Our jewelry is composed of sterling silver, brass, bronze, and gold-plated silver, brass, or bronze, or any combination of these metals. Other materials which appear from time to time include leather, silk or cotton cording, semi-precious stones, pearls, crystals, and resin. All Waxing Poetic pieces are made of the best formulas and materials available.

Waxing Poetic’s signature finish is an artisanal antiqued look with oxidization; most of the pieces are not designed to be high polish.

Tarnish is not a sign of poor metal quality or a product defect; it is a result of exposure to elements. Metals naturally oxidize over time and develop a normal patina from wear, which is not a product defect. Texture holds more oxidization and will require additional maintenance. Examples are items with heavy engraving like Custom Collection, or textured product like the Twisted Link Chains. Never use chemical dips to clean your Waxing Poetic Jewelry.

WSometimes the chemical makeup of skin oils combined with lotions may also contribute to tarnishing, so apply fragrance and hair spray prior to putting on jewelry. Regular polishing with a polishing cloth along with proper storage will help maintain the finish and reduce the natural buildup of tarnish on metals. Never use chemical dips. We recommend using our Waxing Poetic GentleJewelry Cleaner, which is safe to use on all our jewelry items.

View our complete Jewelry Care Guide here.

We recommend that you do not wear your jewelry in the shower, hot tub, sauna, ocean, or swimming pool, as moisture accelerates the tarnishing of metal and chemicals can damage metals and stones.

We believe that keeping our business practices aligned with love, sharing, gratitude, fairness, and compassion. These are brand fundamentals, and essential components of our creative process, our market practices, our approach to manufacturing, our relationships with customers and overall being in the world. To that end, Waxing Poetic seeks to engage in ethical, sustainable, and environmentally compassionate business and manufacturing practices whenever and however possible.
