Ports of Call

What are Ports of Call made of?
Ports of Call features warm, luminous tiger’s eye gemstones set in detailed sterling silver—handcrafted drop earrings.

How should I care for tiger’s eye?
Tiger’s eye is fairly durable, but it can scratch or chip if dropped. Avoid harsh chemicals and remove before workouts or heavy activity.

How do I care for sterling silver?
Sterling silver can tarnish over time. Store it dry, away from humidity, and polish gently with a silver polishing cloth when needed.

How do I clean these earrings safely?
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. For the silver, use a silver polishing cloth. Avoid soaking, ultrasonic/steam cleaners, and jewelry dips.

Can I wear them in water (shower, pool, ocean)?
It’s best to remove them. Water, soaps, chlorine, and salt can dull the stone’s polish and speed up silver tarnish.

How should I store Ports of Call?
Store them dry in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box, separate from other jewelry to prevent scratches.

Will the stones look exactly like the photos?
Tiger’s eye varies naturally in banding and shimmer, so each pair may have subtle differences.

Will tiger’s eye shimmer in different lighting?
Yes—tiger’s eye has a natural chatoyancy (a shifting glow) that changes as it catches the light.
