Crafted by hand in our Portland, Oregon production studio.
Bronze and sterling silver can tarnish over time. Both can be brought back to their original luster with a polishing cloth.
Please avoid cleaning the fibers of the Animo necklace with a polishing cloth. To revitalize the fringes, a fine tooth comb with warm water (mild soap optional) can do the trick! This can also help reshape the fibers if they get unruly. Once damp, reshape the fibers and lay flat to dry. Store the Animo necklace mindfully, by hanging or laying flat, to keep the fibers in shape.
We recommend removing the jewelry when it makes most sense– e.g. don't do hardcore outdoor sports with your pieces on, don't wear them in a hot tub or submerged in water for a long period of time, put jewelry on after putting products in hair, etc. and you should be good to go!
