JEWELRY CARE
All of our jewelry is handmade in ITALY in untreated 925 silver, 9 or 18 Karat gold, Bronze.
Silver can react chemically in contact with sea water, thermal and sulphurous water or water with a strong presence of chlorine (swimming pool).
In some cases the acid pH of the skin or an excessively damp environment can cause chemical reactions that lead the jewel to blacken.
Burnished silver can fade over time with daily wear. We are happy to re-burnished your piece for the cost of shipping. The best way to clean your jewelry is with clear, unscented dish soap and a toothbrush.
The Bronze fears humidity and reacts differently depending on the degree of acidity of the wearer’s skin; it can darken and leave a greenish halo on the skin. This is absolutely normal and is not harmful to the wearer. A thin veil of transparent enamel inside rings and bracelets can solve the problem of greenery.
