Jewelry MAINTENANCE
PRODUCT QUALITY
All jewelry is made with .925 sterling silver or fine silver & is sourced through reputable jewelry suppliers.
Turquoise and other stones are sourced through United States vendors.
Most stones, especially turquoise, can be fragile. Therefore, if dropped it has a chance of cracking. GWBJ will not be responsible for cracked stones.
Maintenance
Turquoise is a very porous stone. Avoid taking showers, bathing, swimming and washing your hands with your jewelry to extend the life and vibrancy of it.
Keep away from high heat and chemicals such as oils, perfumes, sunscreen, makeup and household cleaners.
Clean your turquoise in warm, sudsy water and dry it immediately with a soft cloth.
Sizing
Most rings can be sized up by about 1 size (ex: a size 7 ring could become a size 8). If this is something you would like to inquire about, send an e-mail with the name of the ring and the size you would like and I will let you know if it can be done.
I would recommend visiting your local jeweler to get you fingers measured. If you would like to measure your size at home, follow these steps:
You will need
Ruler
Thin strip of paper or string
Cut a thin strip of paper or string
Wrap it around your finger. Make sure it is below the joint of your finger and close to your knuckle.
Mark the spot where the paper or string meets and measure the distance with your ruler.
Use the following chart to determine your ring size. Rings also come in half sizes, the measurements of which, of course, will fall somewhere in between the whole sizes.
