PRODUCTION AND MATERIALS
Production
There is currently a 2-3 week lead time on all pieces. Perfection can't be rushed, so please bare this in mind when ordering.
If you need something at lightning speed, please email hello@charlieshires.com
One of a kind pieces are just that – one of a kind, so once they are gone, they are gone for good.
If you have any queries or questions before purchasing, Charlie is here for any and all questions.
Materials
Metals
Your jewellery is made up of different metal alloys, to enhance the durability of the piece.
None of the pieces I make contain Nickle (the metal that makes your skin turn green)
The silver and gold we use is 100% recycled metal.
This metal has gone through a refining process before being used again. This splits the metal alloys apart so they can be bought in their pure form so they can be alloyed again.
If you're interested in the metal composition of your piece or you have a metal allergy, please read the alloy breakdown below.
