A rare Parisian glass bead from the late 19th century pressed with Convallaria Majalis Lilly of the Valley, a delicate flower with powerful hidden strength. Apothecaries once prepared tinctures and distillates for cardiac tonic, a gentler alternative to foxglove, to steady heartbeat and easy dropsy.
Fine jewelry is meant to be worn, and over time, 14k gold will develop a natural patina — minor surface wear that speaks to use, not diminishment. Keep your piece away from harsh chemicals, including chlorine, hairspray, and lotions, and store it in its box when not in use. To clean, use warm water with a soft-bristle brush, or our jewelry cleaner for additional shine— and note that pearls, turquoise, and Ethiopian opals should never be submerged or placed in an ultrasonic cleaner.
