If you do not have a soft measuring tape, you can use a piece of string or paper strip to wrap around your wrist once, then measure the length with a ruler. 📏 Please provide your actual wrist measurement taken snugly against your skin, with no extra space. When crafting the bracelet, we will allow for approximately 0.5-1 cm of movement space based on your wrist measurement for a comfortable fit. How does wrist size affect the bracelet? With different wrist sizes, the quantity of crystals and brass components may vary slightly, but the overall design style and arrangement direction will remain unchanged. ⚠️ If modifications are needed due to incorrect wrist measurement: • General Adjustments: Round-trip shipping fees will apply. • Clasp Bracelets: An additional NT$50 adjustment fee will be charged. • Wrists 16 cm and above: Additional charges will apply due to increased material costs. ⸻ 《Purchase Information》 All products from this studio are handcrafted and made-to-order. Each bracelet is personally selected and assembled by us. Except for products with obvious defects or manufacturing errors, custom and ordered items are non-returnable and non-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, inclusions, mineral deficiencies, color variations, or natural textures, and no two will be exactly alike. These natural markings are the unique charm of natural minerals. 💎 If you are seeking crystals that are perfectly uniform and free from any natural imperfections, please confirm your acceptance before placing an order. 📿 Jewelry will naturally change over time. Brass may oxidize and change color, and components may fade or show wear due to sweat, friction, and environmental conditions. These are normal signs of use. ⸻ 《Can I wear it while bathing?》 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 significantly after prolonged exposure to moisture. Elastic cords soaked in water over time may also affect their lifespan. For clasp bracelets, which are inconvenient to remove daily, prolonged wear tests typically show that the brass parts begin to darken first. If you do not mind the natural oxidation of brass over time, wearing it occasionally for bathing is not entirely forbidden. However, it is still recommended to: • 🛀🏻 Avoid prolonged contact with body wash, shampoo, and detergents. • 💦 Rinse the bracelet thoroughly after bathing. • 🧻 Dry it completely with a towel or hairdryer before storing. • ♨️ Avoid prolonged immersion in hot water. To preserve your bracelet for longer, removing it during baths, hot spring soaks, or swimming is the ideal approach. ⸻ 《Materials》 🔮 Crystals, Minerals, Pearls All are natural materials, each possessing naturally formed unique textures and colors. ✨ Metal Accessories Metal components, other than crystals, primarily use brass, gold-filled/gold-plated K gold, and other materials. The specific material varies by design. 📿 Clasp Bracelets Uses Japanese steel wire soft cord, a common material for jewelry, known for its excellent strength and wear resistance. 🧵 Stretch Bracelets Uses Japanese silk elastic cord, constructed with a double-strand technique to enhance the bracelet's stability and durability. The lifespan of elastic cord varies depending on the frequency of wear, degree of stretching, exposure to moisture, and individual usage habits. If the cord shows signs of excessive pilling, loosening, or breakage, please stop wearing it immediately and send it back for repair to prevent the crystals from scattering. ⸻ 《Crystal Cleansing and Daily Care》 After wearing your crystal daily, you can perform "cleansing/de-magnetizing" according to your personal habits. If you have a crystal cave or cluster at home, you can place the bracelet in it overnight. Alternatively, you can use white crystal chips placed in a clean small dish, with the bracelet resting on top. ✨ There is no fixed frequency for cleansing; simply follow your usage habits. There is no need for excessive frequency. ⸻ 《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 color darkens, you can: • Gently polish with a jewelry cloth or a cloth suitable for brass. • Lightly clean with a mild neutral detergent after wearing. • Ensure it is completely dry after cleaning before storing. When not wearing it, you can also rinse off sweat with water and dry it with a cloth. 💡 To prevent moisture from lingering between beads and not drying completely, you can use a hairdryer on a "cool setting" before storing it in a zip-lock bag. ⚠️ Please 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 Tips》 If you tend to sweat easily, it is advisable to clean your bracelet regularly. Over time, sweat and dirt can accumulate between beads. When washing your hands with a mild neutral detergent, you can also give your bracelet a simple clean. After cleaning, remember to: Rinse thoroughly → Dry → Ensure complete dryness → Then store Keep your crystal bracelet clean and extend its lifespan. ☺️ ⸻ 🤍 Final Reminder Each imperfection in natural crystal is a unique mark left by nature. The color changes in brass over time will also gradually leave behind traces of your usage on each piece. If you are particularly concerned about the natural textures, mineral deficiencies, color variations of natural crystals, or the oxidation 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. ✨
