Jewellery Care and Information

Resin is the best material for preserving beautiful flowers and turning them into stunning pieces of jewellery. 

When caring for sterling silver it is important to wipe it over with a cloth now and again. Due to the properties within the metal the silver can start to turn a little black, this can be wiped away and the jewellery will be looking good as new!  I would recommend taking the jewellery off when showering, bathing and sleeping. Try to keep your jewellery away from harsh chemical exposure, such as perfumes or cleaning products.​

Gold filled, also sometimes known as rolled gold, is a great alternative to solid gold. It has the look of solid gold for a fraction of the price, however, will last much longer than gold plated items. This is due to the fact that gold filled items have a much thicker layer of gold which does not flake or peel as easily. Gold filled items must contain, by law, 5% or 1/20 of gold by weight. The gold used is generally 12K or 14K. If you are someone who wears jewellery on a daily basis, I would recommend this option.

​To keep gold filled jewellery lasting as long as possible please avoid direct contact with chemicals such as perfumes, hair sprays, or cleaning products. Avoid wearing in the bath or shower and store out of direct sun light.

 

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel jewellery is made from a durable metal alloy primarily composed of iron, carbon, and chromium. The chromium content is what makes stainless steel resistant to tarnishing, rust, and corrosion, giving it a sleek, shiny appearance that can last a long time. 

To clean we recommend wiping your stainless steel jewellery with a soft cloth after wearing it to remove oils, dirt, and sweat. For a deeper clean, mix warm water with a few drops of mild soap, and use a soft brush to gently scrub the piece. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth.

 

Plated Metals

To care for them properly, they should be kept away from water, such as showers and baths, as well as any harsh chemicals like perfume or cleaning products.

Plated metal may tarnish over time due to general wear, however for a small charge I am happy to send you a new chain if this happens.

​Plated metals are a great cheaper alternative to sterling silver or gold filled items. They are made from a thin layer of gold or silver, with a base metal underneath, commonly, copper, brass, or nickel.
