At the79th, we carefully curate our jewelry from global markets, selecting pieces for their exceptional craftsmanship and quality. Each item is chosen to reflect our commitment to ethical and sustainable sourcing, excellence and authenticity.

At the79th, we release new collections in limited-time "drops." This means that instead of offering a permanent catalog of items, we launch exclusive, carefully curated collections at specific intervals. Each drop is unique, with limited quantities, ensuring that our pieces are fresh and exclusive.

We aim to release new drops several times throughout the year, but the exact timing varies based on the curation process and availability. Sign up for our newsletter or follow us on social media to be the first to know about upcoming releases!

Pre-orders are not typically available for our drops. However, once a drop is live, you can purchase items directly through our website. Since our pieces are limited, we encourage you to act quickly once the drop is announced!

Unfortunately, once a drop is sold out, the items from that collection won’t be available again. Be sure to keep an eye out for future releases and act fast when new drops are announced.

Solid gold jewelry requires minimal maintenance, and you can wear them daily with confidence, but to keep it shining brightly:

• Store it in a soft pouch or jewelry box to avoid scratches.
• Clean occasionally with a mild soap and water solution, and dry with a soft cloth.
• Avoid constant exposure to harsh chemicals, such as those found in cleaning products or chlorine.

Currently, the79th does not offer rings. Our focus is on crafting timeless necklaces, bracelets, and earrings from solid 18K gold. While we don’t have rings at this time, we’re always exploring new designs and collections, so stay tuned for future updates!
