Silver and bronze will naturally oxidize or tarnish over time. I use a little commercial cleaner or a dab of toothpaste, water and a soft brush; rinse and dry. You may want to try sealing jewelry in an airtight container that's lined with aluminum foil. As a LAST resort, I place baking soda and aluminum foil in a ceramic bowl with the jewelry and pour in boiling water. Rinse and dry.

Never ever use a sonic cleaner on soft stones, especially turquoise, pearl and opal.

New designs may be sold in fine silver or if you can wait a month or so, I may have the design cast in sterling or white bronze to increase durability and reduce the cost.

New designs in fine silver will be one of a kind items and must be purchased in full before work begins.

I will try my very best to create designs that work for both you and me, but I'm sure you will understand that I may not be able to fulfill your design request.

If your purchase is a gift sent directly to the recipient, mark the transaction as a gift so the price is not shown on the packing slip. For international addresses, the price will be listed on the shipping label.
