The acorn lies the hope of all! I have always liked the meaning of the proverb "Mighty Oaks from Little Acorns Grow". This hand-burnished brass or stainless steel acorn vial measures 1" in length and 3/4" in diameter and has a lid that screws off to reveal a message inside (optional). The possibilities are endless as to what you can put inside. I have hung it from an antiqued bronze Sattelite chain (with tiny dots along the chain). You can choose any length you like (the model wears 18 inches and 30 inches). It’s a great piece to layer with other pieces or just on its own.

Our jewelry is made of brass, which will naturally darken/patina over time. We like both ways, but if you want to bring it back to it’s shiniest self you can polish it with a silver cleaning cloth or just dry buff with Scotch Brite pad (the one you use for dishwashing 就是乾的菜瓜布). Don’t be puttin’ any chemicals on it.

To keep it from darkening, avoid things like wearing it while skinny dipping in the lake, rubbing it down with lotion, or sweating all over it at the gym. If you do one or all of these things see the above tip for how to deal.
