designAUST Jewelry care info

* Crystals are delicate and can break if they come into contact with any hard surface.

* Wear necklaces high on chest to avoid banging into anything.

* Hold necklaces close to your body when bending down or reaching over to avoid contact with any hard surface.  

* Take care when dressing or undressing not to catch any crystal points on clothing.

* Keep jewelry dry and away from water. Take pieces off when bathing, swimming, washing hands or doing any intense physical activity.

* When wearing rings take care not to slam your hand down on any hard surfaces or pick up any heavy or rough items. 

    Damaged pieces vs. Broken stones

    * If a sculptural component of a piece breaks, cracks or chips, it may be able to be repaired on a case by case basis. 

    * It is rare for a stone to break, however, the stones are created by Mother Nature, and are fragile.  It is essential for the wearer to be very careful while handling their piece. There are no replacements or exchanges offered for jewelry with damaged stones.

    All sales are final.
