The original waterproof jewellery brand
Long before “waterproof jewellery” became an Instagram trend, the team behind Kate Smith Jewellery was creating timeless, solid gold and silver pieces designed for real life.
Rooted in traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design, our collections are made in small batches and finished by hand in Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter, world-famous for centuries of jewellery expertise.
If you're at the stage in life where you're done with fast fashion and ready to invest in lifelong quality without compromising on contemporary style, this is your go-to collection.
What is waterproof jewellery?
Advances in PVD plating technology mean lower-quality jewellery can now be marketed as waterproof, but solid precious metals always have been and always will be inherently waterproof.
And unlike plate pieces, that can fade or peel over time, choosing our solid gold and silver waterproof styles are crafted from solid gold and silver means:
No thin plating to rub away
No base metals hidden underneath
No sudden colour changes after a shower or holiday
Just beautiful, durable jewellery that maintains its integrity, whatever your day holds.
Tarnish free rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and sets
From delicate rings to statement earrings, everyday chains to meaningful bracelets, our tarnish free collection includes:
Waterproof rings that won't discolour
Earrings you can sleep and shower in
Layering necklaces that hold their shine
Bracelets designed for daily wear
Coordinated jewellery sets for easy modern styling.
Each piece is thoughtfully designed to sit comfortably, feel luxurious, and move with you.
Solid gold & silver pieces for everyday elegance
No plated stainless steel in sight. We specialise in solid gold and high-quality contemporary jewellery, handcrafted by experts in Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter.
Solid gold doesn’t just look better, it also lasts longer, feels weightier, and carries real intrinsic value. It’s jewellery you invest in once and wear for decades.
The perfect gift for special occasions and milestones
Looking for a meaningful gift that will be worn and enjoyed every day?
Waterproof, tarnish free jewellery makes a thoughtful choice for milestone birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, retirements, and “just because” moments.
Solid gold and silver carry significance, and because our jewellery is made to be worn rather than stored, it becomes part of your loved one's story and style. A beautiful daily reminder of your affection and appreciation.
A note about silver jewellery
Although our solid silver pieces are waterproof, we recommend removing them before swimming in chlorinated pools, as chlorine can cause heavy tarnishing to silver over time.
Cherish with care
A gentle reminder that all jewellery should be treated with love and care, even if it’s crafted from solid precious metals. After all, waterproof doesn’t mean indestructible.
For example, activities like weightlifting, potholing, and heavy manual work can misshape rings, whatever they’re made from, so look after your jewellery and it will be with you for a lifetime.
