Frequently Asked Questions

What is the charm made from?

The charm is made from stainless steel finished with an 18 karat gold PVD coating, set with a round sodalite stone. The PVD process bonds the gold-toned finish closely to the steel base beneath it.

How big is the charm?

The charm measures 8.5 mm across, with a 5 mm sodalite stone set at its center.

How should the charm be cared for?

Keep the piece away from perfume, lotion, and chlorine, since these can wear down the gold PVD finish over time. Wipe it dry after wear and store it separately to help the plated surface keep its color.

Will the sodalite stone always look the same?

No, sodalite is a natural stone, so its color and pattern can vary from piece to piece. This variation is part of the stone itself rather than a flaw.
