Yes, absolutely. All our pieces are crafted with a skin-safe, sealed surface. We use non-toxic materials and finishes to ensure they are comfortable and safe for everyday wear.
2. Will the concrete break easily?
Our concrete mix is specially formulated and reinforced to be more durable than standard construction concrete. While it’s still a material that can chip if dropped on hard surfaces, it holds up very well with regular use—like any artisanal ceramic or stone accessory.
3. Is it heavy?
Surprisingly, no. We design our pieces to be wearable and lightweight. Each item is carefully engineered for balance—so you get the boldness of concrete without the bulk.
4. Can it cause skin allergies or irritation?
No. We avoid allergens like nickel and use hypoallergenic metals (such as stainless steel, sterling silver, brass, or gold-plated findings) paired with sealed concrete. If you have very sensitive skin, let us know—we can customize metal options.
5. What is the concrete made of?
Our mix includes raw and recycled concrete—often reclaimed from architectural rubble. We refine it into a wearable casting material and sometimes mix in brass fibers or natural pigments. Every piece tells a material story.
6. Is each piece unique?
Yes. Every item is handmade, and no two pieces are exactly alike. The natural variations in the concrete, casting marks, and embedded materials make each design one-of-a-kind.
7. How should I care for my concrete jewelry?
Store your pieces in a dry place. Avoid prolonged contact with water, perfumes, or harsh chemicals. If needed, wipe gently with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Think of them like ceramics—beautiful and sturdy, but deserving of care.
8. Can I request a custom design?
Absolutely. We offer limited custom commissions and can collaborate on pieces for special occasions or themes. Contact us through our Custom Design page or email us directly.
9. Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping rates and delivery times will be calculated at checkout. We take extra care in packaging our pieces to ensure they arrive safely wherever you are.
10. What inspires your collections?
Our work is inspired by Palestinian architecture, landscape, and memory. We see concrete not just as a material—but as a witness to place, time, and transformation.
11. Are the flowers real?
Yes! Every flower, leaf, or botanical element in our jewelry is 100% real. We handpick natural plants and flowers that hold meaning—then preserve them using a special technique that keeps their shape, texture, and vibrant color.
12. How do you preserve the flowers?
Unlike traditional drying methods, we use a botanical mummification process. This method gently removes moisture while preserving the structural integrity and natural pigment of each petal and leaf—so the flowers stay soft-looking and rich in detail, not brittle or faded.
13. Do the flowers fade over time?
Our preservation process slows down fading significantly. However, as with all organic materials, some soft aging may occur over many years. To prolong vibrancy, store your piece away from direct sunlight and moisture.
14. Do you grow your own flowers?
Yes, we do. Many of the flowers and plants we use are either grown in our own garden or respectfully gathered from wild native flora during our hikes and explorations around our landscape. Each botanical element carries a story of place—rooted in the land that inspires our work. We never overharvest and are deeply mindful of preserving local biodiversity.
