Care
Bronze:
The bronze pendant will naturally patina over time. Use a gentle bronze cleaner or polishing cloth when needed to bring it back to its original bright state. Store in a cool, dark place in an airtight container when not wearing.
14k Gold Fil:
14/20 gold fill is made from solid 14k gold which is 'filled' with other alloys. Unlike gold plate, it will not flake, and the surface will not turn your fingers like brass can do. Gold fill is a much thicker layer of gold than gold plate, but can still wear over time. To maintain the gold surface and prevent wear, be gentle with your piece and store in a cool, dry place. Very gently polish by hand with a clean cotton cloth when needed.
Freshwater Pearls:
Pearls are a softer organic gem, and require extra care. Be gentle with your pearl pieces to avoid scratching or chipping the surface. Always remove rings while washing hands, and avoid submerging your piece in water. Store your piece in a cool, dry place.
