General Silver & Copper Jewelry Care guides

 

Sterling Silver Care

  • Silver naturally oxidizes over time. To reduce tarnish, store your jewelry in a dry, airtight pouch or box when not in use.
  • Avoid exposure to moisture, perfumes, lotions, hairspray, and cleaning chemicals.
  • Remove jewelry before swimming, bathing, exercising, or sleeping.
  • Gently polish with a soft silver polishing cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

 

General Gemstone Care

  • Natural gemstones may vary in hardness; avoid knocks, drops, or pressure.
  • Clean gently using a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth only.
  • Store pieces separately to prevent stones from scratching one another.

Important Note
Natural gemstones may display inclusions, color variations, or unique markings—these are part of their natural beauty and individuality, not flaws.

With proper care, your jewelry will age beautifully and remain a treasured piece for years to come.

Copper Electroformed Jewelry Care Guide

Each piece is handmade using the electroforming process, bonding real copper to natural gemstones and organic elements. Due to the nature of copper and natural stones, special care is required to preserve your jewelry.

Copper Care

  • Copper will naturally darken and develop a patina over time. This is a normal and expected process that adds character to the piece.
  • To slow oxidation, avoid exposure to water, humidity, perfumes, lotions, oils, and cleaning chemicals.
  • Remove jewelry before bathing, swimming, exercising, or sleeping.
  • Store in a dry, airtight container or pouch when not in use.
  • If desired, gently polish copper with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid commercial metal cleaners, which may damage the finish or gemstones.

Important Notes About Copper

  • Copper may react with skin chemistry and can leave a temporary green or dark mark on the skin or clothing. This is harmless and washes off with soap and water.
  • Body chemistry, humidity, and environment all affect how copper ages.

Storage & Wear Tips

  • Store pieces separately to prevent scratching or tangling.
  • Avoid wearing during activities that involve moisture or heavy activity. 
  • Treat electroformed jewelry as wearable art rather than everyday jewelry - just be mindful, a lot of pieces are quite large.

Natural Materials Disclaimer
Each piece is one of a kind. Variations in texture, color, patina, and stone inclusions are part of the natural beauty of handcrafted jewelry and are not considered flaws.

With mindful wear and proper care, your copper electroformed jewelry will continue to evolve beautifully over time.
