The Cadena Bracelet

Vintage: Natural metal shine with a contrasted appearance of antiqued silver gives it a classic feel.  For a natural, raw, and second hand vintage metal look.  This is a perfectly imperfect daily wear finish.

Polished:  High shine, high-end finish that makes a statement. Polished pieces are more "porous" making them more prone to tarnishing and more sensitive to scratching. Please take extra care with these: use a polishing cloth to clean and take off your pieces to avoid scratches when active.

Our pieces are created to either look rugged or clean.  Our Vintage Finished rugged pieces are better for everyday wear and our Polished clean pieces need to be handled with extra care.

We like to mix up our look and offer a wide variety by making our jewelry with different types of metals and finishes.  Sterling Silver, Gold, and Brass are our metals of choice.  All can act differently from exposure to different types of elements like the ones mentioned below.

You may notice over time that our pieces can change due to wear and tear and exposure from substances like chlorine, salt, sulfur (leather products), rubber, water and air.  So, if you want to keep the original beauty of our pieces, please take off your jewelry before use with any substances (especially for our high polished finish and our Gold plated items).  All of our plated pieces are subject to fading if not handled with care.  We are not held responsible for misuse of product. If you would like to avoid plated pieces entirely, we offer Solid Gold and Solid Silver options.

You should take certain precautions when it comes to how you handle your jewelry if you like the way it looks when new.  Proper care is an important part of keeping your jewelry looking its best: 

Do not wear your necklaces, rings, and bracelets when you’re cleaning or working with harsh chemicals; when you’re in the chlorinated pools/spas; or while you’re playing sports or doing any type of physical activity.  To ensure longevity, take off your jewelry as much as possible after use and do not toss your pieces all together in a pile. Store them separately so they’re not rubbing up against one another. Also, consider wrapping them in tissue paper or a soft cloth when you’re not wearing them. When you want to clean your jewelry, soak them in warm, soapy water and use a cloth or very soft brush to scrub away any gunk, dirt, or tarnish.

For Cuff bracelets, DO NOT BEND the metal of the cuff to take it on and off your wrist, the cuff can deform and will break (we are not liable if you break your cuff).  Instead, carefully and gently, size the cuff once to your wrist so it is able to be tightly rotated on and off without further bending.

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns at info@selvajewelry.com.
