💎 Jewelry Care Instructions
Special Note for Vintage Faceted Agate and Hammered Brass Earrings
This long-dangle style is crafted from Faceted Agate and Hammered Brass, offering a culturally rich, vintage look. The default ear hook is Brass (a non-precious metal that oxidizes quickly), and the Agate requires protection from physical shock. This piece is suitable for daily wear but must be protected from moisture and impact.
I. Daily Wear Cautions (Strict Removal Required)
- 🚫 Strict Water & Chemical Avoidance
- Strictly Avoid Water and Sweat: Do NOT wear these earrings while showering, bathing, swimming, or during strenuous exercise. Water and sweat will rapidly tarnish the Brass elements and may compromise the stone setting.
- Avoid Chemicals: Keep jewelry away from perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and cleaning agents. These substances accelerate the corrosion of the brass and can dull the agate’s finish.
- 🛌 Must Remove Before Sleeping or Exercising
- Prevent Tugging Damage: Due to the approximate 5.5cm dangle length, it is critical to take off the earrings before sleeping or intense physical activity to prevent the long dangles from being snagged, crushed, or bent, which could damage the Agate.
II. Storage and Maintenance
- Proper Storage (Keep Dry and Safe)
When not wearing them, store the earrings in a cool, dry place. Store them in a separate pouch or a sealed jewelry box to protect the Brass from air exposure and moisture, which helps prevent tarnish.
- Gentle Cleaning
If needed, gently wipe the components with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Never use liquid cleaners, jewelry dips, or abrasive cloths, as these will damage the brass patina and the Agate surface.
