Collections FAQs

What's the secret to selecting the perfect earrings for myself?

The key lies in considering your face shape, personal style, the occasion and your comfort level. Stud earrings, for instance, are universally flattering, while longer designs can create the illusion of a longer neck. 

Can you outline the earring styles Onatah offers?

Absolutely! We offer a diverse range from studs, hoops, dangles and chandeliers to threaders, huggies and even ear cuffs. Each design brings its own charm, catering to various occasions and fashion statements.

I have sensitive ears. Do you have earrings suitable for me?

Certainly! We prioritise comfort and offer earrings made from hypoallergenic materials such as sterling silver and stainless steel. It's always best to steer clear of nickel to avoid any allergic reactions.

How can I ensure my earrings stay pristine?

Regularly wipe them with a soft cloth to eliminate any dirt or oils. It's wise to keep them away from chemicals, lotions and perfumes. For storage, a jewellery box or pouch will protect them from tangling and potential scratches.

I don't have pierced ears. Can I still wear Onatah earrings?

No, all of our earring collections are for pierced ears. But we do offer them in varying styles, such as studs, shepherd hook and drop earrings. 

Is it safe to sleep while wearing my earrings?

We recommend removing earrings before sleep to prevent any discomfort or potential damage. However, if they're snug and not oversized, occasional nights with them on should be fine.

How do I coordinate earrings with my attire?

Balance is key. If your attire is vibrant or patterned, go for understated earrings. On the other hand, with a neutral ensemble, feel free to choose statement pieces.

What earring size is apt for various events?

Formal settings often call for subtlety, making studs or small hoops ideal. For casual or celebratory events, you can opt for larger or more intricate designs.

Can I wear my earrings in the shower or pool?

We advise against it. Showering or swimming, especially in chlorinated pools, can tarnish your earrings. There's also a heightened risk of them getting snagged or misplaced.

What's the best way to clean my earrings?

A mix of mild soap and warm water works wonders for most earrings. For intricate designs, a soft toothbrush can help in gently removing dirt. However, avoid immersing earrings with porous gemstones or organic materials in water.

What are stacker rings?

Stacker rings are designed to be worn together on the same finger. These rings come in diverse styles, materials and designs. They're perfect for mixing and matching according to one's personal style, mood or occasion.

These rings can be worn in numerous ways. Some people prefer a cohesive look by sticking to one metal type or colour scheme, while others enjoy the contrast of mixing metals and gemstones.

How should I care for stacker rings?

Follow these tips to ensure your jewellery remains pristine and dazzling for years to come:

Moisture can affect plating so take off your stacker rings before showering or swimming in chlorinated or sea water. Likewise, refrain from spraying perfume and applying creams directly on your rings.

Remove your jewellery before intense workouts or physical activities to prevent potential wear from sweat and friction.

Keep sterling silver and gold-plated pieces clean and shiny by gently wiping them with a polishing cloth or using a special jewellery cleaning solution.

Keep in mind that gold plating may eventually wear away or sustain scratches, exposing the underlying base metal. As such, plated pieces may require re-plating every few years to restore their original shine and appearance.

Prevent fading and tarnishing by storing your stacker rings in a dry and cool place away from direct sunlight.

Where can I purchase stacker rings?

You can find affordable, premium-quality stacker rings here at Onatah. We’ve carefully curated a wide range of styles to ensure there’s something for everyone.

Can stacker rings be resized?

Many of our rings are designed to be resizable, although this depends on the specific style of the ring and how the gemstones are set.

Ring sizing can be tricky, so we've included the available sizes on each product page. To ensure the perfect fit, we strongly suggest visiting a local jeweller to get sized in person.

What if I receive a defective or incorrect item?

If you decide that your new jewellery isn’t right for you, don’t worry. You have up to 30 days to request a refund or exchange.

What is snake jewellery?

To maintain the beauty of your jewellery and prevent moisture from tarnishing the plating, do not wear it while showering or swimming. Avoid applying perfumes and creams to the pieces to prevent potential damage.

Clean sterling silver and gold-plated items with a polishing cloth and a specialised jewellery cleaning solution. Always ensure your jewellery is stored in a secure, cool and dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.

Following these care instructions will help keep your pieces lustrous for years to come.

Can I wear moonstone jewellery every day?

Absolutely! Our collection is crafted from 925 sterling silver, meaning you can wear your moonstone jewellery from day to dark without hassle. However, to prolong its lifespan, we recommend removing your piece before swimming in chlorinated water or enjoying a long shower — overexposure to water can cause silver to oxidise more quickly.

How do I care for my moonstone jewellery?

Here's how we recommend you care for your moonstone accessories to preserve its beauty and quality for years to come:

Only use professional-grade jewellery cleaners

Refrain from dousing your moonstone necklaces or earrings in DIY jewellery cleaners like vinegar and baking soda concoctions. Likewise, don't cleanse your sterling silver moonstone pieces with bleach or toothpaste.

Store your jewellery in separate pouches to avoid scratches 

When not in use, store your moonstone necklaces and earrings in an enclosed jewellery box or pouch, so your accessories won't accumulate dust or rub against other pieces in your collection.

What payment methods do you accept?

Onatah offers multiple convenient payment methods. No matter how many pieces you purchase in our store, you can pay for your moonstone jewellery using Paypal, credit cards or Afterpay — so you can split your payments over four equal instalments due every fortnight.

Do you ship internationally?

No, Onatah only ships within Australia. But we're constantly exploring ways to expand our business and cater to our customer's diverse needs. Stay informed for updates on future shipping expansions by subscribing to our newsletter.

What is your return policy?

If you wish to return your unused moonstone jewellery, you are welcome to do so within 30 days for a refund or exchange. To qualify for a return, please ensure the items are in the same condition as when you received them and retain their original packaging. Contact our team with a receipt or proof of purchase and we will evaluate the eligibility of your items for return.
