Amethyst pendant, made of 925 Silver(some are 999 Silver), the overall size (pendant body, length x width) is 36x30mm, paired with a 925 Silver, the Stone on the chain is black Stone, the total length of the necklace is 39cm + 6cm extension chain . This piece has no distressing and is original sterling silver. Previously, a friend asked me that there seemed to be fewer faceted Stone in my works. In fact, the reason is very simple. I usually don’t particularly keep faceted Stone on hand. The main reason is that the price of good faceted Stone, even semi- Gemstone, is relatively low. It is relatively high, and most of the ones I have on hand are intended to be collected by myself, so there are fewer Stone that can be used for general works, but they can actually be made. Both faceted and cabochon Stone have their own beauty. If I find a suitable Stone, I will invest more in creation. Amethyst faceted Gemstone are common and relatively affordable. This is one of the few Stone collected for metal work. It has a classic frame shape, with simple curves and Decorated with flowers, the length of the chain is adjustable from the clavicle chain to under the clavicle, just enough to bloom in the small world of the neckline. ❖Photos of the works are mostly taken in natural light during the day, and the dimensions are length x width (x thickness). ❖Metalwork and silver jewelry works do not come with chains by default. In addition to commercially available Silver, it is also recommended to pair sterling silver vulcanized distressed works with Stainless Steel chains, which are more matching in color. ❖During the metal wire weaving and production process, the wire may be slightly pinched/cut due to the strength of the operating hand, which basically does not affect the wearing effect. ❖The label "Art Bronze" is a special wire for crafts with Bronze+ plating + protective layer. "Red Bronze" and "Bronze wire" are marked as bare Bronze(no electroplating). The Silver wire will be marked as 925 or 999 Silver. ❖Natural stones may be born with characteristics such as clouds, lines, ore defects. There may also be small flaws in drilling and polishing. ❖Shipment is preset for simple packaging, with clean anti-collision packaging materials and shipping bags, and sealed bags for easy storage. [Artistic Bronze braided jewelry] ❖ Artistic Bronze is a special craft wire made of pure copper wire + electroplating layer + protective layer. Under normal use and maintenance, the color can be maintained for several years without much change. ❖ Because there is electroplating and protective layer on the surface, please do not use Silver wiping cloth or toothpaste for cleaning, as this will cause the plating to wear out quickly. ❖ After wearing it, please wipe away any moisture (especially sweat) with a soft cloth and store it in the attached sealed bag. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing it in situations where you sweat a lot, such as sports, or in hot springs. In addition to accelerating the wear of the wire, it may also damage the natural stone. [Electroless Bronze/ Silver wire braided jewelry/metalworking sterling silver jewelry] ❖ Red Bronze and Bronze wire. Silver wires are all electroless-plated wires and naturally oxidize as a normal phenomenon (they will gradually turn into bronze/silver). The color and oxidation rate will be slightly different depending on the wear and personal physique, which is also one of the characteristics of bare Bronze jewelry. In terms of oxidation speed, red Bronze feels faster (it may turn into antique red Bronze in a few days to weeks), while Bronze and Silver are slower. ❖ The tone of the wire after vulcanization (distressing) treatment will be more stable than that of the untreated wire, but the polished parts will also gradually oxidize naturally. ❖ If you want to clean the oxidized part, you can generally use a Silver wiping cloth to wipe it, or use toothpaste to scrub it gently and then dry it or blow dry it with a hair dryer. ❖ After daily wear, you can use a soft cloth to dry the moisture and store it in the enclosed sealed bag. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing it in situations where you sweat a lot, such as sports, or in hot springs. In addition to accelerating the oxidation of the wire, it may also damage the natural stone. ❖ All works without electroplated wire can be sent back for re-polishing (you only need to pay the return shipping fee) 【Natural stone】 ❖ Natural ores may have clouds, lines, mineral defects, and black spots, and there may also be small flaws in drilling and polishing during processing. ❖ Most of the natural stones used in the works are semi- Gemstone. Some types of minerals may have low hardness (will be specially noted). Please try to avoid letting Silver wiping cloths, toothpaste and other abrasive and polishing items come into contact with the natural stones when maintaining the metal parts of the jewelry. part. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing it in situations where you sweat a lot, such as sports, or when soaking in hot springs. It may damage the natural stone.
