What is Brazilian semi-jewelry?

Semi-jewelry (semijoia in Portuguese) is jewelry with a metal base finished with a layer of precious metal, usually gold. Brazil is known for this kind of piece and for its careful finishing. It gives you the look of fine jewelry at a much friendlier price than solid gold.

What does 925 sterling silver mean?

925 means the metal is 92.5% pure silver, mixed with a small amount of other metals for strength. It is a precious metal on its own, so it can be polished back to its shine when it darkens with time.

Where do you ship?

KJ ships orders across the United States by USPS from New Jersey. Shipping is free on orders over $200; for smaller orders the cost is shown at checkout.

How do I order?

Choose your pieces in the shop and send your order. You can also message Karine on WhatsApp at any time to ask about a piece, check sizes or order directly.

How do I keep my pieces shining?

Put your jewelry on last and take it off first: keep it away from perfume, lotion, pool and sea water, store each piece separately and wipe it with a soft dry cloth after wearing. Our care guide has the details.

Is semi-jewelry good for a gift?

Yes. It gives the look of fine jewelry at a friendlier price, which makes it easy to choose a piece she will wear often. Message Karine with the occasion and she helps you pick.

Do you speak Portuguese?

Yes. Karine is Brazilian, so you can talk to KJ in English or Portuguese.

Can I see more photos of a piece before buying?

Of course. Message Karine on WhatsApp and she sends more photos or a short video of the piece.

Is there a physical store?

No. KJ is an online shop based in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, and ships orders across the US.
