Care Instructions
To keep your simple wire-wrapped opal necklace beautiful:
-
Store in the provided jewelry box or a soft cloth pouch when not wearing
-
Avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products
-
Silver plating may naturally wear over time with regular use, revealing warm copper underneath
-
Gently wipe with a soft cloth after wearing to remove oils

Remove before swimming, showering, or exercising
Note: Silver plating is a surface coating that may wear with use, especially on high-contact areas. This is normal and creates a unique patina. If you prefer a permanent silver finish, consider our Sterling Silver collection.
