Product Care

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 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 and fabric products:

Charms, Chains & Findings 
All charms, chains and findings 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 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 whilst wearing them, 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 - 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 beads and cause them to break.

Necklaces
Our various collections of chokers and necklaces including chain, cord and beaded pieces should only be worn as necklaces (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 will discolour. 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. 

The beads we use on our handmade beaded chokers and necklaces are colour coated. 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 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 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.  

PLEASE NOTE: All our product ranges have been designed for use by adults only. No items are toys and should be kept away from unsupervised children as they can choke on small pieces.
