Jewelry Care

  • All Paloma Clay Designs jewelry is made with 18 K gold or rhodium plated surgical-grade stainless steel. It is nickel, lead, & cadmium free (hypoallergenic).

  • Everything is tarnish resistant, however, please do not wear your jewelry in water, or use harsh chemicals. Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight.

  • Because each piece of handcrafted jewellery is shaped by an artist rather than a factory machine, no two items are exactly alike. You may find that two pieces of handmade jewelry have a slight difference in color, shape, texture, or placement.

Custom Orders

Processing Time

  • Every piece is handmade, so please allow 7-10 business days for your order to be made and packed. This is processing time only — it does not include transit time once your package ships.

  • During busy periods (holidays or high order volume), please allow a few extra days for processing. Any delays will be noted on the site or communicated directly.
