Frequently asked questions

What type of metal is your jewelry made from?
All of my pieces are made from Sterling Silver, which is 92.5% pure silver. The other 7.5% is copper which is added to strengthen the metal.
Where do you get your gemstones from?
I source gemstones from reliable, reputable and responsible suppliers in Maine and other parts of the US who are AGTA (American Gem Trade Association) members.
How do I take the best care of my jewelry?
Sterling Silver naturally oxidizes over time, so if you find your piece looking dull and tarnished, fear not! I recommend using a cloth suitable for cleaning silver jewelry. If your piece has any kind of stone in it, do NOT use a liquid cleaning solution. These can alter the integrity of some stones.
Other helpful tips:
• Avoid swimming or taking showers with your jewelry on.
• Put your jewelry on after you have applied hand sanitizer, lotions or perfumes.
• Remove your jewelry before going to bed.
How do I find my ring size?
I recommend visiting your local jeweler so you have an accurate measurement before purchasing a ring. You can also find adjustable ring sizers online to keep on hand for future times.
At this time I do not offer resizing.
Do you offer local pick up?
Sure thing! If you are local to the Portland area, or you're just in town, reach out to me once you've placed your order and we can set that up. If you already paid for shipping with your order, I can refund that for you on my end.
Why Priority Shipping?
I use USPS Priority Mail for many of my items because I want to do everything I can to ensure your piece gets to you safely. Each piece is made one of a kind, so that means it is irreplaceable, to you and to me. Once your piece ships, you will receive a confirmation email with tracking to keep tabs on your order.
Do you accept returns or exchanges?
If you find that you are not 100% happy with your purchase or the fit isn't right, please reach out to me. I'm happy to work with you to find a piece that you absolutely love!
If your piece is custom sizing, I do not offer returns on those items.
