JEWELLERY CARE

 

Thank you for purchasing or choosing to create something special with me. Your piece is handmade with lots of love and should be handled with care to improve the longevity.
Try your best not to knock your stone into hard surfaces. Remember these are natural gemstones I use and they could crack if hit just right.
Try not to swim, bathe, or shower in your jewellery. When certain gemstones are in water for prolonged amounts of time, water can get into the porous areas of the stone and possibly diminish it’s integrity and even change its colour due to oxidation from the natural metals such as copper, aluminum or iron within the stone.
Try your best to avoid excessive heat and sun exposure.
Never use any jewellery solvent-cleaners, ultrasonic-steam cleaners, oils, sunscreens, lotions as these could damage the surface and possibly discolor your stone.
Avoid wearing your jewels when cleaning as chemicals can discolor the metal, such as chlorine or ammonia, especially silver pieces because silver is more prone to tarnish than gold.
Most importantly enjoy your new handmade piece of jewellery! You are wearing something extremely special to remind you just how beautiful you are.
