WHITE DAYS Sterling Silver Square Incised Ring

▎When objects are lost, subjects are found. The name of the 〈WHITE DAYS〉 collection is inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's film notes for "Mirror." This collection uses gemstone facets and their negative forms to depict the subtle connection between absence and existence. The incised facets resemble a void left by something lost, yet as light and shadow shift, they create an optical illusion of gemstones, flickering like fragmented memories that subtly resonate. This ring is available in both square and round designs. For a mosaic-like shimmering effect, the surface treatment is a high-gloss polish. Sterling silver may slightly yellow over time, lending the ring a unique personal patina. Alternatively, an oxidation layer can be easily removed with a silver polishing cloth, restoring the pure silver's original luster.

This is a natural process that can sometimes add a unique texture to the piece, evoking a sense of imperfect and transient time. Some people, however, prefer the original shine of silver. Plating is not a permanent treatment; the plating layer will wear off over time depending on usage. However, cleaning silver jewelry at home is not difficult. The simplest and most effective method is to use a silver polishing cloth, which contains chemicals that quickly remove oxidation, and its non-woven fabric can wipe away other dirt. For dirt in details or grooves, you can use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) with warm water and a non-abrasive, neutral detergent (do not use toothpaste). Rinse thoroughly with water and dry completely. Note: Household chemicals, sweat, rubber, chlorinated water, and any substances containing sulfur (such as mayonnaise, eggs, mustard, onions, latex, wool, etc.) can accelerate silver's oxidation or cause minor corrosion on other metals. Lotions, hairsprays, cosmetics, and perfumes can also speed up the metal's oxidation process or damage the surface. Additionally, soil and many household cleaners contain abrasive substances that may leave scratches on the metal surface. Therefore, we recommend wearing gloves or removing jewelry when doing household chores. For needs such as re-plating, polishing, or professional cleaning, please message us for inquiries.
