What to expect from your jewellery

Air bubbles in resin are to be expected, these will be micro bubbles and will not in anyway affect the performance or longevity of your jewellery.  Bubbles will not be classed as a fault. 

​

1. Fibres, hairs or other elements maybe visible in your jewellery, we do everything possible to remove any unwanted elements but micro pieces maybe visible on detailed inspection.  

2. Colours of our gems may vary greatly.  All breastmilk is unique to the individual or animal, a lot of factors affect the natural colour of breastmilk, this will in turn effect the colour your gem will be once cast into your jewellery.   Colour differences maybe, white, black, grey or brown.  Any colours added by Milk Memory will be as advertised and again may alter the colour of your breastmilk gem.

3. Hair may be transparent once cast into your jewellery.  This will most likely be with lighter coloured hair, white hair will most likely be transparent when in resin, we will always include this when sent to us, however it may not be visible in the completed pieces. 

​
