JEWELRY CARE & REPAIRS
Always put jewelry on after you apply makeup, perfume and hairspray (the chemicals in these products may affect your jewelry)
Don't wear jewelry in swimming pools, spas or the shower.
After each wearing, gently wipe each piece of jewelry (don't forget the backs of your earrings) clean of make up and skin oils with a 100% cotton cloth.
Store jewelry separately in a ziploc bag so it doesn’t scratch other jewelry or get tangled.
Avoid chlorine, detergents, perfume, cosmetics, hairspray or leaving jewelry in wet places like the bathroom.
That depends! If we have the correct materials in stock then you may purchase a single.
The cost is typically half of the retail price, plus shipping.
Since some of our pieces use gemstones, the piece may vary slightly in size, shape and color. In some cases, we'll ask you to send the mate to us, so we can better match it for you.
We do not guarantee that materials will be available, but we will try our best to make a match for you!
At this time we are not taking any custom jewelry requests.
14 karat gold filled , brass, gold plating, & sterling silver all have a tendency to oxidize when exposed to oxygen and light. To help prevent this, when not being worn, always keep your jewelry away from light, air & moisture to prevent oxidation. Using mini ziplock bags inside your jewelry box is a great way to do this!
Please note that certain oils, body lotions, tanning products, and other skincare formulas may discolour, cause oxidation or tarnish the delicate metals and natural details as well. We do not advise using any kind of jewelry cleaning solutions or cloths on gold plating, as this can change the colour of the metal.
We pre-stretch the elastic in order to avoid a bracelet from stretching out too much.
Please ROLL any stretch bracelets over your wrist to prevent stretch cord from snapping.
