FAQ
- Jewelery & Materials
- Timeworn prongs and clasps can result in the loss of a stone or an entire piece of jewelry. Examine your jewelry regularly to make sure settings are snug and clasps and joinings are secure.
Jewelry storage can be very important. At the time of purchase, all Poison Apple NYC jewelry is wrapped in a protective box, case or tarnish-resistant bag or pouch. Between wearings, it is recommended that you place it back in its original case or another suitably lined box or pouch.
It is best to put jewelry on last when you are getting dressed, especially after hair styling products and perfumes/colognes have been applied. Gems and metals can tarnish much easier when sprayed with alcohols and other unfriendly chemicals. Storing your jewelry in sealed bags will slow the process of oxidation of gold and silver, and keeping them away from direct sunlight will ensure that gems retain their full brilliance and vivacity.
- Sterling Silver
- Poison Apple NYC only uses the finest .925 Sterling Silver. Sterling Silver may tarnish rapidly, especially when exposed to salt in the air and products containing alcohol such as perfumes/colognes and products containing sulfur, such as rubber bands and some papers. Poison Apple NYC recommends a silver polishing cloth to keep your silver looking its best.
- Oxidized Sterling Silver
- Each oxidized piece of Poison Apple NYC jewelry is made from the finest .925 Sterling Silver that has been oxidized by hand. Varying colour amongst these pieces is normal - Please embrace the difference in these pieces for its own unique character. Natural wear and some fading on oxidized sterling silver is normal. Please note that the oxidation is a coating that will slowly wear off of flat surfaces over time. The coating will, however, remain in crevices creating a beautiful contrast of color that accentuates the textured detail.
