Care & Usage Guidelines
I. For Decorative Feng Shui Items
To preserve the craftsmanship, appearance, and long-term durability of your decorative item, please follow the care instructions below:
1. Keep the Surface Clean
Dust the item regularly using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using wet cloths, chemical cleaners, or abrasive materials, as these may affect the surface finish or detailing.
2. Avoid Moisture & Humidity
Place the item in a dry environment. Prolonged exposure to moisture or high humidity may cause oxidation, discoloration, or surface changesāespecially for brass or metal materials.
3. Stable Placement
Ensure the item is placed on a stable, flat surface to prevent tipping or falling. Avoid positioning it near the edge of desks, shelves, or high-traffic areas.
4. Avoid Direct Sunlight
Extended exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading, surface aging, or temperature-related material stress. Indoor placement away from strong UV light is recommended.
5. Prevent Physical Damage
Do not drop, strike, or apply excessive pressure to the item. Decorative pieces with carved or layered structures should be handled gently to preserve fine details.
6. Natural Material Changes
For brass or metal items, slight oxidation or patina may develop over time. This is a natural characteristic of the material and does not affect structural integrity.
7. Storage Recommendation
If storing long-term, wrap the item in a soft cloth and keep it in a cool, dry space. Avoid sealed plastic environments where moisture may accumulate.
8. Decorative & Cultural Purpose
This product is intended for decorative and cultural display purposes. It is not a toy and should be kept out of reach of small children and pets.
II. For Jewelry & Cinnabar Items
To preserve the beauty, durability, and craftsmanship of your jewelry, please follow the care instructions below:
1. Keep It Dry
Avoid wearing the jewelry while showering, swimming, exercising, or during heavy perspiration. Moisture and sweat may accelerate oxidation for metal parts and may affect natural materials such as cinnabar.
2. Special Care for Cinnabar (Zhu Sha)
Cinnabar is a traditional mineral-based material valued in Chinese culture for its vivid red color and symbolic meaning.
To protect cinnabar jewelry:
Avoid prolonged exposure to water
Do not soak or wash directly
Keep away from strong sunlight for extended periods
Avoid impact or dropping, as it may crack under force
Due to its material properties, cinnabar pieces should be handled with gentle care.
3. Avoid Chemicals & Fragrances
Remove the jewelry before applying perfume, lotion, sunscreen, or hair products. Chemical exposure may cause discoloration, surface dullness, or material degradation.
4. Clean Gently
After wearing, wipe the jewelry with a soft, dry cloth to remove body oils and dust.
Do not use ultrasonic cleaners, alcohol, or chemical polishing agents.
5. Prevent Scratches
Avoid friction with hard objects, sharp surfaces, or other jewelry pieces. Store separately to prevent surface wear.
6. Proper Storage
When not in use, store in a soft pouch or fabric-lined jewelry box. Keep in a cool, dry environment away from humidity and temperature extremes.
7. Remove Before Sleeping
To prevent accidental pulling, bending, or structural stress, remove necklaces and bracelets before sleeping.
8. Natural Material Characteristics
For brass or copper components, natural oxidation or patina may occur over time. This is normal and does not affect structural integrity.
Cinnabar may show slight variations in color or texture due to its handcrafted nature. These are natural characteristics and not defects.
9. Decorative & Cultural Purpose
This item is intended for decorative and cultural use only. It is not a medical device and does not replace professional advice or treatment.
