Care

Rhodium keeps it bright — a soft cloth and a dry drawer are the whole routine. Where that layer finally wears, the same cloth brings the silver back

What these words mean, and what they cost us

Solid sterling silver 925 — not a coating over something else, so there is no finish to wear through.

Silver darkens with air and skin. That is oxidation, not damage, and a soft cloth undoes it; a piece worn often barely darkens at all. Keep it away from chlorine, and take it off before the pool.

Posted by hand from our studio in Ukraine, tracked from the moment it leaves us. Usually 7 to 14 business days to most of the United States — good things travel a little further.

Nothing to pay on arrival. Duties and import charges are settled by us in advance, so the price at checkout is the whole price.

Changed your mind? 30 days to send it back. Write to us first and we will tell you where; return postage is yours unless the piece arrived faulty or wrong — then a photo is enough.

Most pieces are one size, and rings are not sized at all. Almost all of ours are open at the back and squeeze gently to fit; a few are elastic or draw in on a chain, and the page says which. So there is no size to pick and nothing to be between — if a band sits loose, press it in a little with your fingers.

Is it solid silver? Yes — sterling silver 925 the whole way through, not a silver colour over another metal. There is no finish on it that can wear off.

Will it tarnish? All silver does. Air and skin darken it slowly; a soft cloth takes it straight back, and a piece you wear often hardly darkens at all.

What is the rhodium for? Where Specifications lists it, a thin rhodium layer sits over the silver and keeps it bright. When it finally wears, the silver underneath is still silver — the same cloth brings it back.
