Frequently Asked Questions

Chains

If you would like a certain chain length other than what’s listed, please let us know. Chains can be crafted in sterling silver, copper, bronze, gunmetal, leather, satin rope or hand dyed silk.

Custom and personalized orders

Do you have an item that carries special meaning or holds a memory but it's just sitting on a shelf or in a drawer? We can create a custom necklace, bracelet, earrings or ring out of your item so you can carry it with you always. It can be made from any material; plastic to organic. We have crafted rings and earrings from stone, bones and even teeth. Necklaces can be crafted from shells, flowers, stones, you name it!

Care instructions

Pure copper changes color when exposed to air, elements, moisture and oils from your skin (think Statue of Liberty). This is called oxidation. Your skin may turn a green hue due to your own body chemistry. All copper pieces have sealed with Protectaclear to slow this process. Your item may require additional sealant if worn often to avoid oxidation (or if you love it like I do, let it go!) The more you wear a ring the shinier it becomes.

Most find it a favorable trait (greening) as copper has healing properties. From time to time you can use wax or nail polish to guard off oxidation. Polishing copper jewelry (including chain) is as easy as finding an acidic item (lemon juice, vinegar) in the kitchen or simply using a polishing cloth.

Wholesale availability

We wholesale many of our items to boutiques. Every item is one of a kind, however most items can be recreating with varying sizes, shapes and colors as no two stones are alike. Send us a convo for availability and for more information.

Cancellations

Cancellations are accepted until item is marked as shipped.

Ring sizing

Generally you would go up 1/4 size for rings 5-6mm (0.19”-0.25”) wide and 1/2 size for rings 7-8mm (0.27”-0.31”) wide. This is because a wide band allows more space under the band for the finger than narrow rings do. Add an allowance of 0.25 to 0.5 size for rings with wider styles.
Finger sizes are prone to change with temperature, humidity, exercise, what you have been eating, time of day, time of the month, pregnancy and other factors. Your right hand is usually 0.5 size larger, so if you are right handed and have a size 7 ring that fits the left hand it is reasonable to think that a 7.5 will fit the right hand, but again this varies depending on the person. If you’re interested in one of our rings & it isn’t your size send us a convo.

Where do we get our stones?

Some stones we have mined ourselves or have found ourselves. Other stones we have purchased from select sellers from gem & mineral shows. We also love to support other Rockhounds, we purchase stones they’ve collected. All items are ethically and sustainably sourced.
