What is Gold fill?

Gold fill is is made with a layer of gold - pressure bonded to another metal. Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plating as filled literally has 100% more gold than gold plating. Gold filled is much more valuable and tarnish resistant. It will not flake or rub off, or turn colours.

Water Safe Jewels

Lunarsea designs are made for salty souls and can withstand use in water with due care. 

This said please always rinse your jewels in fresh water & pat dry. 

Prolonged exposure to water may dull all metals even the purest of golds. 

So moderation and maintenance are key.

Jewels just like clothing need to be cleaned from time to time.

Sterling Silver can be polished with a jewellery cloth.

Gold Fill with a soft toothbrush and water (I have personally used a little eco dish detergent for stubborn areas for example body oils darkening the clasp.) 

To ensure extra longevity the following is suggested:

• Although water friendly for extra longevity & low maintenance you can avoid water contact swimming pools/spa/saunas/ocean.  (Says she that always wear her jewels in the saltwater/shower, but I do remove for chlorine) 
• Sterling silver, Gold fill crystals & shells are delicate materials dropping/knocking/catching your jewels may cause breakage, this is not considered a fault.
• Prolonged direct sunlight may discolour or fade some crystals and shells
• Try to avoid direct contact with Moisturizers, Detergents, Perfume, Make-up etc (they will cause tarnish/oxidation, but should be removable with polishing cloth)
• Avoid High temperatures 
• Avoid Mild or harsh chemicals
• Avoid strenuous activity, where items could be damaged.
• Sterling Silver, Gold Fill & Stainless steel will tarnish & oxidise with wear & exposure.  Simply remove with reco
• mmended methods above.
• I also suggest storing your jewels in there boxes or with silica in airtight bags to avoid oxidisation when not in use.

Repairs

I use quality but delicate materials in my handmade pieces and do offer a 9 month manufacturing warranty from date of purchase.

This warranty covers manufacturing faults (but does not cover neglect or wear & tear especially given the delicate nature of some of the materials.)  Fine chains will snap under pressure.  

It will be at my discretion to replace or repair your damaged product with proof of purchase.

I offer one free mend repair for necklaces and one hoop replacement, in the lifetime (outside of warranty) of your treasure & any ongoing repairs will be at minimal cost, not retail priced.

To be truely sustainable is too repair and reuse.

If your repair is an old design and I no longer have the materials required to fix the item, I am happy to discuss a custom remake with you.

For items handmade by our fellow artisans (mostly rings, cuffs etc) we can not repair in-house. 

If out of warranty we suggest having the item repaired by a local jeweller.

In addition I will supply you with some store credit towards your next keepsake.
