Please contact me if you have any problems with your order.
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional information (for personalization, for example), if you contact me directly.
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
- as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
- if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
- as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest toimprove my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
- Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
- Business transfers. If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
- Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.
I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for 4 years.
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:
- Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
- Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
- Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
- Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.

I get most of my supplies from the US so it's honestly just easier for me to list in US prices rather than converting.
Yes, it probably will. How much is dependent on the wearer- for people who believe in copper's healing properties leave it bare, there's no harm to you and it washes off easily- if it does bother you try clear nail polish on the inside of the band or let me know at checkout that you'd like it sealed- keep in mind this is temporary and how long it lasts will depend on the wearer's body chemistry- I also advise that you take off your jewelry while in the shower, doing dishes etc.
If you love the style but don't want to deal with the greening, most of my rings are also available in solid silver- copper free!
That depends on you, there's a lot of factors it depends on. Some people have high acid ph levels and the plating will wear down more quickly- applying lotion and washing your hands with your rings on, using chemicals and swimming will all affect how long your plating will last. For some people it will last only a short time while with others the plating will last much longer. You can use a jewelry grade product like protectaclear to get the most out of your plating or you can have the finish redone when the gold wears off.
I get a lot of requests for pictures, so many that I've made the decision to stop sending them unless a purchase has been made.
I appreciate your understanding!
Absolutely and I know shipping is expensive so if you want to switch your size I'll split it with you- just pay the shipping to get it to me and then I'll pay to send you the correct size.
***the exception to this are birthstone rings- more on that below***
Custom birthstone rings are made to order just for you and are a custom item- very occasionally someone asks if they can return a ring because of a sizing issue or they didn't realize that copper turns your skin green however I cannot accept returns or exchanges on these because I can't resell them. It's important that you order the correct ring size.
When purchasing with a shipping upgrade please understand that this applies to mail class and has no effect on my processing time.
*If I have your order in stock then of course it will ship much sooner*
I'm sorry but I cannot be held responsible for packages marked as delivered but not received.
When I say solid silver I mean precisely that, they are done in pure silver and no copper is used at all.
I use a patina to give all my copper pieces an aged look, it will start to fade though the more it's worn. To get that finish back use liver of sulphur and finish with some steel wool.
(only do the metal being careful with the stones)
