FAQ

JEWELRY 

DOES YOUR JEWELRY BREAK EASILY?

No. We've been making mirror jewelry for over ten years. After trying and testing mirror types and design solutions, we've developed a durable design we're proud of. So if you drop these on accident, don't worry they won't break easily. You do need to treat these with care however for longevity.

WILL YOUR MIRROR JEWELRY HURT ME?

No. We've carefully sanded each piece and plus, each piece of mirror is wrapped in sterling silver for maximum safety. The edges are smooth. 

SO, WHAT COLOR ARE IS YOUR JEWELRY, EXACTLY?

Our jewelry does not have one color. Since it's made from literal mirror shards, it reflects everything around you. When you wear our pieces, the "color" will change based on your surroundings. For example, our earrings  are not blue, they are simply reflecting a blue sky. See the animated gifs in our product pages for reference of how they look in real life. 

 

WILL MY JEWELRY LOOK LIKE THE PHOTO?

Thank you for trusting us with your online purchase, we make every effort to display true and accurate colors and representations of our products on our website. Our jewelry is made with repurposed mirrors and is photographed in a natural setting, so the mirror reflects what is around it. 

DO YOU ONLY MAKE ONE-OF-A-KIND PIECES?

Yes. We hand craft each piece using repurposed materials that can not be replicated, so each of our designs are one-of-a-kind. We produce in small batches and do not repeat a design once it sells out. Some of our designs may look similar, but no design will ever be exactly the same. 


HOW DO I CARE FOR SILVER JEWELRY ?

Our jewelry is special. It is hand crafted and made with repurposed mirror wrapped in sterling silver. Our silver is made with a mixture of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper to enhance luster, strength and durability. Each item is stamped with 925 as proof of its quality.

Sterling silver naturally tarnishes when exposed to salty air, chlorine, sulfur, humidity, perspiration, cosmetics, household bleach and other strong chemicals.You can purchase a jewelry cloth to clean any tarnish on the silver, or for stubborn tarnish and stains, take your pieces to a local jeweler for professional cleaning.

We encourage you to take treat our designs with care for longevity. Take jewelry off before you go into hot tubs, pools, the ocean, saunas, or when you're applying lotion or cosmetics. 


WHAT'S MY RING SIZE?

We cannot determine your ring size for you as it is a personal preference, but we will do our best to help guide you. If you do not know your ring size, we highly recommend having your finger sized by a local jeweler and asking for your US ring size. If this is not possible, there's a quick way to do it a home. Simply wrap a thin strip of paper snugly around your desired ring finger. Once it's wrapped comfortably, mark where the end of the strip lands. Unwrap the strip and lay flat against a ruler to measure the total length of your ring size.

I DON'T SEE MY RING SIZE WHAT SHOULD I DO?

At this time we only offer the most popular ring sizes on our site. However, you can send us an email at info@purposerosa.com if you have a ring size you want us to carry in the future and we will keep you in mind as we design our next collection! 

WHAT DOES REPURPOSED MEAN?

Repurposed means the materials we design with are being used in a way that is different from their original purpose. Using repurposed mirrors in our designs, it allows us to sustainably continue the life of a material that is difficult to recycle and is normally discarded. We believe we are part of our environment, so we center sustainable practices in our business. By eliminating the environmental impact of our design sourcing, we aim to bring more mindfulness to how ordinary women view their relationship to the world.
