Jewellery Care

Please treat your Phat Poly earrings with care as they are not bulletproof!!

As these items are handmade in nature, slight imperfections may be visible but every effort has been made to prevent this. 

Polymer clay is very durable and bendable but PLEASE DO NOT BEND your earrings no matter how many videos you see of it on TikTok & YouTube!! Polymer Clay is bendable but this weakens the product with each bend and I cannot take responsibility for this happening.

 

  To Care for your Jewellery:

- Please be gentle when removing the backing from your earrings. Pulling hard, twisting and other rough movement can cause the glue to weaken which may cause your earring post to come loose or fall off over time.  Should your earring post come loose, please contact me for instructions on how to repair them.

- Ensure you handle your pieces with care - they are delicate and like anything, if dropped, stepped on or otherwise mishandled it can result in scratches and breakage.  

- All jewellery can be cleaned softly with a clean cloth or unscented wipe.

- For lighter polymer clay colours e.g. white, you can use a tiny amount of nail varnish remover on a cotton bud - do not use too much or scrub too hard however as this will wear away the clay.

- Polymer clay is very durable but may break or scratch if bent or stored loose in your bag.

- Clean tarnished areas on Brass Components with a polishing cloth.

- Do not wear when in water or when sleeping.

- Avoid contact with creams/perfumes etc.

- Store your jewellery in the pouch/gift box provided and put them in a safe place when not worn.

- Keep them away from children and pets!! They may look really fun to play with but they are absolutely not for them.

 

Please also note I use surgical steel hoops and ear posts only! They are lead and nickel free and should not cause any skin reactions.
