Little Heart Earrings / Studs / Màn Gōng (Handcrafted)

Product Description | You once lived within crystal-clear ice, a barrier between yourself and the world, isolating both inside and out. Though emotions—joy and sorrow—could be seen, no warm comfort could be offered. Your heart felt distant from everyone, a defense mechanism when vulnerability was too great. How others treated you mattered little, as long as your heart remained untouched. Within that small space, you healed yourself with your own strength. Finally, one day, you summoned the courage to open a small door, occasionally venturing out to explore the world. Even when feelings of hurt and unfairness might quietly creep from the shadows, reason and kindness always prevailed. Dear one, thank you for still choosing to greet the world with warmth and kindness. I know how much you've overcome and how challenging it has been to reach this point. I also know how much effort it takes to maintain your current charm. Product Care | *Sterling silver jewelry without plating, due to its natural properties, may darken to varying degrees depending on personal wear habits, environment, and individual body chemistry. This is a normal phenomenon. In addition to daily rinsing with clean water and drying before storing in a resealable bag to minimize air exposure, you can also restore shine by gently polishing with a silver polishing cloth. Alternatively, soak the silver jewelry in hot water with salt and aluminum foil for a few seconds, then rinse with clean water and dry. All items sold by the studio include complimentary professional maintenance and cleaning services. Feel free to mail your items back to the studio with return postage to enjoy this benefit. *Sulfur-rich hot springs contain substances that accelerate silver's discoloration. It is recommended to seal jewelry in a resealable bag when visiting such areas. *Each handmade item may have slight variations. If you have any questions or curiosities about the jewelry or the crafting process, please feel free to contact the designer for clarification before placing your order. *Gemstones are the product of hundreds, even thousands, of years of Earth's creation, making natural gemstones rare and precious. Just as each person's character is influenced by their environment, some gemstones may bear natural marks such as minor inclusions or internal lines from their formation. These are characteristic of natural gemstones. We encourage you to inquire and discuss further with the designer before purchasing. *For orders over a certain amount, the packaging will include a gift box, a shopping bag, and a silver polishing cloth.
