All L.Greenwalt Jewelry comes with a L.Greenwalt Jewelry box, and tissue paper, beautiful and ready for gift giving.

Our * shiny * finished styles can be gently cleaned using a standard jewelry polishing cloth. This especially works well on brass, bronze, and sterling silver metals and can also be used for gold fill.

Gold fill can also be gently cleaned by using a clean rag and rubbing alcohol or by running your item under warm soapy water, rinse and gently pat dry.

Our * matte * Brass, and Sterling Silver styles come with care kits. Please follow the instructions enclosed in your care kit to maintain that nice satin glow.

What is shiny? Think of a glossy finish, that yields glimmers of light when moved.

What is matte? Think of the finish of a chalk board, no gloss, or shine. A flatter surface that yields little to no shine.

Gold Fill is an actual thick layer of gold that is bonded to a base metal (in our case that base metal is brass; an alloy of copper and zinc).

While gold plating is very, very thin and vulnerable to flaking and fading, gold fill is resilient and can last for years without diminishing because it has a substantially larger amount of gold.

Gold fill is an excellent economical option to pure gold, as well as environmentally. Our gold fill may also contain up to 85% recycled gold.
