Blue Apatite - Gold (Mini 4C)

All my jewelry comes with a 6-month warranty from purchase date. This includes damages to any hardware or stone. I DO NOT process returns however I do exchanges. This is because each piece is made to order. To initiate an exchange, please contact me at spiritualdrip.net@gmail.com with your order number and reason for exchange. Please note that all exchanged items must be in their original condition and packaging, and the customer is responsible for return shipping costs unless the item arrived damaged or defective.

Jewelry Care Guide

Your custom gold-filled pieces are designed to last for years with the right care. Unlike gold-plated jewelry, gold-filled items have a thick layer of solid 14k gold pressure-bonded to a high-quality brass core, making them resistant to tarnishing and safe for most sensitive skin.

To keep your jewelry shining like new, follow these simple steps:

1. Daily Wear & Chemicals

• Apply First: Always apply perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and makeup before putting on your jewelry. The chemicals in these products can cause buildup and dull the shine.

• The "Last On, First Off" Rule: Make your jewelry the last thing you put on in the morning and the first thing you take off at night.

2. Water & Sweat

• Shower Safe (Mostly): Gold-filled jewelry is generally water-resistant. However, frequent exposure to harsh soaps or chemically treated water (like hot tubs and chlorinated pools) can eventually affect the gold's luster.

• Salt Water: We recommend removing your pieces before swimming in the ocean, as salt can be abrasive over time.

3. Cleaning Your Pieces

• Gentle Buffing: Use a soft, lint-free cloth (like a microfiber cloth) to gently wipe away body oils or dust after wearing.

• Deep Clean: If your jewelry looks dull, soak it in a bowl of warm water with a drop of mild, additive-free dish soap for about 5–10 minutes. Use a very soft toothbrush to get into any custom details. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat completely dry before storing.

4. Storage

• Keep it Dry: Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place.

• Tangle-Free: To prevent scratching and tangling, store your custom pieces in their original packaging, a lined jewelry box, or individual airtight small bags.

Pro Tip: Sweat and natural body oils can vary in acidity. If you’ve had a particularly active day, a quick rinse in plain water and a dry pat will help preserve the gold’s finish!
