Bright, perky and elegant all at the same time. Carefully hand crafted.
Full disclosure: Another chrysocolla product from this source turned out to be not so genuine. It is my belief that these cabacons are a Fabulous Faux, albeit a very good one.
Nubium or surgical steel ear wires are available upon request, at an additional cost.

- Care instructions
Caring for unsealed copper
- This piece will oxidize naturally. Regular wear will keep the high points shiny, enhancing the texture of the weaves and designs.
- The natural ozidation process can be slowed by storing your wearable art in an enclosed environment such as a jewelry box or with the anti-tarnish strip in the zip bag included with your purchase.
- You may restore the shine by rubbing gently with a lint-free cloth or using a mild metal polish.
- We do not recommend using an ultrasonic cleaner with this piece. It could damage the stone and oxidation.
- Life can get in the crevices. Your wearable art may be cleaned by gently scrubbing with a toothbrush and dish soap (such as dawn or ivory.) Lay it out on a towel to dry. You may use a hairdryer to ensure no lingering moisture. Use caution as the copper can become hot.
- Avoid exposing it to acidic environments including water, detergents, lotions, hairspray and deodorants.
Sometimes We Don't Want To Go Green...
- I wear my copper jewelry next to the skin with out any skin reaction (and I am sensitive to oh so many things.)
- Should you experience any greenish tinge, following the above care instructions will usually remedy the occurance.
- There are some white papers out in cyber-land that correlate deficiencies in vitimin D and/or B12 with an oxidating reaction on skin, i.e. the greenish tinge. It's worth checking out if you experience the phenomenon.
