The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!)
Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.
Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available here) Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.
About Rose Quartz:
Known as the stone of love, this pretty pink member of the quartz family is not only one of the most durable substances on earth, but also IN the earth’s crust too! Beads dating back to 6 000 BC has been discovered, proving its hardiness.
As the name implies, this variety of quartz varies from a very light to a rich and rosy pink. Legend has it that Aphrodite, goddess of love, had a soft spot for the handsome Adonis. She therefore asked him not to go on a hunt, but her request was denied. Adonis was injured and when rushing to his death bed, Aphrodite pricked herself on a thorny bush, her blood intertwined with that of Adonis and coloured a quartz stone to rosy pink.
