Frequently Asked Questions

What is the metal construction?

It is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). The alloy provides the piece's shape and weight, while the plating forms the surface a wearer sees and touches. Rhodium is a bright white, highly reflective member of the platinum family and gives the surface a white finish.

What do the stone size and carat figure mean?

Each round aqua cubic zirconia accent stone measures 1 Mm. The 2.3 ct figure is the total stone weight across the stones rather than the weight of one stone. Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the same facet proportions used for fine gemstones.

How does the necklace fasten and what length does it offer?

The necklace has an 18-inch chain, a 2-inch extender, and a lobster clasp. An extender is a short length of chain at the clasp that lets the same necklace be worn at more than one length. The lobster clasp closes with a sprung lever and requires a little dexterity to fasten.

How to Care for Your Claudia 2.3ct Aqua CZ Rhodium Butterfly Drop Necklace

1. Clean the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the surface layer.
