CARE OF YOUR ORGANIC JEWELRY:

This fine natural jewelry is made out of organic, biodegradable materials and should be treated with care and respect.

(Our silver jewelry should be cared for like you would any other fine, handmade silver jewelry. keep in a dry place and clean occasionally with a polishing cloth or other jewelry cleaner.)

* Due to its organic nature, our jewelry should only be used in well healed piercings.*
 

Please care for your organic jewelry in the following way:

cleaning: clean occasionally, as needed, with a mild soap and water. dry thoroughly. condition your organic jewelry lightly with jojoba oil or another natural oil.
 do not soak in anything, do not boil or autoclave!

storage:  store in a cool, dry place. (such as your dresser top or jewelry box.)
do not leave for extended time in your car, sunny window, or other hot or sunny place.
do not leave your organic jewelry in a place where it may become wet. (such as on your bathroom sink or in the shower.)



other notes:
Our organic earrings with posts fit comfortably and normally in 98% of pierced ears.  If your ears are recently pierced or very sensitive, you may experience discomfort due to the size of the earring post. We recommend oiling the post slightly before you put them in your ear the first time with jojoba oil or a similar gentle and natural oil to help alleviate any discomfort.
(You can also choose to purchase a set of sterling silver posts that will fit in our organic earrings with a relatively narrow space at the top, such as styes beginning with er-01 or er-16, but we do not at this time carry silver posts that will fit styles  such as er-30. Inquire by email to find out if the silver posts will fit with the style you have chosen.)


GARUDA: a bird like animal of mythic strength, the guardian of the Water of Life, famous in South-East Asian philosophy. Garuda is a warrior, a protector, and a chariot of the gods. You can find Garuda in the sacred Buddhist and Hindu statuary in many temples, palaces and shines dedicated to the spirits of the earth and the ancestral heroes.
