Bronze is a beautiful metal that closely resembles gold without the hefty price tag.
Bronze jewellery will naturally oxidise and darken over time.
As bronze is a copper based alloy, for some people (depending on skin acidity) when wearing jewellery close to their skin, like rings, the patina may rub off onto your skin leaving a green mark which is harmless and temporary.

Regularly wash your bronze jewellery with a soft toothbrush and soapy warm water and dry thoroughly afterwards. You can gently use a polishing cloth for extra shine. The more often you do this the easier it is to maintain that golden sparkle. Please be mindful of your jewellery hardware (earring wires, necklaces etc) especially if they are gold-plated or gold-filled and remove and clean separately if possible, otherwise clean very gently to avoid damage.

We have gold-plated hoops and necklace chains as an option to complement your jewellery, which has a hard, thick layer of 23 karat gold on .925 sterling silver. Gold-plating will slowly wear over time, but with good care can last for years to come. Rings and bracelets tend to wear faster than earrings and necklaces, and will reveal the silver beneath where it has worn away, which can always be re-plated when the time comes. Gently clean your gold-plated jewellery with warm water and soap to clean it without damaging it.

We have gold-filled earring wires as an option for those who are more sensitive to stainless steel earring wires or prefer the look. Gold-filled is a very, very thick layer of gold that’s much more durable than gold plating. We still recommend following the same care steps as our gold-plated pieces.
