Jewelry Disclaimer
At Pretty Little Trinkets Sydney, we take pride in using high-quality metals to create unique and beautiful pieces. Here’s an overview of the materials you’ll find in our jewelry:
Jewelry Material
Materials
- Brass & Bronze : These rich metals lend a vintage-inspired warmth and character to our pieces, creating timeless charm. Brass naturally develops a beautiful patina over time, adding to its unique vintage appeal. This natural aging process is part of what makes each piece special.
- Gold-Plated : A delicate layer of gold applied over base metals, offering a beautiful finish at a more affordable price point than solid gold.
- Copper : This versatile, reddish-brown metal has been used in jewelry for centuries. While durable, copper may develop a natural patina (verdigris) over time, adding charm and character. This process can be polished if you prefer to maintain its original shine.
- Nickel-Free Pewter: This specially formulated pewter is free from nickel, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or nickel allergies.
Important Note
Pretty Little Trinkets Sydney does not sell solid gold jewelry. All of our pieces are crafted with plated metals, which may wear down over time, especially with regular use. We are not responsible for any wear or tear of gold plating from normal use.
CARE GUIDE
Jewelry Care Tips
Keep your Pretty Little Trinkets sparkling for years to come with a little love and care.
Wear with Love
Jewelry is best put on last and taken off first. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and hairsprays to preserve its delicate finish.
STORE WITH CARE
Store your jewelry in a soft pouch or box to prevent tangles and scratches. Our beautiful branded box and pouch provide the perfect storage to keep your pieces safe. Keeping them in a cool, dry place will help preserve their shine and charm for years to come.
GENTLE CLEANSING
To restore their glow, use the polishing cloth provided to gently buff your jewelry. For a deeper clean, softly polish with a dry, lint-free cloth or use mild soap and water, then pat dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners, as they may damage delicate details.
PROTECT FROM THE ELEMENTS
Keep your jewelry away from excessive moisture, heat, and prolonged sunlight. Remove before bathing, swimming, or strenuous activities to preserve its beauty.
EMBRACE THE PATINA
Over time, some metals may develop a soft, antique-like patina, adding to their charm. If you prefer a brighter finish, a gentle polishing cloth will restore their original luster.
With a little love and care, your jewelry will remain a treasured keepsake, ready to be passed down through generations, carrying its story and yours forever.
