Pearls are said to be the last item you put on and the first you take off. This is so they are not affected by such things as perfumes, hair products, moisturisers and make up. Wise words. Ironically for items existing in water, avoid wearing your pieces while swimming or showering. Not only can the pearls and teeth be affected by fresh, salt or chlorinated water, but so too can the threads and findings used. Don’t do it. Be careful when putting on and taking off – all clasps are secure but rough handling can affect this, causing stretch or breakage. Treat them carefully. All hand-strung or knotted jewels will need restringing eventually - this is to be expected.

Your natural shark teeth will patina gently over time as they absorb oils from your skin. This is to be expected and completely normal. It is advantageous as you are mingling yourself with the mighty animal, enhancing the power of the tooth and making it truly yours. Our exquisite resin replica teeth are almost indistinguishable from the real thing. Wear them with confidence.

Crocodile leather is also expected to patina as you wear it. This luxe leather is strong and completely individual with no two pieces being identical. Care for it in the way you would other leathers – don’t get it wet, buff with a soft cloth, wear it!!! You’ll love the tactile nature of this leather.
