Product Care & Size Information


The condition of a jewellery piece can be affected by various different factors. Always protect your jewellery from the elements such as sunlight and heat/cold to minimise these effects. Ideally, do not sleep with your jewellery pieces on, especially our beaded bracelets as they may stretch the elastic cord and break. Store your jewellery in its Dana Levy soft lined cotton pouch when not in use. This will keep them looking their best and keep in best condition for as long as they are looked after.
Here are some guidelines on looking after our jewellery products:
Charms, Chains & Findings
All plated charms, chains and findings that we use in our jewellery and accessories collections are plated brass unless stated otherwise. To avoid tarnishing, Please refrain from getting the item wet or immersing in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool). Do not expose pieces to chemicals such as perfume, body oils, hand sanitizer, household chemicals and hairspray as this will cause discolouration.
Our porcelain, ceramic and glass charms and amulets must be handled with extra care. If they are knocked or dropped they will chip or break.
Bracelets on Elastic Cord
Our Czech glass bead and semi-precious gemstone beaded bracelets are hand strung on strong elastic cord (the strongest elastic cord on the market) and should keep in perfect condition if treated properly. It’s best to roll them on and off your hand rather than stretching the elastic to avoid them snapping. Please refrain from sleeping with them on, immersing them in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool) or exposing them to chemicals such as perfume, body oils, hand sanitizer (It's particularly harsh on jewellery due to its high alcohol content - Please keep it well away), household chemicals and hairspray as this weakens the elastic cord and can cause them to snap. Handle your bracelet with care to avoid knocks that may crack the ceramic, porcelain, glass or gemstone charms and beads and cause them to break.
Please also note that as elastic is a natural fibre it can harden over time and can snap. This is just the nature of elastic material. However, the more you wear your bracelet the longer it will stay agile and last a long time.
Necklaces
Our various collections of chokers and necklaces including chain, cord, freshwater pearl and glass beaded chokers and necklaces should only be worn as necklaces around the neck (rather than as bracelets or anklets) to avoid the cord becoming misshapen. Please refrain from sleeping with them on, getting them wet or immersing in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool) as they can lose their shape and/or tarnish. Do not expose them to chemicals such as perfume, body/suntan oils, hand sanitizer, household chemicals and hairspray as this will cause discolouration too. Protect them by avoiding excessive impact against hard surfaces so they don't get scratched or break.
Most of the beads we use on our handmade glass bead chokers and necklaces are pressed glass so the bead colour won’t fade but we do have some pieces made with colour coated glass seed beads (this will be noted on the product pages). They must not be worn when wearing perfume or body/suntan oils or be immersed in water as the bead colours will fade or peel off.
Fabric, Satin & Leather Cord Jewellery Pieces
To avoid discolouration, please refrain from immersing the jewellery piece in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool) as their colour may run or fade, and will weaken the fabric, satin or leather cord as well as the plated findings. Do not expose the jewellery piece to chemicals such as perfume, body oils, hand sanitizer, household chemicals and hairspray as this can cause discolouration.
Earrings
Our handcrafted earrings are fragile - Please handle with care and keep them flat in its jewellery pouch when not in use. All charms and findings on our earrings are plated brass unless stated otherwise. To avoid tarnishing, please refrain from sleeping in them, getting them wet or immersing in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool). Do not expose pieces to chemicals such as perfume, body oils, hand sanitizer, household chemicals and hairspray as this will cause discolouration.
Glasses & Mask Chains
Our glasses chains and mask chains are made with a variety of materials including chain, cord, freshwater pearls and glass beads and should only be worn around the neck (rather than as bracelets or anklets) to avoid the cord becoming misshapen. Please refrain from sleeping with them on, getting them wet or immersing in water (e.g. shower, bath, ocean or swimming pool) as they can lose their shape and/or tarnish. Do not expose them to chemicals such as perfume, body/suntan oils, hand sanitizer, household chemicals and hairspray as this will cause discolouration too. Protect them by avoiding excessive impact against hard surfaces so they don't get scratched or break.
