Sizing and Styling

Not sure of your size? Our Ring Sizer comes with a sizing card to help you determine your correct size before you buy.

*Please note that the front stud of your original flatback was made to fit the backing length you chose. They are not interchangeable. If you need a different size you will have to order a new Flatback.

Care Instructions

Solid gold and platinum naturally withstand water, oxygen, and chemicals, however, they can get scratched over time with wear. Silver is sensitive to chemicals, and its softness may cause it to bend if worn during workouts or cleaning. To increase your jewelry’s longevity, remove before doing any hard labor or cleaning with chemicals, like bleach. To clean your jewelry, gently scrub your jewelry with mild soap and water using either a soft brush or a soft cloth. For tough messes, you can soak your jewelry overnight in a cup of soapy water. Check out our Care Guide for more information.

Warranty

Automic Gold jewelry is made with durable, sustainable materials, hand-crafted by our expert jewelers, thoroughly inspected before shipping, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty that protects against manufacturer defects.

Shipping & Returns

Ships from NYC. Processing time is 3 to 5 business days. Returns can be made within 30 days of the delivery date. Free return shipping on US orders.

Perfect Delicate Flatbacks

These are the most beautiful earrings I have seen online and in person. I have worn them nonstop since purchasing. They are very sturdy for how delicate they look and they look stunning on.
