If you don't have a soft measuring tape, you can use a piece of string or paper strip to wrap around your wrist, then measure the length with a ruler. 📏 Please provide the actual measurement of your wrist, taken snugly against the skin with no slack. When creating the bracelet, we will add approximately 0.5 to 1 cm of comfortable wearing space based on your wrist measurement. How does wrist size affect the bracelet? With different wrist sizes, the number of crystals and brass components may vary slightly, but the overall design style and arrangement will remain consistent. ⚠️ If modifications are needed due to incorrect wrist measurements: • General modifications: Round-trip shipping fees will apply. • Clasp bracelets: An additional modification fee of NT$50 will be charged. • For wrist sizes 16 cm and above: Additional charges will apply due to increased material usage. ⸻ 《Purchase Notice》 All items from this studio are handcrafted and made-to-order. Each bracelet is personally selected and crafted by us. We do not accept returns or exchanges for custom and made-to-order items, unless there are significant defects or errors in the specifications. 🔮 Natural Characteristics of Natural Crystals The crystals, minerals, and pearls we use are all natural materials. Therefore, each piece may exhibit slight imperfections such as ice cracks, cotton-like inclusions, mineral gaps, color variations, or natural patterns, and no two pieces will be exactly alike. These natural traces are precisely what lend natural minerals their unique charm. 💎 If you seek crystals that are perfectly uniform and free of any natural marks, please confirm your acceptance before placing an order. 📿 Jewelry naturally changes with use. Brass may oxidize and discolor over time, and components may fade or show wear due to sweat, friction, and the environment of use. These are normal signs of wear. ⸻ 《Can I wear it in the shower?》 Crystals themselves generally do not mind contact with clean water. However, brass and elastic cords are less suitable for prolonged exposure to moisture, sweat, and cleaning agents. Brass can oxidize and darken significantly with prolonged exposure to moisture. Elastic cords, when soaked for extended periods, may have their lifespan shortened. For clasp bracelets, as they are inconvenient to remove and put on daily, practical tests show that the brass components typically darken first with prolonged wear. If you do not mind the natural oxidation of brass over time, wearing it occasionally for showers is not strictly forbidden. However, it is still recommended to: • 🛀🏻 Avoid prolonged contact with shower gels, shampoos, and detergents. • 💦 Rinse the bracelet thoroughly after showering. • 🧻 Dry it completely with a towel or hair dryer before storing. • ♨️ Avoid prolonged immersion in hot water. To ensure your bracelet lasts longer, the ideal approach is to remove it when showering, visiting hot springs, or swimming. ⸻ 《Materials》 🔮 Crystals, Minerals, Pearls All are natural materials, each with unique natural textures and colors. ✨ Metal Components Metal components other than crystals are primarily made of brass, gold-filled, or K-gold filled materials, with the specific material varying by style. 📿 Clasp Bracelets Utilize Japanese steel wire and gold-plated soft wire, a common material for jewelry, offering good strength and abrasion resistance. 🧵 Elastic Bracelets Employ Japanese silk elastic cord and a double-strand construction to enhance the bracelet's stability and durability. The lifespan of elastic cords varies depending on wearing frequency, degree of stretching, contact with moisture, and individual usage habits. If the cord shows signs of significant pilling, loosening, or breakage, cease wearing it immediately and send it for repair to prevent crystals from scattering. ⸻ 《Crystal Cleansing and Daily Care》 After daily wear, crystals can be "cleansed/de-magnetized" according to personal habits. If you have a crystal geode or cluster at home, you can place the bracelet within it overnight. Alternatively, you can use clear quartz chips placed in a small clean dish, and then rest the bracelet on top. ✨ There is no fixed frequency for cleansing; simply follow your usage habits and avoid excessive frequency. ⸻ 《Brass Component Care》 Brass oxidizes to varying degrees due to sweat, humidity, air, and individual body chemistry, so the rate of discoloration differs for everyone. If the brass color darkens, you can: • Gently wipe with a jewelry polishing cloth or a cloth suitable for brass. • Lightly clean with a mild neutral detergent after wearing. • Ensure it is completely dry after cleaning before storing. When not wearing it, you can also rinse off sweat with clean water and dry it with a cloth. 💡 To prevent moisture from lingering between beads, use a hairdryer on the "cool" setting to dry it before storing it in a zip-lock bag. ⚠️ Ensure the bracelet is completely dry before storing. Prolonged exposure to humid environments can accelerate brass oxidation and shorten the lifespan of elastic cords. ⸻ 《Daily Cleaning Reminder》 If you tend to sweat easily, it is recommended to clean your bracelet regularly. Over time, sweat and dirt can accumulate between beads. When washing your hands with a mild neutral detergent, you can take the opportunity to gently clean your bracelet. After cleaning, remember to: Rinse thoroughly → Dry → Confirm complete dryness → Then store This will keep your crystal bracelet clean and extend the lifespan of your jewelry. ☺️ ⸻ 🤍 Final Reminder Every imperfection in natural crystals is a unique imprint left by nature; and the color changes in brass over time will gradually leave your own usage marks on each piece. If you are particularly concerned about the natural textures, mineral gaps, color variations of natural crystals, or the oxidation and discoloration of brass, please confirm and consider carefully before placing an order. Thank you for allowing "Philosopher’s Stone" to accompany you in collecting a unique crystal that belongs to you. ✨
