How to care for copper so it lasts a lifetime.

Copper is alive in the way it wears. It patinas, it shifts, it remembers your skin.

Day one, week one

• Wear it. Copper darkens on contact with skin — that's the patina. Every piece develops a patina unique to you.
• If it leaves a faint green mark on your wrist in the first few days, it's the body's mineral reaction. Wash with soap and water. Normal.

To bring back the shine

Polish anytime:

• A small squeeze of lemon juice mixed with a pinch of salt. Rub, rinse, dry. 30 seconds.
• A dab of ketchup on a soft cloth (the acid is the active ingredient).
• A copper polish like Brasso.

Lifetime craftsmanship guarantee

Every piece is backed by a lifetime craftsmanship guarantee. If anything fails because of how I made it, I will repair or replace it personally, at no charge. Send me a photo, ship it back, I'll make it right.
