Copper is a naturally hygienic metal that slows down the growth of germs such as E-coli & MRSA



Copper is an essential mineral found in all plant life and in the human body.



The use of copper dates back over 10,000 years



Jewellery is a good way of taking in the small amount of the mineral needed. The healing properties of copper, in the form of bracelets, necklaces, rings, or earrings, can allow a minimal amount of the mineral into the body without overwhelming it.

Some wearers of copper jewellery find it relieves the symptoms of arthritis and circulation problems.



Due to the nature of copper, it can discolour over time, this is from oxidisation caused by exposure to skin oils, air & water.



Its simple to keep clean and untarnished simply by taking of during showers, overnight and using a silver cloth to polish every now and again!

Remember its good for you so don't worry! :)
