Ceramic
beads are resilient yet delicate and should not be dropped on hard surfaces
which could cause cracks, chips, or breakage to occur.
They should
be handled like precious jewels...
When
not being worn, each necklace should be stored individually in a
safe soft box, included with each purchase, where they
won’t
rub against each other. The necklaces
are waterproof and can be cleaned using a delicate soap. Being
careful not to stretch out the knots,
wash between your hands, and lay out to dry.
If
the shape of the knots changes (Butterfly Pan Chang can sometimes
turn up) then the necklace should be placed on a flat surface
and given a short spray of hairspray, lay a towel over it, and
put some
weight
on the necklace
to press the sides down into place. In some cases,
the necklaces can be returned and restrung with a more stable
cord.
ANY necklace with a problem can be returned and repaired, as
these necklaces should last for centuries.
