If you have a special offer coupon code, please enter it in the notes section of your order. We will apply the appropriate discount when we process your order.

JEWELRY CARE: Over time sterling silver will naturally begin to oxidize and develop a delicate silvery-gray color. If you prefer your jewelry to maintain a bright shine, please care for your piece in the following manner.
* To maintain a bright luster, wipe your jewelry lightly with a soft cloth after each use. You may use a non- abrasive silver polish cloth once a month to keep the silver bright. Store your jewelry either laying down flat or hanging straight down to avoid kinks and knots. Make it a habit to accessorize last before you go out, as repeated exposure to the chemicals in your beauty products will cause your jewelry to lose its sparkle.
* The best way to protect your sterling jewelry from oxidation is to store each piece in a sealed plastic bag when not being worn to keep out the air. It is best to keep your jewelry in an air-tight container, we know most people will not do that, but it will help slow the tarnishing of sterling silver and gold.
* Keep your jewels out of direct sunlight as the sun's rays can cause the color of stones to fade.
* Avoid swimming and bathing in your jewelry as chlorine can damage precious metals and gemstones and can cause settings to become loose.
All of our pieces are handcrafted and are made to last. With the proper care, each piece can be enjoyed for a lifetime.
