How do I care for my Märta Larsson piece?

Despite the saying “Hard as a rock” Rocks have feelings too and aren’t indestructible – so care should always be taken with your one of a kind pieces. We advise the following simply to make sure your piece helps you look fabulous for many years to come.

No knocking. Not only will you damage the rocks feelings, but also probably permanently damage your piece. Crystal Pyrite and Chrysocolla need extra caution!

Chemicals. Chemicals are bad – especially when drinking them, pouring them on your skin, or if they come into contact with your Märta Larsson piece.

Please avoid at all time -as some chemicals may not just discolour the stones or metal, but if its acid could melt you. We told you, chemicals are bad.

Everyone needs a little TLC every now and again, and if your Märta Larsson piece needs a clean, then please use warm (not hot) water, possibly with mild plain soap. Please don’t use any chemical based formula – remember! Chemicals are bad.

Rocks can’t swim that well (no legs), so please remove when showering, at the beach, near chlorinated water.

Extreme temperatures, humidity, sunlight, excessive perfumes and creams? Keep away! Our pieces are like cool goths – they like to stay looking cool, in the cool.

 

How can I protect my jewellery?

If you can’t afford a personal security guard to follow you around 24-7, may we recommend the next best thing? Placing your pieces in a pouch, or within a soft lined box to stop them being scratched or tangled. Try and keep the pieces apart, so that they don’t rub together or tangle up.
