One of the beautiful things about Pride is how it celebrates individuality within community. Just like the LGBTQ+ flag represents unity in diversity, layering different jewelry pieces can create a look that's uniquely you while still being part of the bigger picture. Here are some ideas to inspire you:
- Stack the Pride Rainbow bracelet with the Gold Vermeil Chain for a perfect blend of bold and sophisticated.
- Add our Rainbow Kitten Choker for an extra pop of color and whimsy.
- Complete your look with the Princess Cut Eternity Ring for a touch of sparkle.

Caring for Your Pride Jewelry
Your Pride jewelry is special—it's a reminder of who you are and the community you're part of. Here's how to keep it looking great, so you can wear your Pride all year round:
- Store your 18k gold vermeil and sterling silver pieces separately to prevent scratches.
- Gently clean your jewelry with a soft cloth after wear, especially after high-energy Pride events.
- Keep your precious metals away from chemicals, including perfumes and hairsprays.
- For gold vermeil pieces like the Rainbow Kitten Choker and Princess Cut Eternity Ring, avoid prolonged exposure to water to maintain the gold layer.
- Remove your jewelry before exercising or getting wet to maintain its shine.
With proper care, your Bushwick Market jewelry will stay as radiant as your pride for years to come. For detailed care instructions tailored to each metal type, check out our Jewelry Care Guide.
