Wearing your bracelet

To put on your bracelet, please very carefully slide the two magnetic clasps apart from each other, this should be done smoothly and easily.

Please NEVER try to wear or adjust the bracelet by pulling the leather apart. Although the bracelets are strong and durable, with too much force the leather can be pulled from the steel fittings.

Should this occur, it can be remedied by re-affixing with super glue or similar adhesive.

Caring for your bracelet

Your bracelet is made from stainless steel, cows’ leather and UV resin, please read the resin care sheet provided.

Stainless steel is very durable, so a good choice for hard wearing daily wear

However, it can be susceptible to certain elements such as chlorine, household and other chemicals. Therefore, it is highly advised to remove before swimming, or working with chemicals.

Always remove before bathing / showering.

Leather should also be kept away from water as exposure can remove the natural essential oils, causing it to dry out and become brittle. If your jewellery becomes wet, pat dry with a towel and leave to air dry naturally. Do NOT use a hair dryer, radiator, heater or fire.

As with all jewellery, store out of direct sunlight. This will protect the leather from drying out / cracking

DISCLAIMER

I retain the right to refuse a remake or repair if I believe that the item has not been cared for following the above instructions.

Resin jewellery is hard-wearing but to get the best out of your pieces and ensure that they last a lifetime please try to adhere to the following advice. This will keep your pieces looking their best and save your having to pay for the resin jewellery to be replaced. Some resin jewellery clients don’t follow the instructions and their pieces are fine, but it is best to be on the safe side. The instructions are the same for epoxy and UV based pieces, however all products that I make will be UV resin.

Scrapes

· Try to avoid bumping and scratching your piece as this could damage it. Avoid using tools and doing manual work with the piece on.

Water

· Do NOT submerge your piece of jewellery in water. Resin is NOT waterproof, only water resistant. SO please remember to remove your jewellery before showering, swimming, or washing up etc.

Heat

· If your piece is exposed to big temperature fluctuations, it might expand and contract which can cause the elements inside to separate.

Sunlight

· Store your jewellery out of direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the resin to discolour and soften.

Smoking

· If your piece is in regular contact with smoke it will usually yellow. However, some wearers of resin jewellery that do smoke and have worn their pieces for years have not seen discolouration.

Chemicals

· Avoid exposing your jewellery to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. This includes antibacterial hand sanitiser, perfume, hair spray, cleaning solutions, nail polish remover and chlorine etc.

When Resin Jewellery Care Has Been Forgotten

I ask clients to retain elements such as cremation ashes and fur because it makes a remake possible if needed. If you have not retained the elements, I may not be able to remake your item. Please note however that a remake will NOT be identical to your initial product as all items are unique. A charge will be incurred for any remakes.

Yellowing

· Yellowing is almost always due to resin care rather than the brand of resin. The resin I use is of high quality and should not yellow if it is cared for properly.

Dullness and Scratches

· If your piece has dulled or has been scratched or scraped, I can add a new topcoat layer. This will be for a small fee plus postage.

Thank you for reading, I will do my best to help if your piece needs a new topcoat or a remake.

DISCLAIMER

I retain the right to refuse a remake or repair if I believe that the item has not been cared for following the above instructions.

I will send you a small stone in your order kit, made in your chosen colour for reference. Please contact me if you'd like to change colours. If I do not hear otherwise, I will use my discretion and create your final piece.
