Caring for your jewelry:

 

All Kali Jewelery pieces are designed by Maria Catarina Fernandes

The metals used are 925 silver - the most common legal silver alloy, and brass.

Silver naturally has a tendency over time and I use it to darken. If you want to maintain your parts you can use a soft brush, detergent or toothpaste, wash with water and dry well, or a silver cleaner from the market. The brass, although it takes a layer of varnish to maintain the finish, over time it can darken due to wear, then you can clean it with scotch brite already worn or a silver cleaner from the market.

The bluish patina on the brass can also change due to wear and tear and the gold of the brass begins to appear, if this happens and you are not satisfied, in the workshop we will do the patina process again (it takes about a week).

If the result is not the desired one, contact the studio by email and we will do the maintenance of your jewelry free of charge.
