Gold filled jewelry has a very thick layer of real gold fused by heat/pressure bonding on to a base metal (usually brass or copper). It can get wet but avoid contact with chemicals in lotions, sunscreens, perfume etc.

Gold vermeil jewelry has a layer of real gold electroplated on to a base that is .925 sterling silver. Over time the gold might fade so avoid harsh chemicals, salt water and chlorine to keep the finish longer.

Sterling Silver + Brass
Both metals will eventually oxidize when exposed to oxygen/moisture but it's fairly easy to polish them back to their original shine with a brass/silver cleaner/polishing cloth or other natural remedies.

When not wearing your jewelry it's best to store it in an airtight container.

All jewelry arrives nicely packaged in a white gift box. To avoid excess packaging I pack multiple items in one box but if you need separate packaging please let me know.

If the jewelry is a gift and is being sent directly to the recipient, I'll print out any notes/messages and will include them on a small gift card.

There are upgraded shipping options (expedited and express) at checkout. (I'll refund any shipping overages over $1USD).
