Care for and enhance your natural jewelry
What exactly is a natural jewel?
A natural jewel is a piece of jewelry whose main material comes directly from nature.
It can be made of seeds, pits, or plant fibers, manually crafted by artisans, with respect for the material and its origin.
These jewels retain the natural appearance of their elements, which makes them unique and authentic.

DIY: how to care for your natural jewels
Care of seed and pit jewelry
Seed and pit jewelry requires simple and regular maintenance.
The seeds and pits used for creating the jewelry are naturally prepared before their transformation: they are dried, sometimes boiled, then pierced to allow their use in jewelry making.
This process prevents any germination and limits risks related to humidity.
In the Amazon, where a large part of the raw materials used for these jewels comes from, the climate is naturally very humid.
However, these jewels are made, worn, and preserved there for many years without alteration.
In a drier climate like that of France, conditions are therefore even more favorable for their good preservation.
A natural seed jewel can thus be preserved for many years, provided it is regularly maintained, with simple actions that respect the material.
