NAJO Halcyon Anklet A6987

According to Greek mythology, when kingfishers, known as halcyons, built their nests, the gods would calm the seas to keep the nestlings safe. Today, the expression halcyon days has come to mean periods of blissful tranquillity, a feeling captured in this ethereal bracelet design. Our Italian artisans handcraft each piece, creating two strands of chains interspersed with beaded stations. The chains emit a glittering light thanks to the careful diamond-cut faceting around every link.

• Available in sterling silver and 14kt yellow gold plated silver
• Two strands of 1mm wide diamond-cut link chains
• Stations of three 2mm beads
• 23cm long plus 3cm extension
• Responsibly made in Cassola, Italy

Jewellery Care Guide

It is natural for sterling silver jewellery to tarnish or discolour over time, particularly if the piece is worn regularly. Tarnish is caused by several factors which include:

• Exposure to moisture, humidity, direct sunlight for long periods of time.
• Acidity (ph balance) of a person’s skin, which in turn is affected, for example, by diet, medication and stress.
• Exposure to perfume, soap, moisturiser, shampoo etc. and cleaning products such as dishwashing liquid and bleach.
• Exposure to chlorine.

How to Care For Your NAJO Piece

NAJO advises against:

• Swimming, showering or undertaking vigorous exercise while wearing jewellery.
• Exposing jewellery to cleaning agents or cosmetics such as foundations, perfumes, hairsprays.
• Exposing jewellery to excessive heat or prolonged periods of direct sunlight.
• Use of commercial silver ‘dip’ solutions as they are unsuitable for cleaning hollow, oxidised, stone-set, pearl or plated jewellery and can cause surface deterioration.
• Wearing delicate jewellery on more than an occasional basis
