Jewelry Care

Our jewelry is made primarily from lead-free tin, with most pieces containing 98% tin and the remaining percentage made up of copper or silver. Some designs are crafted without any copper, using only tin and silver pewter. We always use lead-free alloys. Stainless steel is consistently used for chains, clasps, and connectors, though we are now also starting to incorporate silver for these parts.

Because tin and silver naturally tarnish over time, we apply a thin layer of a special protective jewelry varnish to each piece before shipping, helping to slow down this natural process.
Every piece is carefully designed and ready to wear, but proper care is still essential.
Below, we provide some tips that we consider important:

Care Tips

• Clean your jewelry with warm water and a bit of mild soap. **For jewelry made with original paintings, it is important to note that they should not get wet in order to preserve the artwork. We recommend cleaning them with a small cotton swab instead.**

• Occasionally give your jewelry a gentle polish using a microfiber cloth or a dedicated tin cleaner.

• Avoid applying perfume, body lotion, or other chemicals directly on the piece, especially hand sanitizer with rings, as these substances can dull the shine or weaken the structure.

• Remove your jewelry when bathing, showering, or sleeping.

• Do not pull on it harshly and avoid collisions or scratches. Any aggressive impact may irrevocably damage the piece.

• Avoid exposing your jewelry to high temperatures, as extreme heat can damage the materials and affect the overall appearance.

• Do not wear jewelry during strenuous activities, such as exercise.

• Be cautious, as some pieces may have sharp spikes. These are always polished, but they can still cause harm.

• Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place, preferably in a pouch or box lined with anti-tarnish fabric to minimize exposure to air and moisture.

By following these tips, you'll be able to keep your jewelry radiant for a long time.
