Material Information- Natural Garnet, crafted entirely with 925 sterling silver. The black areas are intentionally treated with a sulfurization process. Q: What is the common "sulfurization treatment" for Nepalese jewelry? A: When silver jewelry turns black, "oxidation" is a common folk term. Oxidation refers to a substance reacting with oxygen. However, silver (jewelry) turning black is a reaction with "sulfur" in the air. Therefore, the black substance on the surface of silver (jewelry) (which can be coffee-colored, light brown, dark brown, or reddish-brown) is "silver sulfide." If silver (jewelry) isn't properly maintained, it will turn black and lose its luster. So, the correct term should be "sulfurization," which results from reactions with hydrogen sulfide in the air or sulfur dioxide in moisture, forming silver sulfide on the surface of the silver (jewelry). In Nepalese silversmithing, deliberate "sulfurization" treatments (giving a black or antique appearance) are applied to enhance the distinctive character of the artisan piece! If you dislike this effect, you can try gently brushing the sulfurized areas multiple times with a soft brush dipped in toothpaste to remove them.

However, as these pieces are entirely handmade, there is a slight possibility of minor imperfections appearing on the stones during the setting process. Some may be visible to the naked eye, while others might be undetectable. Please confirm that you can accept these potential "flaws of beauty" before making a purchase.

We encourage you to inquire or research this information beforehand as well. 😊) ■ Shipping Information All of Nellie's items are shipped from Nepal.
