5 out of 5 starsI got these for my partner and I because during the summer I will be going to my hometown in Canada and he stays where we live in America. It’s our first time away from eachother since we met, and It will be hard. Super cute way to remember that our hearts are forever together despite the length away.

5 out of 5 starsIt makes the perfect gift for the person I am gifting. He will appreciate both the quality and the unique appropriateness of it. We live far apart and stay in touch by phone. We have not seen each other in person for many years but are very close. So this gift was perfect. Well made, stylish, classy. Just what I wanted. Arrived on time in a lovely gift bag. It will be sent for his birthday in May. He will love it as much as I love being able to give it.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Hand stamped, Laser Marked, and Laser Engraved Products?
Hand stamped items are all made, by hand, letter for letter. A steel stamp is taken and then hammered into the metal to create a deep indentation. You can see/feel the indentation made, and it sometimes will not be completely uniform as a machine engraved item will be.
Laser marked items are kind of imagine being printed or burned into metal, it leaves an indentation, but not too deep. You can see/feel the image, and feel a very slight indentation, but the image also feels rough and gritty and almost raised to the touch.
Laser engraved items are when a laser removes enough material from an piece of metal that it leaves a deep impression. You can feel the indentations, and the lines are clean and crisp.
Care instructions
To ensure your handstamped Aluminum/Copper/Brass jewelry keeps looking its finest, please remove before showering, swimming, or other prolonged exposure to water.
Please be careful not to get hand sanitizer, or other products that include alcohol on your stamped jewelry, as it will remove the oxidation.
Copper and Brass tarnish over time due to skin oils and other environmental factors. Aluminum and Stainless steel do not.
Never use jewelry cleaning dips or liquids as these can remove the oxidization (blackening) in the characters in your jewelry.
Stainless steel laser engraved Jewelry is safe to wear in water and will not fade or tarnish.
Will you ship internationally?
At this time the only international destination we ship to is Canada. Shipping times are too unpredictable and unreliable to ship to other destinations at this time.
