ABOUT MY JEWELRY
​
All of my jewelry is made by hand. This means that you may find imperfections in the craftsmanship. In my opinion, that is what makes these pieces special - there is a craft and an art to it rather than something machine-made. Basically, I am human, not a machine so if you seek perfection, then you may want to look elsewhere for your jewelry needs and wants. Thank you for your understanding.
​
ABOUT NICKEL: I mainly work with silver-plated copper wires and nickel-free metal beads as much as possible, however, certain materials are not available here that are nickel-free or the manufacturer is not clear whether or not certain metal elements are or not. I make notes in all descriptions if I think nickel is contained in the pieces. If this concerns you and you are interested in something, there is a possibility I can make a version completely nickel-free. Just contact me to discuss!
​
ABOUT NATURAL STONES: I have begun to work with several suppliers, including SilverGemSupply for most of my natural stones in getting the best possible prices in order to keep the cost of my finished piece low for you. If there is a stone that you love and would like me to create one of my pieces using it, I will take certain commissions. Contact me!
CARE AND CLEANING: My handcrafted items contain small parts and require specific care. They are not recommended for children under the age of 13.
​
It is recommended not to shower, sleep, exercise, or expose your ATB Créations jewelry to chemicals (such as chlorine found in hot tubs and swimming pools).
Avoid intense or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight as some gemstones are sensitive to the sun.
​
All metal tarnishes. That is the nature of it. Please only use a soft cloth, such as the ones you would use in cleaning your glasses to polish your jewelry and carefully as some of the wire is very soft and bendable. For some of my pendants, especially, it may be impossible to get the metal to shine again over time. Some stones have inherent flaws and defects in them due to either their nature or occurred in the cutting process.
