- Will this charm tarnish or turn my skin green?
- It is made of 304 stainless steel, which is sold as non-tarnish. Stainless steel generally resists discoloration and is a common choice for people who react to plated or brass jewelry.
- What size jump ring or cord fits the hole?
- The hole is 1mm, so use thin wire, fine cord or a small jump ring that passes through it. Thicker rings and most leather cords will not fit.
- How big is the charm?
- It measures about 13mm long, 9mm wide and 1mm thick, roughly the size of a small fingernail. It is a dainty accent rather than a statement piece.
- Can I use it in a bracelet or anklet?
- Yes. Its light weight and small size suit bracelets, anklets and delicate necklaces. Check that your chain links or jump rings fit the 1mm hole.
- How does it compare with a sterling silver leaf charm?
- Stainless steel is harder and more scratch-resistant than sterling silver and does not tarnish the same way. Sterling silver is softer and can be polished, but it costs more and needs more care.
- Is it safe to wear in water?
- 304 stainless steel handles occasional water exposure better than plated metals, but repeated contact with chlorine or salt water can dull the finish. Dry it after swimming or showering.
