Frequently Asked Questions
We get it – choosing the right jewellery isn’t always straightforward. Whether you’re new to wearing it, picking out a gift, or just want to know what makes Origins Jewellery different, you’re in the right place. This page covers everything from how our pieces hold up in everyday life to why we back every item with a lifetime guarantee. No fluff, just honest answers to help you shop with confidence.
Is it possible to wear jewellery without overdoing it?
100%. At Origins Jewellery, we design pieces that strike the right balance – bold enough to make a statement, subtle enough for everyday wear. If you’re just starting out, go for a simple chain or one of our classic rings. We also share style guides to help you layer pieces without going full pirate.
Is men’s jewellery still seen as “feminine”?
Not these days – and definitely not with Origins. Our jewellery is built with purpose: it’s about heritage, strength, and identity. Whether you’re drawn to a bold pendant or a minimal band, it’s not about being “masculine” or “feminine” – it’s about being you. And frankly, we’ve seen our customers wear Origins with more confidence than a three-piece suit.
How do I know if jewellery suits me?
If it means something to you, it suits you. That’s our take. Origins Jewellery is designed to be versatile – our pieces work across styles, skin tones and age groups. We keep our designs timeless and our metals skin-friendly and neutral, so you don’t have to overthink it. And if you’re not sure, our community is always sharing how they wear theirs for a bit of inspo.
Will it break or tarnish easily?
Not a chance. Origins pieces are made to go the distance – waterproof, heatproof, sweatproof, and backed by a lifetime guarantee. No green fingers. No rust. No worries. Whether you're wearing it to the gym, in the sea, or just daily life, it's built to last.
Is men’s jewellery worth the price?
When it’s made like Origins – absolutely. We’re not about fast fashion or disposable trends. Our jewellery is crafted to stand up to life, not sit in a drawer. You’re investing in pieces that tell your story, look sharp, and won’t let you down after a few wears. Plus, we back it for life.
Can I wear jewellery at work?
Most workplaces are cool with simple, stylish jewellery – and Origins is designed with that in mind. Clean, understated designs that slip under a shirt or sit comfortably on your hand or wrist. It’s a great way to add a bit of personality without breaking dress code.
What if I wear something with cultural meaning by accident?
We get it – meaning matters. That’s why many Origins pieces are inspired by heritage, identity, and symbols of unity. We share the story behind our designs so you can wear them with confidence and understanding. And if you’re ever unsure, just ask – we’re always happy to chat about the meaning behind a piece.
Will people judge me for wearing jewellery?
Maybe – but they’ll probably just wish they had the bottle to wear it like you do. Origins isn’t about following trends or impressing anyone else. It’s about owning your story, your roots, your look. The confidence comes when you wear something that actually means something – and that’s what we’re here for.
About Origins Jewellery
Is your jewellery really tarnish-proof?
Yep – all Origins Jewellery is built to stay looking fresh, no matter how often you wear it. We use premium, tarnish-resistant materials so you don’t end up with dull or patchy pieces after a few months. No need for polishing kits or storing things in fancy cloth bags. Just wear it, live in it, and get on with your day.
Can I shower or swim with Origins Jewellery on?
You sure can. Our pieces are completely waterproof, heatproof and sweatproof, which means you can wear them in the shower, the gym, the pool, even the sea – no dramas. They won’t rust, flake or go green. It’s proper everyday jewellery you don’t have to babysit.
I’ve got sensitive skin – will your jewellery cause a reaction?
Not with Origins. All our pieces are hypoallergenic and made to be kind to skin – no nickel, no cheap coatings. So if you’ve had bad experiences in the past with rashes or irritation, rest easy – our jewellery is made to be worn comfortably all day, every day.
What happens if something breaks?
We back every piece with a lifetime guarantee – no ifs, no buts. If your jewellery breaks or fades in a way it shouldn’t, we’ll repair or replace it. It’s our way of saying: we believe in our quality, and we’ve got your back.
Does Origins do more than just sell jewellery?
Absolutely. Every year, we donate a portion of profits to a men’s mental health charity, chosen by our customers. We’re not just here to make you look good – we want to be part of something bigger. Our community cares about identity, wellbeing and lifting each other up – and we’re proud to support that.
Is Origins Jewellery affordable?
It is – and that’s part of the point. We want quality jewellery to be accessible, without the designer price tag or the anxiety of wearing something too precious. In fact, Origins is perfect for holidays – looks like luxury, but without the risk of losing real gold. No one wants to be that person coming home from holiday with an empty safe and no insurance payout. Our jewellery lets you travel smart and stylish.
