  • Solid brass toggle ring
  • Length: Approx. 16.5" [42 cm]

I'm very fond of navy - I wear it often. Sometimes it needs gold accents, sometimes silver. A bit of playing around with silver and gold leaf solved the issue of which to pair it with - both!

The Do's

Handmade and hand knotted jewelry pieces are durable, but NOT indestructible. Be good to your jewelry and follow these tips to keep your items looking like new as long as possible:

  • Make jewelry the last thing to go on, after sunscreens, lotions and perfumes have been applied AND dried.
  • DO wear your jewelry with abandon, expressing your unique style, but remove it at the end of the day.
  • Clean stones by gently wiping with a slightly damp, soft, non-abrasive cloth or chamois.
  • Store jewelry in a dark, cool, and dry space.
  • Gemstones are delicate and can chip or shatter on impact with hard surfaces. Please take care when handling and storing.
The Don'ts
  • Don't wear jewelry in the shower, while swimming in the pool or ocean, sunbathing, or while working up a serious sweat. Exposure to water, salt, and chemicals will tarnish, discolor, or wear away fine metal plating and may discolor and weaken beading cord.
  • Sunscreen, lotions, perfumes, and hairspray may be good on you, but are bad on your jewelry. Avoid direct contact with fine metal plating and gemstone beads as they can become stained or discolored.
  • Don't use metal cleaners, dips, or polishing agents as these will damage fine metal plating.
  • Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause some natural gemstones to lose their color and fade, so avoid storing jewelry in direct sunlight.
