Patination is a technique used to create a beautiful, aged effect on metal surfaces. By applying special treatments, we encourage the natural oxidation process, which results in unique green, blue, or bronze tones. Each piece develops its own distinct character, making every patinated earring a one-of-a-kind accessory. This process is inspired by how metals age gracefully over time, adding depth and texture to the design.
How to take care of your brass jewelry:
Avoid Moisture: Keep your jewelry dry and remove it before bathing, swimming, or exercising to prevent tarnish
Store Properly: Store in a dry, airtight container or pouch to reduce exposure to air and humidity, which can cause oxidation.
Clean Gently: Use a soft cloth to wipe away dirt or fingerprints. For a deeper clean, mix a little lemon juice or vinegar with salt, gently rub it on the brass, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Minimize Chemicals: Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, or household cleaners, as these can cause discoloration.
Polish Occasionally: Use a brass polish or a natural polishing cloth to restore shine when needed, but take care not to over-polish patinated finishes, as this can remove the aged effect.
With proper care, your brass jewelry will maintain its charm and beauty for years to come!
