Can I change or cancel my order?
Contact us immediately at info@sowelljewelry.com. We will do our best to help, but we cannot guarantee changes or cancellations after an order has entered processing or shipped.
Can I use a discount code?

Discounts cannot be applied to previous purchases, redeemed for cash, or used to purchase gift cards. Certain products, collections, sale items, limited-edition pieces, and final-sale items may be excluded.
If part of a discounted order is returned, the refund will reflect the amount actually paid for the returned item after the discount was applied. Promotional terms and expiration dates may vary and will be stated with each offer.
Will I be charged sales tax?
Applicable sales tax is calculated at checkout according to the shipping destination and current tax requirements.

Products & Materials
Is your turquoise genuine?
Yes. We work with trusted suppliers to source genuine Arizona turquoise. Most of our turquoise is stabilized for durability, a common treatment that strengthens the stone while preserving its natural appearance.
We do not represent dyed howlite, synthetic materials or imitation stones as genuine turquoise.
Why does my stone look different from the photograph?
Turquoise and other natural stones vary in color, matrix, pattern and shape. These natural differences make every piece distinctive and are not considered defects.
We make reasonable efforts to represent colors accurately, but lighting and screen settings may affect how a stone appears.
What metals do you use?
Our collections include solid 925 sterling silver, gold vermeil and select gold-plated designs. Some pieces may include stainless-steel chains or components.
The materials used in each item are identified on its product page.
Will sterling silver tarnish?
Sterling silver may naturally oxidize or darken over time. This is normal and does not indicate poor quality. Its shine can usually be restored with a suitable silver-polishing cloth.
Avoid using polishing cloths or chemical silver cleaners on plated surfaces or directly on delicate stones.
How should I care for my jewelry?
Avoid contact with pools, household chemicals, perfume, hairspray and lotions. Remove jewelry before bathing, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
Store each piece separately in a dry pouch or jewelry box. Because turquoise and other delicate stones can be damaged by harsh cleaners, steam and ultrasonic machines, follow the instructions on our Jewelry Care page.
Sizing & Availability
What sizes do your adjustable rings fit?
Most adjustable Sowell rings fit approximately US sizes 6–8 unless otherwise noted on the product page.
Adjust the lower part of the band gently and avoid pressing directly on the stone or setting.
What size wrists do your cuff bracelets fit?
Most adjustable cuffs fit wrists approximately 6–8 inches in circumference unless otherwise noted.
Avoid repeatedly opening and closing a cuff because excessive bending can weaken the metal. Please visit our Jewelry Size Guide for measuring instructions.
Do you offer custom or personalized jewelry?
We do not currently offer customization or personalization.
Will sold-out pieces be restocked?
Some designs are restocked, while limited-edition, antique and discontinued pieces may not return.
