CARING FOR YOUR PIECE

I aim to create high-quality pieces that will last for generations. Proper care will ensure the longevity of your pieces.

Be kind to your jewelry. Avoid banging or dropping it. Remove jewelry when using chemicals, doing heavy exercise or dirty work. Avoid commercial jewelry cleaning products as they will be too harsh, especially on stones.

Many of my pieces feature oxidized silver. This is a natural and changeable process. The oxidation may fade or change over time, depending on your body chemistry, causing shinier silver to show through.

If necessary, use a soft toothbrush with warm, soapy water to clean your metal pieces. Avoid soap if your piece has opals.

Store your jewelry in a dry place.
Storing in the bathroom will expose the metal to quicker, uneven oxidation and may damage some stones.
