Preservation Guide
Care
Atelier works are built to last, but longevity depends on handling. Use the guidance below to protect structure, surface integrity, and setting stability.
Care Essentials
If you are unsure, contact the atelier before attempting cleaning or adjustment.
Maintenance Rhythm
Simple habits protect structure. Perform these steps consistently.
Wipe gently with a clean, dry cloth. Remove surface oils and dust before storage.
Inspect closures and settings. Ensure no movement, loosening, or distortion is developing.
Condition leather lightly if needed (appropriate product only). For structural review, request atelier service.
Do not over-condition leather. Excess product can soften structure and change surface character.
Handling Standards
- Store in the provided pouch/box to prevent compression.
- Keep away from water, humidity, and steam.
- Put on after fragrance, hair products, and lotion are fully dry.
- Wipe metal/crystal surfaces gently with a dry microfiber cloth.
- Request atelier service if structural tension changes.
- Direct contact with perfume, alcohol, acetone, or cleaning solvents.
- Showering, swimming, or exposure to rain while wearing.
- Leaving in heat (car dashboards, radiators, sun exposure).
- Forcing closures or bending the structure beyond its designed curve.
- Attempting to re-glue or reset stones at home.
Atelier works are constructed with controlled tension. Improper bending or chemical exposure can permanently alter structure.
Leather
Keep leather dry and away from solvents. If damp, pat dry and allow to air-dry naturally away from heat. Do not accelerate drying with hair dryers or heaters.
Crystals & Hardware
Wipe gently with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cloths and chemical cleaners. If a setting feels loose, stop wearing and request service.
Water & Humidity
Avoid exposure to rain, steam, and humidity. Moisture can soften leather and alter structural tension over time.
Storage
Store in the provided pouch/box. Avoid compression. Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Service & Restoration
Atelier service is available for structural assessment, hardware tightening, and restoration. Contact the atelier with photos and your order reference.
Care protects structure. Structure protects rarity. If anything feels off, contact the atelier before attempting adjustment.
