Care

All FRNGE pieces are exclusively made with untreated metals so that repolishing and care can be maintained entirely by the customer, making them an investment to last a lifetime (opposed to treated/plated metals that cannot be polished). That being said, untreated metals do have a tendency to tarnish over time. Humidity and frequent handling play a key role in speeding up the process, as well as one's individual skin pH balance, so proper care is key.

 

Brass and sterling pieces will naturally tarnish and patina to yield a unique + aged look. If you'd like to keep your piece bright and shiny, the best way is to buff with a Sunshine polishing cloth, as they have polishing compound embedded in them. Additional daily care ideally would include keeping your piece out of water and storing in a dry area, preferably in an airtight bag. Some greening on the skin may occur with brass pieces- this is natural and will wash off or fade.
