Care:  Enamel jewelry is created by the fusion of glass at very high temperatures with precious metals like gold, silver and copper. Like a fine glass sculpture, enamel jewelry is beautiful and yet can be fragile.  I like to tell me customers to treat it as if it were glass not metal.  Then you are sure to avoid any heartbreak. Be careful handling your pieces of enamel jewelry while you are cleaning it to prevent any accidental damage. Since it is glass be careful not to use any abrasives.  Use only soft clothes and mild detergent to wash, maybe even rinsing.  I find silver best stored in plastic to avoid tarnishing.  It you want to remove tarnish from silver and your piece has a patina be careful as you can quickly remove the patina by using materials like a Sunshine Cloth.

The Jewelry:  All of the jewelry made has been careful constructed by hand.  I also do all the photography.  I do this to ensure that you see the details and quality of each piece.  Please be aware however that certain colors may be appear slightly different depending on your computer monitor.   All the items at Teka and Zoe some items may be made to order OR one of a kind.  You may not get the exact item pictured.   There may be slight variances from piece to piece.   I try to note in the description if a piece is one of a kind.

We have made every effort to display accurate colors in the photographs on this web site, however, due to numerous variations in the settings of your monitor, we can not guarantee that the colors that you view on your screen are the exact colors of the items.  My photography is very magnified to show you the details.  but this can be deceptive.  I also will have the measurements of the piece listed plus I try to always photograph it in my hand to show scale.
