Molly Brown London takes great care in providing children’s jewellery at it’s very best. Only the best materials ensure quality and safety in every piece you purchase for the special girl in your life.
All of the jewellery has undergone strict testing to guarantee that it meets the requirements set by CSPIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act) and ASTM F 2923-11 (Standard Specification for Consumer Product Safety for Children’s Jewellery). We have also gone through additional testing for Newton’s Break Test. This means that if enough pressure is applied, the jewellery will break and is an important safety feature as the jewellery is for children
Molly Brown London is an Assay Assured Jewellery Retailer and all of our jewellery is hallmarked at the Edinburgh Assay Office here in the UK. You will find the hallmark on the inside of baby bangles, on the post of children’s earrings and on the Molly Brown London tag which features on our necklaces and bracelets.
All Molly Brown jewellery is made with 925 sterling silver which is a popular and affordable choice for most children’s jewellery. Sterling silver is naturally hypoallergenic and suitable for those with sensitive skin types, our sterling silver is also free of Lead, Nickel, and Cadmium which makes it completely safe for children of all ages. Our baby bangles are rhodium plated, which is a precious metal in the platinum family and enhances the appearance and durability of your baby bangle whilst also making the sterling silver more resistant from tarnishing.
Our gold plated pieces are plated with a 2 microns layer of 18ct yellow gold over 925 sterling silver. Like 925 sterling silver, this material is also hypoallergenic, safe for children and features the sterling silver hallmark. Our gold vermeil jewellery is perfect for those who love the tone of gold and its luxury feel, whilst still being a more affordable option compared to solid gold. Our gold vermeil jewelry is safe for sensitive ears and free of Lead, Nickel, and Cadmium.
A beautiful accent to any piece of jewellery is a sparkling diamond or freshwater pearl and you will see many of these featured within Molly Brown London’s jewellery collections. Our most coveted children’s jewellery collections are the ‘My First Diamond’ and ‘My First Pearl’ as giving a most loved child their first pearl or diamond is a special moment to be treasured in any girl’s life. Molly Brown London uses only genuine diamonds ranging in size from 1mm-3mm and is the only children’s jewellery brand to feature this size diamond in it’s collections with many other brands only opting for Swarovski crystals, or cubic zirconias. The gemstones in the collections are genuine semi-precious or precious gemstones, which are a natural product and as each stone is unique, they may feature small inclusions and possibly colour variation.
To keep children safe we recommend that you follow these recommended safety guidelines:
– Items should only be for short periods of time and not exceed 24 hours.
– Jewellery should not be worn overnight and removed when sleeping.
– Many items of jewellery contain small parts and therefore present a choking hazard.
– We recommend children under three (3) years of age be supervised at all times while wearing jewellery.
– We recommend that your child only wears our children’s earrings after the initial healing/period has passed after piercing.
