This design was inspired by the concepts of "ripples from the heart" and "electrodes." The energy within us can be depleted due to environmental conditions and interpersonal relationships. However, through rest or self-understanding, we can return to a state of full energy, much like a rechargeable battery that can be depleted but also fully charged. **Please ensure the "style" meets your needs. If you make an incorrect judgment, you will be responsible for the round-trip shipping costs.** **Important Information for First-Time Silver Jewelry Wearers** ◮ Avoid wearing silver jewelry while visiting hot springs or swimming. The salt in seawater and the acidity of rainwater can slightly corrode metals and cause oxidation. Sulfur in hot springs will tarnish and cause vulcanization of the jewelry. If exposed to such substances, rinse the silver jewelry with clean water and dry it thoroughly. ◮ Human sweat has a slightly acidic pH of 4, intended for skin sterilization. Prolonged contact can corrode metals and accelerate alloy oxidation. Our jewelry is not plated with other materials, making it more susceptible to corrosion and breakage when in contact with sweat. **However, not everyone's sweat will cause breakage; if you have had similar experiences, please be extra cautious.** To maintain the brilliance of your silver jewelry, it is recommended to wash and dry it after wearing it for the day if it comes into contact with sweat. ◮ Products containing chemical additives can also cause silver jewelry to corrode. Any product with chemical additives can accelerate the oxidation of jewelry. Common examples include: skincare products, sunscreen, cosmetics, perfumes, essential oils, cleaning agents, chlorine in swimming pools, etc. If you habitually wear perfume, it is recommended to apply perfume before putting on jewelry to avoid direct contact. ◮ Develop good habits for use and storage. Taiwan's climate is humid, with relatively high air moisture. When not wearing the jewelry, be sure to wipe off any sweat or oils with a dry cloth. Store it in a ziplock bag to keep it dry and airtight. Store each piece separately to prevent friction and scratches. ◮ About Silver Sulfidation 925 sterling silver is prone to tarnishing (turning yellow or black) when exposed to air; this is a natural reaction of silver, similar to how silver reacts with hot spring water. Gently polishing with a silver polishing cloth will restore its original luster. However, in hard-to-reach areas like the crevices of a silver chain, the silver may appear slightly darker. Sulfidation is a technique where 925 sterling silver jewelry is intentionally oxidized to create a rustic, antique, dark appearance, enhancing contrast and adding depth. This is more uniform and aesthetically pleasing than natural air oxidation, and the crevices do not require extra cleaning. Regular wear, where the silver surface rubs against clothing, helps maintain its shine. ◮ About Us To achieve the highest quality, each of our pieces is meticulously crafted through repeated inspection, refinement, and polishing, with absolutely no tolerance for porosity or flaws. To ensure structural integrity, we employ repeated forging techniques, giving our silver jewelry a unique luster and texture. Plated protective films have a high probability of peeling off with prolonged wear, which can affect both the environment and the human body, while also obscuring the natural luster of the silver. Therefore, our pieces are never plated. We invest significantly more time in the details. If you have the opportunity to purchase one of our pieces, you will notice that its oxidation rate is considerably slower, and its luster is different compared to most other silver products. We hope you find a unique piece of jewelry that belongs to you here.
