As much as we love a good patina on statues and sculptures, on our jewelry, not so much.
In this guide we give you some quick and handy tips to maintain your jewelry pieces looking like they did the first day.
Bronze makes a lovely alternative to gold jewelry and allows you to elevate your look without paying precious-metal prices. For artisans, it is also easier to work with in the molding and shaping process as it’s a blend of copper and tin making it easier to bend and handle while still proving to be long lasting and durable.
Because it’s a mineral-like metal, it tends to rust and oxidate over time leaving a greenish stain on your skin and losing it’s shine.

Quick things to avoid
- Keeping them exposed to the air. Better to store them in jewelry/hermetic boxes or their original packaging.
- Wetting your pieces or keeping them in humid environments, like a bathroom.
- Keeping your pieces on when active, doing sports or exercising. Avoid contact with sweat as moisture can encourage oxidation of the bronze and stain the jewelry.
