Eija charms and bases are crafted from sterling silver with 1-micron 18K gold plating. To ensure their longevity and shine, follow these care tips:

Avoid Moisture and Chemicals
Keep your pieces dry and away from water, perfumes, lotions, and cleaning agents to enhance longevity of your Eija pieces.

Clean Gently
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe your jewelry. Avoid using liquid cleaners as they can strip the gold plating and rhodium finish.

Gentle Handling
Our hardware are designed to be dainty and intricate. Avoid bending, pulling, or excessive force that can weaken the links and clasps.

Eija hair claws are designed for both form and function, but they require gentle care to stay in pristine condition due to their hand-assembled nature.

Avoid Heat and Chemicals
Keep away from direct heat sources (e.g. hairdryers, saunas, prolonged exposure under the sun) and avoid contact with makeup, creams, lotions and perfume. These harsh chemicals may affect the finish of the hair claws and weaken the glue that holds the spring over time.

Keep It Dry
Exposure to water and humidity may weaken the material and glue over time. Refrain from exposing your clip to chlorine and saltwater as well.

Wipe dry if it gets wet.

Gentle Handling
Avoid forcing the hair claw on hair that is thicker than what the design is meant for. Forcing the hair claw wide open can weaken the hinge or cause breakage.

Store Safely
Place in soft pouch or a designated spot to prevent scratches or pressure damage against other objects.
