What forms of payment are accepted?

You are able to pay with VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, PayPal and AfterPay.

What countries do you ship to?

As we have recently launched June 2025, we are perfecting our delivery process throughout Australia. We aim to ship internationally by the end of 2025.

How long does it take for my order to arrive?

Please allow for your order to arrive within 1-3 weeks from purchase, we use AusPost for all orders throughout Australia.

What materials do you use?

We use only 9k solid gold and 925 sterling silver—never plated, never vermeil. This is because thin layers of metal wear away and lose their original finish, using only solid gold or silver is the best way to ensure your pieces last for years to come.

What is the difference between polished and oxidised?

Polished pieces have a bright, high-shine finish. Oxidised pieces are treated to create a darker finish that highlights intricate details and gives a more lived-in feel. Our polished & oxidised pieces are made using solid 925 silver.

Can I request a bespoke size?

Across our entire range, we are able to cater to most sizing requirements. Please direct all enquiries to friends@antaresjewellery.com.au

Do you offer customisations?

Yes, we can customise finishes or use metals not listed on our website for ANTARES designs. If you have something specific in mind, email us at friends@antaresjewellery.com.au and we’ll talk through your options.

How do I look after my piece of jewellery?

Your ANTARES jewellery is made to last, so feel confident wearing it as an everyday piece. Avoid harsh chemicals and take care with detailed pieces so they don’t catch on clothing and delicate fabrics.

What's the best way to clean my jewellery?

For both 925 silver and solid gold pieces, use a soft cloth and warm soapy water to clean your jewellery. Avoid any harsh chemicals such as dishwashing liquid, washing detergent, chlorine, bleach, or other household cleaners.

Tarnishing is a natural process that occurs in 925 silver. Use a silver polishing cloth to bring back the beautiful finish of your jewellery.

While solid gold doesn't tarnish, moisture can cause the gold to develop a patina over time. Regularly cleaning and polishing your pieces will restore their shine.

How do I store my jewellery?

We recommend storing your jewellery in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Use your ANTARES pouch to protect your piece from scratches and exposure to air and moisture.

How do I know my size?

You can use our ring sizers, free with any purchase, or measure a ring you already own. Just measure the internal diameter of your existing ring and check our size chart for the matching ANTARES size.

What sizes do you offer?

Rings are available in sizes 4.5 to 12. Bangles and chain necklaces come in small, medium, and large. Cuffs and chain bracelets are available in small and large. Check our sizing chart for full details.

My size is not available, can I have it custom sized?

Yes, we offer bespoke sizing for most designs. Email us at friends@antaresjewellery.com.au and we’ll organise a custom fit for you.

What happens if I order the wrong size?

If you need to change your order, please contact us within 2 hours of purchase and we’ll do our best to update it for you.
