Jewellery Odyssey:

Once upon a time, in 1976, the tale of Trollbeads began with a family of silversmiths and goldsmiths in Denmark. Where the original concept of “beads on bracelets” was created. Over the next forty-five years, Trollbeads have continued to develop and expand their collection, to silver, gold and handmade glass beads. Inspired by stories of “mythology, astrology, fairy tales, fauna, spirituality and cultural diversity”.

Jewellery Care Precautions:

Avoid direct contact with: perfume, lotions, skincare, hairspray / other chemicals. Remove, your jewellery: when showering, swimming (as both chlorine and saltwater will react with metals), washing your hands / using hand sanitisers, before going to bed or when participating in physical activities (going to the gym, exercising, gardening, housework etc….).

Beware, metals may tarnish over time due to oxygen contact and natural body oils. Prevent items from being exposed to moisture and direct sunlight, for long periods. Store jewellery in a dry place away from humidity, in a pouch/jewellery box and keep each piece separated from each other. Care, for your jewellery by cleaning with a soft dry cloth.

Yellow Gold:

Gold as an element, in its purest form will not tarnish, but gold used in jewellery has been alloyed with other metals, to increase durability. These metals have properties that when in contact with oxygen, chemicals, oils or other substances - will result in a surface tarnish or damage and corrosion. Even the pH level of you skin and the natural oils it produces, can tarnish your gold jewellery.

To prevent your gold jewellery from tarnishing or even disintegrating, avoid exposure to household chemicals, bleaches, toothpaste, baking soda and other cleaning abrasives. Wearing jewellery in places where perfumes, hairsprays, body lotions have been applied on your body, will increase tarnishing. Wear your jewellery after the products have been applied. To clean your gold jewellery, use a mild soap with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. For professional cleaning, our workshop can polish your jewellery back to life.

Rose Quartz, Crystalline Quartz:

Hardness: 7 | Toughness: Good | Stability: Good

Extreme Caution, Avoid: Light, Extreme Temperature Change (thermal shock), Jewellery Cleaners (steam cleaners).

Mild Caution, Avoid: Heat, Chemicals (acids, detergents, solvents, nail polish remover), Jewellery Cleaners (ultrasonic).

Gemmological Observation: Avoid leaving Rose Quartz in strong light, as colour may fade. Quartz is pyroelectric, this means that when the gemstone experiences a change in temperature (for instance heat from the sun/lighting) it causes a low-level electrical attraction to fine dust particles. Therefore, you may experience that any quartz-set jewellery may need frequently cleaning.

Extreme Caution, Avoid: Sudden Impact (pressure, knocks), Cosmetics (hair sprays, lotions, perfumes, make-up), Chemicals (acids, detergents), Heat, Jewellery Cleaners (ultrasonic, steam cleaners).

Gemmological Observation: Clean with mild soapy water and dry with a soft cloth. With the more porous, waxed or oiled feldspars never soak in detergents/solvents and keep away from household sprays. Feldspars are a soft gemstone, you will need to avoid abrasion with other jewellery or wearing during an activity that can cause damage.
