Freeform Lapis Lazuli Metalsmith Necklace

* Each one of my jewelry pieces is handmade with love by me. I hand select these natural materials, thus there may be slight variations in color and/or size. 

* Due to the handmade nature of the pieces there may be some minor tool marks on the wire wrap and metalsmith pieces. This should not be considered a flaw but an indication of natural materials and handmade craftsmanship.

* The pieces are photographed in natural light to capture their colour as accurately as possible, however, monitors may be set to different colour settings and may alter the colour.

Cleaning:

• Use a polishing cloth to remove tarnish from sterling silver and copper and to remove dirt and fingerprints from the stones.
• It is not recommended to use polishing cloths on silver plated or brass plated metal as it will wear off the outer layer of metal faster.
• Never use chemicals or abrasives on your jewelry as they will scratch the metal and may dull or even corrode your stone. 

Storage:

• Store pieces in plastic bags to prevent tangles, scratches and slow down oxidation. 
• Do not store pieces in humid or hot areas, such as bathrooms, as it may cause them to tarnish faster.

Maintain: 

• Do not wear when sleeping.
• Keep in a cool, dry place. Avoid wearing your jewelry in water when swimming or showering.
• Apply perfume and body lotions before putting on jewelry. Think jewelry off first, on last. 
• Do not apply heavy pressure to the wires on wire wrapped pieces.
