Care Instructions:

Wood Care: Preserve the beauty of the laburnum wood by occasionally applying a natural wood oil or beeswax. Keep the pendant away from prolonged exposure to water or harsh chemicals.
Pearl and Copper Care: Freshwater pearls are delicate and should be protected from harsh chemicals, perfumes, and excessive moisture. The copper wire may naturally develop a patina over time; gently polish it to restore its shine if desired.
Cord Maintenance: The durable waxed nylon cord can last for years if kept away from oils and perfumes that might wear down its finish.
Local Beauty, Local Care: We take pride in supporting local artisans, finishing each pendant with Brays Bees Cream Polish, sourced from nearby beekeepers. This touch not only enhances the wood’s natural beauty but also supports our local community.
