfits → Long necklaces or layering looks
* Evening wear → Diamonds or elegant gold jewelry

The general rule: If your outfit is already eye-catching, keep the jewelry understated and elegant. If the look is clean and simple, the jewelry can show a little more personality.
