About Our Southwestern Jewelry: Our Native American jewelry is described as such; if we say it is Navajo- or Zuni-made, it made by a Navajo or Zuni artist. Our other Southwestern-style jewelry is made by non-Indian jewelers in sterling silver and hand-cut stones. These jewelers use genuine stones such as turquoise and mother of pearl; they may also use man-made stones such silicon opal and block spiny oyster shell. A major share of the value of these masterfully created items lies in the skill of the artist and the beauty of the artwork.
JEWELRY CARE: We recommend that you rinse your silver and silver-plated jewelry (without crystal or rhinestones) with clear water after each wearing. After rinsing, gently dry with a clean, soft cotton cloth or paper towel.
For cleaning and polishing sterling silver, we recommend Goddard's Mr. Metal tarnish remover for all metals. It can probably be found at your local supermarket, or you can order it on-line from Goddard's website (see our Links page). Or, we also recommend either Wright’s Silver Cream or Novus #2 Fine Scratch Remover. Novus is made for plastics, but we find it ideal for polishing metals and the surfaces of non-crystalline cabochon stones such as turquoise and malachite.
Novus #1 Plastic Clean and Shine is great for a final touch-up on metals and stones to give them a beautiful shine. Novus can be purchased on the internet if it is not available locally.
For removing tarnish and cleaner from crevices, we recommend using a small soft-bristled battery-operated toothbrush; light pressure is recommended. Such a toothbrush, used with Wright’s or Novus, can also restore a gleaming finish to silver when other methods fail.
Inlay bracelets cannot be adjusted for size.
