Our rings are sized using the British alphabetical system. If you are unaware of your ring size, please go into a jewellers + ask to be sized. Alternatively please contact us for information about getting a finger gauge. Before placing your order on a ring, please be sure of your ring size as we have a small resizing fee as well as the cost of redelivery.

JEWELLERY CARE

To avoid tarnishing, polish your jewellery with a polishing cloth or pad. Due to the natural oils in your skin preventing tarnishing,  wearing your jewellery regularly is a great way to keep your jewellery fresh. We recommend you store your jewellery individually packaged in a cool, dry place keeping pieces separate to avoid scratching. Avoid contact with household chemicals, hair products + lotions etc. Remove your jewellery when cleaning, swimming + sunbathing.

BESPOKE

If you are interested in commissioning a piece of jewellery, please get in touch with Charlie directly. Please note that lead time for bespoke commissions will vary depending on Charlie's workload at the time. If you want design sketches of a potential piece, a £30 deposit will be required, non refundable if you decide not to get the piece made.

  • Charlie's Initials or Makers Mark - Every Makers Mark is unique to the maker.

  • A traditional Fineness Mark - The Lion guarantees the piece is, in this case, Sterling Silver.

  • A Millesimal Fineness Mark - Signifies the precious metal content, in this case, Sterling Silver is stamped with '925'. 

  • The Assay Office Mark - Indicates the Assay Office that hallmarked the piece, the Leopard's head signifies London.

  • And finally the Date letter - Indicates the year the piece was hallmarked. In this case 2020 is stamped with 'v'.
