JEWELRY CARE TIPS:
A little love goes a long way! Please handle your piece with care as each piece is handmade with thin, delicate chains and pendants that can tarnish or tangle if mistreated.
Remove your jewelry when applying sprays, perfumes and lotions. Jewelry should also be removed when showering, exercising and swimming. All of these can be hard on jewelry and will speed up the aging process.
To keep your piece looking its best, you can occasionally gently rub the surface with a polishing cloth after every use (do not use jewelry cleaning solutions).
When you’re not wearing your jewelry, be sure to store it in the pouch it came in, a jewelry box or plastic bag. Storing it away from light and oxygen helps prevent tarnishing and oxidization.
Everybody’s unique skin oils react differently to certain metals and plating. We are not responsible for your skin's reaction to our products. Gold Plated, Gold Filled, Silver plated & Rhodium jewelry will turn naturally over time, and there is no way to reverse this. You can prolong the life of your Lavender and Grace pieces by following our care recommendations.
It is important to note that all our jewelry is 100% Nickel and Lead free!

HERRINGBONE CHAINS:
The intricately woven chain on our Spencer Herringbone Chain, Spencer Luxe Herringbone Chain & Mini Spencer Herringbone Chain require extra care. We recommend that it be stored laying flat at all times. Be mindful when taking it on and off to not bend the chain. It should be removed before going to sleep, and doing any strenuous activities as we are unable to repair kinks and dents that may occur with regular wear.
RINGS:
Remove your rings when washing hands, applying sanitizer, sprays, perfumes and lotions etc. Our rings should also be removed when showering, exercising and swimming. All of these can be hard on jewelry and will speed up the aging process!
