Bronze Jewellery & Accessories Care

stannard-inc's Bronze Jewellery is made using White Bronze which is an alloy of Copper, Tin & Zinc. Each bronze piece is unique. It is first handmade in wax & then cast. It is then cleaned up (sanded & polished), and finally hand-coloured. Polish with steel wool (provided with order)

Bronze Accessories tarnish slower than silver but the chemicals in perfume and some hairsprays will speed up the process of tarnishing.

While bronze can get wet and should be washed intermittently in warm water to remove any dirt build up, avoid wearing your bronce jewellery in when swimming in chlorinated pools or salt water.

Polish occasionally and lightly with steel wool to increase the sheen.

Black bronze Jewelry

While stannard-inc does not design black bronze accessories currently, should you need to know how to care for black bronze, the process is similar to that of white bronzel. Over time the black color will wear away slightly to reveal the warm color of bronze underneath. A patina then forms on the surface as is normal with bronze. If you prefer the deep black colour, the bronze can be re-coloured black.
