Care
Glazed stoneware is hard-wearing but brittle. Beads chip if dropped on a hard floor, so take the piece off before swimming, bathing or sleeping.
Solid brass darkens with wear. That patina is part of the piece; a soft cloth or a light brass polish brings the shine back whenever you want it.
Store flat in the pouch it came in, away from other jewellery that could knock against the glaze.
