Brass

Durability and Versatility: Brass is renowned for its impressive durability and strength, making it an excellent material for crafting jewelry. This robust alloy, composed mainly of copper and zinc, is resilient against wear and tear, ensuring that your Mint & Lily jewelry retains its beauty over time.

Skin-Friendly: We understand the importance of comfortable wear, and brass is known for being skin-friendly for most people. While not hypoallergenic like 316L Stainless Steel, brass is often a suitable choice for those without specific metal allergies, allowing you to enjoy our jewelry with peace of mind.

Enhanced Durability: The application of 18k gold plating on brass jewelry is done with precision and care, ensuring a finish that is both beautiful and resilient. This layer not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also contributes to the longevity of the piece, maintaining its luster and resisting tarnishing over time.

 

Care and Maintenance

To maintain the beauty of your Mint & Lily jewelry and keep it looking its best, follow these care instructions:

  1. Store Properly: When not wearing your jewelry, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Consider using separate compartments or soft jewelry pouches to prevent scratching and tangling.

  2. Avoid Contact: Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals, perfumes, lotions, and abrasive materials. Chemicals can erode the metal or strip the gold plating, affecting its appearance.

  3. Regular Cleaning: Gently clean your jewelry after each wear with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils, sweat, and dirt. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap and warm water, and pat dry with a clean cloth.

  4. Polish as Needed: If your jewelry begins to lose its shine, you can gently polish it with a jewelry polishing cloth or a specialized gold-plating solution. Be sure to follow product instructions carefully.
