As they are fragile, please handle with care to avoid impact. For sterling silver, please note that oxidation is a natural characteristic of the metal. Daily wear is the best form of maintenance. After wearing, rinse with clean water and gently wipe dry with a soft cleaning cloth. Avoid exposure to body sweat, which can degrade the surface structure. After drying, it is recommended to store in a sealed bag within a jewelry box. To prolong the life of your jewelry, please avoid contact with cosmetics, perfumes, vinegar, fruit juice, bleach, and elements like lead or mercury, as these can cause erosion. When wearing, refrain from heavy labor or activities involving strong friction to prevent scratches or damage to the jewelry. / Product Features / - Ceramic accessories continue the tradition of Chinese blue and white porcelain, with a color palette primarily featuring the natural colors of porcelain clay – white and blue. The creative inspiration stems from the everyday and cherished memories, abstracting elements from them. The shapes are natural and simple, making them versatile for any outfit. - To preserve the inherent characteristics of the material, some areas of the pieces are left unglazed, retaining the tactile feel of the clay or showcasing subtle marks from the creation process, allowing the wearer to feel its warmth. Unglazed areas, due to their porous nature, are prone to staining, so please be mindful during wear. - While we often refer to them as ceramics, there is a distinction between porcelain clay and earthenware. Porcelain clay is whiter and finer in texture, allowing for thinner shaping, resulting in lighter and more delicate finished products compared to earthenware. Porcelain clay has fewer air pores and produces a clearer, crisper sound when tapped gently compared to earthenware. Each piece is handmade and therefore unique. / Product Warranty / We want your jewelry to last a lifetime, which is why all products come with a lifetime warranty.
