Jewellery Care

It is important to take care of your jewellery pieces to ensure you can enjoy them for a very long time. Please store your jewellery in a cool, dry place.

Remove all jewellery before showering or swimming and avoid contact with make up, sprays or perfumes because these harsh chemicals can damage the surface of certain materials.

  • Brass Care

    It is in the nature of brass and silver to tarnish over time. You can choose to embrace the patina on your piece, or if preferred, you can use a simple brass polish (I use Peek) and cloth to polish your piece back to its original shine. 

    If you wish to use an at home remedy instead of a household brass polish you can combine the juice of half a lemon with a teaspoon of baking soda and stir until it becomes a paste. Apply the paste to your brass with a soft cloth. If the tarnish is heavy, let the piece sit with the paste on it for 30 minutes. Rinse with warm water and dry. 

  • Laser Cut Care

    Our laser cut jewellery is generally made with acrylic and wood.
    If you get dirt or make up on your acrylic pieces, simply clean them with a damp cloth making sure to dry them throughly afterwards.

  • Clay Care

    Polymer clay has a slight bend to the material making it robust and long lasting.
    If you get make up or dirt on your clay pieces, clean it off with a damp cloth. For more stubborn marks you can use some nail varnish remover on a cotton bud.
    Use gentle strokes over the effected area with the cotton bud until the mark disappears then wipe with a clean damp cloth and dry with a clean towel.
