Crescent Charm Hoop Earrings

These crescent hooped earrings are more than just accessories; they're a testament to craftsmanship and sustainability. Made from highly polished, hand-cast recycled brass, each pair tells a story of conscious creation. Crafted in Kenya by the skilled hands of Anton and Benta, a husband and wife team, these earrings are a fusion of tradition and modernity. Their elegant design adds a touch of celestial charm to any ensemble, and they can be paired beautifully with the crescent moon ring and necklace for a coordinated look that reflects both style and ethical values.

Caring for recycled brass jewelry is relatively simple and can help maintain its appearance and integrity over time:

1. Avoid moisture: Remove brass jewelry before swimming, showering, or participating in activities where it might be exposed to moisture for extended periods. Moisture can cause tarnishing and discoloration over time.

2. Keep it dry: After wearing your brass jewelry, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth to remove any oils, sweat, or dirt. This helps prevent tarnishing and keeps the piece looking its best.

3. Avoid harsh chemicals: Keep your brass jewelry away from harsh chemicals such as perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and household cleaning products. These substances can accelerate tarnishing and may damage the metal.

4. Store properly: Store your brass jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider storing it in a jewelry box or pouch to prevent scratching and exposure to air.

5. Occasional cleaning: If your brass jewelry begins to tarnish or lose its luster, you can clean it gently with a soft cloth and a mild brass cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or brushes, as they can scratch the surface of the metal.

6. Patina: Over time, brass develops a natural patina, which adds character and depth to the piece. If you prefer the bright, polished look, you can use a brass polish to restore its shine. However, embracing the patina can also enhance the beauty of the jewelry.
