How to size your wrist

Either measure the internal diameter of a bangle which you wear and is comfortable or, alternatively, tuck your thumb into your palm and wrap a measuring tape around your knuckles. This will give you the circumference measurement you need to size your wrist.

Necklace size guide

16" (Choker length)

Let's start with the choker length necklace - it's like a whisper of elegance around your neck, adding a touch of sophistication without being too flashy. All my necklaces are available in this length.

18" (Princess length)

Gracefully drapes just below the collarbone, offering a timeless and refined look that's suitable for any occasion. All my necklaces are available in this length.

20" (Matinee length)

The matinee length typically falls just above the bustline and is often used for more formal occasions or when you want to make a statement with your necklace. It's great for pairing with higher necklines. All my necklaces are available in this length.

30" (Opera length)

Long, luxurious, and oh-so glamorous. It makes a statement without saying a word, ideal for dark tops or dresses. Take a look at my Holkham Acorn necklace or my Star Anise necklace for this length.

Packaging

Your jewellery is carefully packaged in a white gift box, embossed with my gold flower logo and tied with ribbon. Inside, there’s a care card to help you look after your jewellery and a little thank you card – a small token of my appreciation for supporting handmade.

Care

Each piece of my jewellery is handmade in sterling or fine silver, filled gold, or 9ct gold, with some Keum Boo details or gemstones.

To keep your jewellery looking its best:

Avoid contact with perfume, lotion, and chemicals.
Remove before bathing, swimming, or exercising.
Clean gently with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth.
Store in a dry place, ideally in its box or pouch.
Silver may naturally tarnish over time—use a polishing cloth to restore its shine.
