All pieces of my jewelry are 925 sterling silver, unless otherwise noted in the listing. Sterling is a particular grade of silver; it is an alloy typically made up of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals (typically copper).

Yes - all sterling silver will oxidize (tarnish) over time unless is has been specially treated. Oxidization will occur if an item remains in a package or is untouched for a lengthy amount of time. Oxidization is a natural chemical reaction and is normal for sterling silver. To slow the oxidization process down, store your jewelry in a small ziplock style bag with anti-tarnish trips. Wear it often. Do not wear your jewelry while cleaning, swimming or taking a shower as chemicals such as ammonia, bleach and chlorine in water can cause tarnish to occur faster. Air, humidity, moisture, perfume and hairspray can also cause a piece to tarnish, among other things.

Handstamping is done by moving metal using a hammer and metal stamp. Engraving is typically done by shaving metal away from a piece. My jewelry is handstamped, which means that there will be slight variations in depth of letter and spacing, which is perfectly normal. This only adds to the beauty of a handmade item and makes each piece unique and unusual. As metal stamping moves metal (instead of shaving it away), there may be a slight impression on the reverse side of the item.
