Care
Every necklace comes with its own colour coordinated silk brocade
pouch, made by a Shanghai tailor. The pouch is large enough so that
the necklace is not stuffed into a bag and is protected. The necklaces
are strung on many strong bonded threads and each bead has been hand
drilled and sanded to ensure the longevity of the stringing. But
the necklace must be treated carefully. Stones are vulnerable as
are the threads.
Silver beads and clasps can be buffed up gently but firmly with a silver cloth. This brings the lustre back to life. Gold and pinchbeck, and vermeil can also be buffed up with a gold cloth.
Perfume and hairspray should be applied well before the necklace. To clean silk/polyester cord, put a small bit of fairy liquid on a sponge and dab clean, dab rinse and pat dry with a towel.
A selection of necklaces currently in stock are available for purchase from our online shop.
