Care Instructions
Care Instructions: To keep your handmade mother of pearl shell earrings/necklaces looking their best:
• Avoid water exposure: Remove before swimming, showering, or bathing.
• Store safely: Keep in a dry, cool place—preferably in a jewelry pouch or box to avoid scratches.
• Clean gently: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear to remove oils or residue. Do not use harsh chemicals or cleaners.
• Handle with care: Mother of pearl is a natural material and may be delicate. Avoid dropping or placing under heavy objects.
With proper care, your earrings will stay beautiful and luminous for years to come.
Care Instructions: Stainless Steel Necklaces
Stainless steel is strong, tarnish-resistant, and made to last—but it still deserves a little love! To keep your necklace shining:
- Gently clean with a soft cloth after wear.
- Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, such as chlorine, bleach, and perfumes.
- Store in a dry place when not in use.
- While water won’t damage stainless steel, it’s best to dry thoroughly after exposure to moisture.
Care Instructions: Hand-Beaded Jewelry (Crystals & Stretch Cord)
Our beaded pieces are delicate and made with love—please handle them with care!
- Avoid overstretching to preserve the integrity of the cord.
- Although it may not always be possible, try to keep away from water, lotions, perfumes, and oils, which can weaken the cord and affect the crystals.
- Store flat or hanging to prevent tangles or unnecessary strain.
- For the best longevity, remove before sleeping, showering, or intense activity.
