Care instructions

Gemstones
Gemstones should generally not come into contact with cosmetics. Please put off while showering, swimming and sleeping. Chlorine and salt water can cause the stones to lose their color. Sweat and chemicals can damage the surface of the stones. Avoid temperature shock and heat, as well as strong light. After wearing gently wipe with a damp cloth to remove salt and oil.

Cords
Cords should generally not come into contact with cosmetics. Please put off while showering, swimming and sleeping. Take off during strenuous activities. Sweat and chemicals can attack color and surface. Leather and rubber cords can shrink at higher temperatures.
Gently wipe off leather cords gently with a damp cloth and then apply leather grease or beeswax gauzy and polish with a soft cloth. This creates a thin protective film. Do not use too much grease or wax to allow the leather to breathe.
Wash rubber cords from time to time with a mild, lukewarm soapy water.

Silver 925
Clean the silver elements about once a month with lukewarm water, some mild soap and a soft cloth. Do not use chemicals. When the silver is tarnished, clean with silver polish. Please do not treat the gemstones with silver polish.

Storage instructions
Jewelry should be stored in a jewelry box or soft bag to avoid scratches and deformation. Please store in a dry and temperate place to avoid oxidation and discoloration.

 

Special safety instructions for eclipse and cryolite

Eclipse (contains orpiment) and cryolite are classified as toxic. To use these minerals as gemstones, they are stabilized, that means that they are embedded in synthetic resin. Despite this treatment, the stones should not come into contact with chemicals or cosmetics, as these could damage the protective layer. It is recommended that the stones be worn over clothing rather than directly on the skin.

Gemstones are fragile and can break easily, so avoid impacts and hittings. Wearing cords and chains can pose a strangulation risk, so remove them during physical activity (e.g. during sports, strenuous work, playing) and when sleeping. The jewelry is not suitable for small children. Do not leave children unsupervised with jewelry - there is a risk of strangulation and the risk of small parts being swallowed.
