Every piece of jewelry I create contains real elements from nature, preserved to be worn and loved for many years. I work with resin to encapsulate fragile plant material and create a clear, glass-like surface that highlights form, color and composition. Resin is a durable material, but it is not entirely static.

Over time, resin can change, especially when exposed to light. Depending on use, storage and construction, the resin may develop a yellow tone over the years. Some pieces remain virtually unchanged for a very long time, while others evolve more visibly.

Through years of experience creating resin jewelry, I have learned which plants and designs age best, and I create each piece with longevity in mind. Jewelry I created several years ago still retains strong color and definition, showing that these pieces can remain beautiful for many years.

Working with real plants means accepting that no two pieces will age in exactly the same way. Change, when it happens, is part of the material’s nature and the object’s life.

To preserve the beauty and durability of your new jewelry for as long as possible, please follow these care instructions:

Avoid direct sunlight - Prolonged exposure to the sun can cause the plants to fade and the resin to yellow over time. Store the jewelry in a dark, cool place when not in use.

Keep it dry - Avoid letting the jewelry come into contact with water, perfume, lotion or cleaning products, as these can affect both the clarity of the resin and the color of the plants. It is fine to quickly wash your hands while wearing the jewelry, but avoid exposing it to water for an extended period of time, such as when showering, bathing or washing dishes.

Handle with care - Resin is a strong yet delicate material. Protect your jewelry from hard knocks and scratches by storing it in a soft bag or box.

Cleaning - If the jewelry gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

That said, the care instructions are here to help, not create stress. Your jewelry is meant to be worn, loved and enjoyed for many years to come.
