Jewelry Care Guide
To keep your freshwater pearl, semi-precious Gemstone, gold-filled and Gold plated jewelry looking beautiful for years to come, please follow these care tips:
Avoid Moisture and Chemicals: Keep jewelry away from water, perfumes, lotions, and household cleaners. These can dull pearls, damage gemstones, and affect gold-filled pieces.
Last on, First Off: Put jewelry on after applying makeup and perfume, and remove it before bed to prevent unnecessary wear.
Gentle Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth after wearing, especially for pearls. For gold-filled and gemstone pieces, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush if needed, then dry completely.
Proper Storage: Store pieces separately in a soft pouch of jewelry box to prevent scratches and tangles. Pearls should be stored in a breathable environment to maintain their luster.
Wear With Care: Avoid wearing your jewelry while showering, swimming or exercising to prevent exposure to harsh elements.
Raw Copper Jewelry Disclaimer & Care Notice:
Our jewelry is handcrafted using raw, untreated copper wire. Because copper is a natural metal, it will naturally react to moisture, air, sweat, body chemistry, lotions, perfumes, and other environmental factors.
What to expect when wearing raw copper jewelry:
Possible skin discoloration: Raw copper may leave a green, blue-green or dark mark on the skin where the jewelry makes contact. This is a natural reaction between copper, moisture, and the skin. If this discoloration happens it is temporary and can usually be washed off with soap and water.
Tarnishing and color changes: Over time, raw copper may darken, develop patina, or change color. This is a natural characteristic of untreated copper and is not considered a defect!
Individual Reactions May Vary: Everyone's skin chemistry is different. Some people may experience more discoloration or tarnishing than others, depending on perspiration, skin pH, humidity, and daily activities.
Skin Sensitivity: Although copper jewelry is suitable for many people, individual skin sensitivities can occur. Discontinue wearing the jewelry if you experience itching, redness, irritation, or discomfort.
Jewelry Care: To help preserve the appearance of your piece, remove it before showering, swimming, exercising, or applying lotions and perfumes. Store in a dry place when not in use.
Important Notice: Raw copper jewelry is sold in its natural, untreated state. Skin discoloration and changes in the metals appearance are normal characteristics of raw copper and should be expected with wear. These natural changes are not manufacturing defects.
By purchasing this item, you acknowledge and understand the natural properties of raw copper and agree that these characteristics are part of the beauty and uniqueness of your handcrafted jewelry.
Thank you for supporting handmade jewelry and appreciating the natural beauty of raw copper!
