Custom and personalized orders

Most anything in my shop can be customized or personalized. If you want a specific length chain or something made in a specific size or possibly custom stamped with a personalized message, those are all options on most items. I also welcome custom requests and love working with my customers to create the perfect gift or special piece of jewelry. If you can dream it, I can probably make it! Convo me for details. Please note, "custom" refers to anything that's made in a special size or with special attributes requested by the customer. Custom items are not eligible for return or exchange. Payment must be made in full for custom requests.

If you see a design in my shop that isn't your size convo me and I'll do my best to accommodate your needs. Buyer is responsible for providing correct ring sizes for custom merchandise orders. Keep in mind that thicker or wider bands or rings could require the wearer to wear a larger size than usual. I recommend stopping by a local jewelry store to get sized. It only takes a few minutes, is free of charge and will ensure you get the perfect fit! No worries if you order the wrong size. I offer resizing for most rings without set stones for a flat rate of $25 plus return shipping. Orders with set stones are excluded from resizing. Some metalwork designs cannot be resized due to the nature of their design. Message me with any questions!

Chemical cleansers are not recommended. To clean bare metals use a polishing cloth or organic ketchup to restore shine. Applied patinas on jewelry are not permanent and will change and evolve with wear and surface contact. Keep your jewelry out of contact with water, lotions and cleaning chemicals to protect patinas. I recommend removing patinated jewelry before washing hands, bathing or strenuous activity where sweat will react with patinas. Copper & patina jewelry should NOT be worn during heavy physical activity (work out, swimming, yard work, etc) to prevent harmless skin oxidation and to help retain patina. Keeping skin dry is key to prevention. If skin oxidation does occur, simply wash the area with soapy water.

Gift wrapping and packaging

All jewelry from my studio arrives attractively packaged and ready for gifting or keeps. My jewelry boxes are made in the United States of post consumer recycled paper. I carve most of my own stamps and personally apply the design to just about every box so that each is a work of art in itself! If you have a particular color scheme to match please contact me for options. I love creative packaging and enjoy making the outside of the box as pretty as the contents inside.

Wholesale availability

As an artist and designer I take great pride in offering unique, one-of-a-kind jewelry that's made special for the individual ordering. For these reasons I do not offer wholesale or mass produce my work.

Copper and alloys such as brass and bronze can leave oxidation on the skin and most often this depends on your individual body chemistry and the grooming products you use (lotions / soaps / shampoos). This is not indicative of poor quality, but is instead natural and to be expected. This is caused by a chemical reaction between the skin, elements air and water and the metal alloy. This is a harmless reaction and usually occurs if the jewelry is worn too tightly, if the wearer is sweating or if hands are not dried thoroughly after washing. Oxidation can be washed off with soap and water. Copper and copper alloy jewelry has been used since the advent of metallurgy.

What is a stock item? Are all stock items ready to ship?

Most everything in my shop is made to order. That means when you order it, it goes into the production queue and I make it in the order it was received and ship it no later than 14 business days. Some items are already made & ready to ship & the listings will reflect that. Check each listing and if you have questions, please ask BEFORE ordering. Production times for made to order items can vary. I have a 5-7 day production for items like stud earrings & for all other made-to-order items, I have a production time is 14 business days. If you are working against a deadline, please notify me before ordering to make sure that I can accommodate your request. Sometimes production can be expedited. Sometimes only shipping can be expedited.

What items are not eligible for exchange or return?

Personalized or custom requests including items that are size-specific are not eligible for return / exchange. This includes cuffs / bracelets made to your specific size or finger rings & bands. Some style rings can be resized for $25 plus shipping. Items sold on sale including free shipping promotions are not eligible for return / exchange. Body jewelry including earrings & hair accessories are not eligible for return / exchange due to sanitary reasons. Items that were altered per the customer's request cannot be returned / exchanged. Items that are eligible for return are no longer eligible after 7 days of delivery. After you have placed an order it is not eligible for cancellation unless you notify me the same day you ordered.

I have gotten a tracking number but it says "Pre-transit" status and the tracking has not updated

I often print postage a few days early before an item is scheduled to ship. I set up a production line that includes the envelopes, boxes and invoices so that once production is done I can easily box and ship orders. Production time is no longer than 14 biz days (excluding holidays / weekends) on most orders and that timeline starts the next biz day after the order was placed. Tracking shows "pre transit" until it reaches USPS. Tracking will show "in-transit" once the package has actually shipped. When I print postage, the Etsy system will auto generate a shipping notification that gets sent to your email. I have a note attached that explains your postage has been printed and tracking will update once the item has been delivered to the USPS

I placed an order and want to cancel it now. Is this an option?

The only time an order is eligible for cancellation is if you reach out to me the same day that you place the order. I understand that accidents happen sometimes when checking out and I am happy to cancel and refund your order if you contact me the same day and as soon as possible after you place the order. Otherwise, no, you cannot place an order and then cancel it. I am very firm on this policy. Most often supplies have to be ordered for your specific project since most of the items in my shop are made to order and production, including placing orders for supplies, begins right away in order for me to maintain a quick turnaround of 14 business day production / ship time.

These long rustic bar earrings are so versatile and extremely popular right now. They have a simple, minimalistic vibe and go with practically anything! I hand forge and hammer pure, organic copper into the rustic, worn finished form. Each piece of copper has been smoothed, sanded, buffed and naturally patinated for texture and contrast.

Your earrings will arrive attractively packaged and ready for gifting or for keeps.

EAR WIRE OPTIONS:

I finish each pair of earrings with either hand forged copper or oxidized sterling silver ear wires.
Choose your desired finish from the drop down menu at checkout.

MEASUREMENTS:

These earrings are custom made just for you! Choose from a variety of earring lengths from the dropdown menu.
If you need a length that is not specified simply leave your comments in the notes at checkout! (earrings pictured have a 3" drop) When ordering, the measurement you choose will include the overall drop measurement of the earring which is from the curve of the ear wire (where it goes in the ear) to the bottom of the bar.

Feel free to convo me if you have any questions about how to measure.

ABOUT COPPER:

Copper is the 7th anniversary gift.

The patina on copper and copper alloys is always a beautiful and unique work in progress due to the nature in which it reacts to the elements and the wearer's personal chemistry. Copper is lovely against the skin when worn and will retain and radiate warmth and energy. Skin oxidation can occur and is natural. It can be easily washed off with soapy water.
