Frequently asked questions.
What are your pieces made of?
Either Sterling Silver, or Bronze.
Humans have been crafting bronze jewellery since 3500 BC. It is an ancient and beautiful metal with a wonderful warmth, weight, and colour. The copper content in bronze is what allows it to develop a unique patina over time, ensuring no two amulets will ever look the same as they age.
Please note that metals with high copper content - such as bronze - can leave a temporary green mark on the skin. This is a normal, harmless reaction and is not indicative of an allergy, low-quality material, or manufacturing flaw.
Where does the lore come from?
All of the fables you’ll read here are unique, penned by The Curator. Each has special meaning on it’s own, but those with keen eyes and imaginations will notice that some characters don’t stay just within their own myth. The more amulets arrive, the more the legend grows, with each story weaving together into a complete world which we welcome you to be a part of.

How do I take care of my piece?
Jewellery is precious, and should be treated with care and kindness. These tips will help keep your amulet shining for many years:
A Chest for Treasure: When your amulet is not being worn, always return it to its pouch or box. This will protect it from scratching and other damage.
When at Rest: To prevent the chain from catching or snagging, it is wise to remove your amulet before sleeping.
The Power of Care: If your silver pieces begin to tarnish, you can restore their shine with a silver polishing cloth or silver dip. For bronze, remember that the patina is part of your piece’s unique character!
Avoid the Mundane: Keep your amulet away from chemicals that may damage the metal. This includes fragrances, chlorine from pools, and harsh cosmetics.
