Handle, display and store your pieces with love and care. The stones in my jewelry are natural and may not withstand extreme exposure such as swimming, bathing, or strenuous activities. Variscite and Turquoise stones can absorb oils, lotions, and the color can be permanently altered. It is highly recommended to remove prior to bathing and other activities that may expose the stone to extreme conditions.

The art, pouches, and dream catchers are intended for light use, or to be hung on wall and not for play. Some items contain small beads and parts that are not suitable for small children. Do not hang wall art near a crib.

The stones I use are all hand mined in the USA. They are natural formations of the earth, and as such may have inclusions, pits, veins, and un-even texture. No two are alike, and each one is uniquely created by mother nature and time!

Most of the time when I dig Variscite out of the ground, the colors I first see are nothing like what they end up being once it dries out.

Let me explain, Variscite is a hydrated aluminum phosphate, and it contains a good amount of moisture in its natural habitat. Once removed that water content dissipates and the Variscite becomes more opaque, thus changing the color. For this reason, I like to hold on to some material longer than others to let it fully dry out.

This is why you never want to wear your Variscite jewelry in any water, and also make sure to keep it far away from lotions or any chemicals.
