 A good portion of my pieces are made from recycled and reclaimed materials, and in sourcing those materials I have befriended a local gentleman who sells me scrap metal to rework into my pieces.   

Often while digging through his scrap piles, I find pieces that are mixed into the scrap lot, purchased for their metal weight, and in perfectly good, well-loved condition. I’m given the privilege of digging through the large lots and pulling out perfectly fine, once treasured pieces that I feel should be saved from being scrapped and melted down, deserving of a second chance at a new life! Most are vintage, some are handmade, and all are various sizes. I pull them out if they speak to me, take them home, clean and tighten them up! Most are one of a kind, and once they are gone, they’re gone. 

Wearing antique or vintage jewelry can be a unique and exquisite experience, but it is important to exercise caution and proper care to preserve the integrity of these pieces. Antique jewelry often carries historical and sentimental value, and its age may make it more delicate and susceptible to damage. Antique jewelry is typically more delicate than modern pieces. The metals, gemstones, and settings may be more prone to wear, fractures, or breakage. Handle these items with care to avoid accidental damage. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods with these pieces. Opt for mild, non-abrasive cleansers and a soft brush to gently clean dirt and debris. Store jewelry in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use soft pouches or lined jewelry boxes to prevent scratches and minimize exposure to air and moisture, which can contribute to deterioration. Remember, each antique piece is unique, and its care may vary. Wishing you many amazing adventures with you and your new adornment!
