jewelry care

Brass is a yellow alloy of copper and zinc, resembling gold in color. Oxidation happens over time when your jewelry is exposed to oxygen, and natural oils from your skin. This gives your piece a unique aged look, sometimes referred to as a natural patina. Some people really like the look of a natural patina. However, If you prefer to keep your jewelry more shiny here are a few tips that can help: * Avoid wearing your jewelry in the water, this includes: Bath, shower, and swim time. * Use a jewelry cleaning cloth to brighten and shine. A Sunshine cloth works nicely. * Store your jewelry in a dry place, preferably with an anti-tarnish tab. An air tight bag works well. Each piece you purchase is sent to you with an anti tarnish tab- keep it with your jewelry! *** At this time I do not accept custom orders. I do understand that brass jewelry isn't for everyone, so if you see a piece you love and would like to request it in a different metal please message me. Everything I make can be done in silver at a higher price point.
