Made with lightweight, but sturdy 1.1mm thick recycled sterling silver, I do all the filing and sanding before adding the twists to these, and then after hallmarking they went off to Elliot-Fitzpatrick for gold plating
A is yellow gold plated and sized 21.5cm
B is rose gold plated and sized 22.5cm
Listing is for one bangle. If you'd like a different size, please message me for timescales.
Gold Plated Seriously Twisted - sterling silver wave bangle
The sterling I use is supplied by a UK manufacturer as fully recycled with a minimum fineness of 92.5% silver; the remaining element of the alloy being copper.
Copper items are 100% copper
Within my making process I use food grade citric acid, vegan polishes, Liver of Sulphur, food grade Sodium Bicarbonate, Renaissance Wax finally cleaning each item with tap water and ‘Simple’ branded face soap.
Each piece I make will stand up to regular wear, but, as with all jewellery, please keep it away from children, don’t eat it, remove it before washing, using chemicals, applying perfume etc.
Apply body lotion and perfume a few minutes before putting on your jewellery to help slow down tarnish.
The gemstones I use have been sold to me by reputable UK dealers as untreated (unless stated specifically in the listing). They are a natural, organic creation from the earth and each one will be slightly different.
It's law in the UK, that precious metals for sale, heavier than 7.78grams (silver) / 1gram (gold) must be formally assayed (ie tested, verified & hallmarked)

Sterling Silver will eventually oxidise or tarnish. It's a natural process that can be slowed down by regular wear and by keeping unworn items away from the atmosphere. If you leave your jewellery out on display, this oxidisation will be faster. You can polish up your items, with a soft cloth, some silver polish, or a buffing cloth such as Town Talk, which is readily available from any high street jewellers in the UK
Fine silver is 99.9% silver, and because of this the tarnish rate is much, much slower. Again, a buff should do the job for polishing it back up. If I have patinated your silver already, be gentle when buffing!

The sterling silver used in these items was sold to me by my bullion dealer as certified recycled.

I select the stones that I think go together best for each project, hence my comments that each item is individual.Returns - standard UK distance selling rules apply, which is for a return and refund (excluding delivery) of items that are unsuitable within 14 days, or of course if they arrive damaged. Exclusions from this standard legislation are for bespoke pieces and for items of a 'personal nature' which means items for a piercing.
So, in summary - Can I return my piece if I don't like it, or it doesn't fit?
I'm happy to have you return your item, if you do so promptly, with it's original packaging, and it's unworn in the original condition. However unless it was faulty, I can't absorb the postage - if you are returning an item that had postage included within it, for a reason other than it being faulty, there will be a restocking fee of £5 representative of an element of the postage and packing costs. If you are returning any of my other items, I will refund you for the jewellery only, not the postage paid. Please contact me about this.
If you place an order, I aim to have it in the post within 4 business days, unless it's made to order, in which case the current lead in times are listed within the item description - usually within a week.
Delivery - I use Royal Mail, and charge the cost of the post for an item; Currently I have 3 bands of postage pricing; for items below £20 in value,; for items between £20 and £50 and for items between £50 and £250. Items over £25 are inclusive of Next Day Tracked (UK) If you buy multiple items, the total value will dictate the postage cost. This is so that they are insured against loss or damage in transit.
Everything fits in a large letter box, so it will fit securely through your letter box.
