Care
Sterling silver naturally patinas with wear. Polish with a soft cloth to restore shine, or let the oxidation deepen for contrast. Abalone shell and fossilized shark tooth are organic materials; avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure.
Materials
Each Sun Salt Silver piece is handcrafted using sterling and fine silver with natural stones chosen for their character, color, and story.
I work primarily with turquoise, opal, gemstones, shark tooth fossils, and other stones that feel grounded and alive. No two stones are identical — natural variations are part of the beauty.
All jewelry is made by hand in my studio using traditional silversmithing techniques. The result is work that feels substantial, personal, and meant to be worn for years.
Care & Longevity
Sun Salt Silver jewelry is made to be worn and lived in. With a little care, your piece will keep its beauty for years.
Because many designs feature natural stones like turquoise, opal, shell, or fossilized materials, treat your jewelry gently.
A few simple guidelines:
• Remove before swimming, showering, or working with your hands
• Avoid lotions, perfumes, and cleaning products
• Store pieces separately to prevent scratching
• Gently polish silver with a soft cloth when needed
Natural stones can be sensitive to water and chemicals. Keeping your jewelry dry and stored safely will help preserve its color and finish.
