​What materials do you use?

We source gemstones, crystals, and bead materials from vendors who are eco-conscious, support Fair Trade, and uphold sustainability practices for mined resources. Our genuine chrome-tanned leather is supplied by a trusted local vendor established in 1919—a legacy rooted in craftsmanship, community, and inclusivity. Their mission supports the timeless art of leatherworking while uplifting diverse creators through shared tradition.

​Are your designs hypoallergenic?

I prioritize high-quality, skin-friendly materials in every piece. Most designs feature PVD-coated metals or stainless steel, known for their durability and overall compatibility with sensitive skin.

While sensitivities can vary, I thoughtfully select components for both comfort and longevity. If you have specific concerns, please reach out—I’m always happy to help guide you to the best option for your journey.

​Will my chosen design tarnish? 

Every design is made with materials chosen for their beauty, durability, and ability to travel with you.

Many pieces include tarnish-resistant components like PVD-coated metals and stainless steel. However, natural aging may occur over time, especially with exposure to moisture, perfume, or open air.

✨ Care Tip: Store your jewelry in the soft bags provided, and keep them in a dry, cool space when not in use. Following the included care guide will help preserve your piece for years to come.

These designs feature water-friendly materials and secure construction so you can move freely, without worry. If a product qualifies, you’ll see Swim Worthy (SW) clearly noted in its description.
