FAQ
Have questions? We've got answers.
Is brass safe for skin? Will it turn my skin green?
Brass is perfectly safe for skin —and we only use nickel-free brass, which is gentler on sensitive skin.
Our customers wear our pieces every day with no issues.
How do I care for my jewelry?
To keep your piece looking great:
- Avoid water or directly spraying perfume on it
- Store is in a dry place, preferable a pouch
- Use a soft cloth and lemon to brighten it up whenever necessary
I am not African. Can I wear your jewelry?
Of course!
At Glowing Jewels, all our pieces are designed in Oslo and handmade in Senegal by skilled artisans. Our Afro-Scandi aesthetic celebrates cultural connection—not imitation.
By wearing our jewelry, you're not just making a style statement - you’re supporting fair trade, sustainable practices, and African craftsmanship. It’s cultural appreciation, not appropriation.
Can I wear your brass jewelry every day?
Absolutely! Our pieces are designed for regular wear. Just remove them before swimming, showering, or applying lotion/perfume to keep them looking their best.
Why do you use brass?
We use brass for its:
- Earthy elegance
- Cultural roots in African craftsmanship
- Sustainable and recyclable nature
It’s more than a material—it’s part of our story.
