Caring for your piece

Sterling silver. Silver darkens with air over time. Store it in its box or a small zip bag when you're not wearing it. A soft polishing cloth brings the shine back. Skip silver dips; they can dull the stone.

​

Copper. Copper darkens to a deeper brown as you wear it, and some people like that. A polishing cloth brightens it. Copper can leave a faint green mark on skin. It washes off with soap and water and does no harm.

​

The stone. Each stone is cut and polished by hand. Take your piece off before swimming, showering, cleaning or putting on lotion. Wipe the stone with a soft damp cloth and dry it. No ultrasonic or harsh cleaners. Stone can chip, so keep it away from hard knocks.
