If you don't have a measuring tape, you can use a thin string or strip of paper to wrap around your wrist and then measure the length with a ruler. 📏 Please provide the actual measurement that is snug against your wrist, with no extra space left. When crafting the bracelet, we will add approximately 0.5~1 cm of movement space based on your wrist measurement for a more comfortable fit. What does wrist size affect? Different wrist sizes may result in a slight increase or decrease in the number of crystals and brass components, but the overall design style and aesthetic direction will remain unchanged. ⚠️ If modifications are needed due to incorrect wrist measurement: • General Modifications: Round-trip shipping fees will apply. • Clasp Bracelets: An additional modification fee of NT$50 will be charged. • Wrist sizes 16 cm and above: Additional charges will apply due to increased material usage. ⸻ 《Purchase Notice》 All products from our studio are handmade and made-to-order. Each bracelet is personally selected and crafted by us. Except for products with obvious defects or manufacturing errors, custom and made-to-order items are non-refundable or exchangeable. 🔮 Natural Characteristics of Natural Crystals The crystals, minerals, and pearls we use are all natural materials. Therefore, each piece may have slight internal fractures, cotton-like inclusions, mineral gaps, color variations, or natural textures, and no two will be exactly alike. These natural traces are precisely what make natural minerals uniquely charming. 💎 If you seek crystals that are perfectly uniform and without any natural marks, please confirm your acceptance before placing an order. 📿 Accessories will naturally change over time with use. Brass may oxidize and discolor. Accessories may also fade or wear due to sweat, friction, and the environment of use, all of which are normal signs of wear. ⸻ 《Can I wear it while showering?》 Crystals themselves are generally not afraid of contact with water. However, brass and elastic cords are less suitable for prolonged exposure to moisture, sweat, and cleaning agents. Brass tends to oxidize and darken after prolonged contact with moisture; elastic cords soaked in water for extended periods may also affect their lifespan. For clasp bracelets, which are inconvenient to remove and put on daily, practical testing shows that the brass parts typically darken first after prolonged wear. If you don't mind the natural oxidation of brass over time, occasional showering is not strictly forbidden, but it is still recommended to: • 🛀🏻 Avoid prolonged contact with shower gels, shampoos, and detergents. • 💦 Rinse the bracelet thoroughly after showering. • 🧻 Dry completely with a towel or hairdryer before storing. • ♨️ Avoid prolonged immersion in hot water. To ensure your bracelet lasts longer, removing it while showering, soaking in hot springs, or swimming is the ideal approach. ⸻ 《Materials》 🔮 Crystals・Minerals・Pearls All are made from natural materials, each with uniquely formed natural textures and colors. ✨ Metal Accessories The metal accessories, other than crystals, are primarily made of brass, gold-plated/K-gold plated materials, etc. The actual materials vary depending on the style. 📿 Clasp Bracelets Uses Japanese steel wire gold thread, a common material for jewelry, known for its strength and durability. 🧵 Elastic Bracelets Uses Japanese silk elastic cord, crafted with a double-strand technique to enhance the bracelet's stability and durability. The lifespan of elastic cords varies depending on the frequency of wear, degree of stretching, contact with moisture, and individual usage habits. If the cord shows signs of significant fuzzing, loosening, or breakage, stop wearing it immediately and send it back for repair to prevent the crystals from scattering. ⸻ 《Crystal Purification and Daily Care》 After daily wear, crystals can be "purified/cleansed" according to personal habits. If you have a crystal geode or cluster at home, you can place the bracelet in it overnight. Alternatively, you can place the bracelet on top of white crystal chips in a clean small dish to rest. ✨ There is no fixed frequency for purification; simply follow your usage habits. Over-frequent purification is unnecessary. ⸻ 《Brass Accessory Care》 Brass oxidizes to varying degrees due to sweat, humidity, air, and individual body chemistry, so the rate of discoloration differs for everyone. If the brass darkens: • Gently wipe with a polishing cloth for gold or a suitable brass polishing cloth. • Briefly clean with a mild neutral detergent after wearing. • Ensure complete drying after cleaning before storing. When not wearing it, you can also rinse off sweat with clean water and dry it with a cloth. 💡 To prevent moisture from hiding between beads and not drying completely, you can use a hairdryer on a "cool setting" to dry it before storing it in a zip-lock bag. ⚠️ Ensure the bracelet is completely dry before storing. Prolonged exposure to humid environments can accelerate brass oxidation and shorten the lifespan of elastic cords. ⸻ 《Daily Cleaning Reminder》 If you tend to sweat easily, it is recommended to clean your bracelet regularly. Over time, sweat and dirt can accumulate between the beads. When washing your hands with a mild neutral detergent, you can take the opportunity to briefly clean the bracelet. After cleaning, remember to: Rinse thoroughly → Dry with a towel → Ensure complete dryness → Then store This will keep your crystal bracelet clean and extend the life of your jewelry. ☺️ ⸻ 🤍 Final Reminder Every imperfection in natural crystals is a unique imprint left by nature; the color changes in brass over time will also gradually leave behind marks of your use on each piece. If you are particularly concerned about natural textures, mineral gaps, or color variations in natural crystals, or the oxidation and discoloration of brass, please confirm and consider carefully before placing an order. Thank you for allowing "Philosopher’s Stone" to accompany you in collecting your own unique crystal. ✨
