Care guide
Caring for your ILEAO jewelry
Each ILEAO piece is handcrafted with care, using only high quality materials. To preserve their beauty and longevity, follow these simple care tips:
Wear with intention
Avoid wearing your pieces while swimming, showering or exercising to minimize exposure to water, sweat, and chemicals. Always put your jewelry on last when getting ready to minimize contact with personal care products. Take off your jewelry before washing hands, doing dishes or handling cleaning products as harsh chemicals can damage metals and gemstones.
Keep it clean
Gently wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth (provided in your jewelry box) after wearing to remove oils and dirt.
For a deeper clean, use a gentle brush such as a soft-bristle toothbrush (no abrasives), mild soap with warm water, rinse thoroughly then pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using paper towels, as they can scratch the metal surface. Once completely dry, use a jewelry polishing cloth to gently buff the piece, restoring its shine.
Store mindfully
Keep your jewelry in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Do not store your jewelry in bathroom drawers. Ideally, store each piece individually in an airtight bag before placing it in its microfiber pouch.
Prevent tarnish
Both silver and brass naturally oxidize over time. This process can vary and develop more quickly depending on each person's body chemistry, the care given to the jewelry and environmental exposure.
To maintain the luster of your pieces, be sure to follow this care guide. Use a jewelry polishing cloth from time to time ( one that is safe for silver, brass and gold jewelry) or have your pieces professionally cleaned and polished with your local jeweler. Most jewelers offer this service for free or for a small fee.
Embrace the changes
Your jewelry will develop a natural patina with wear, telling a story unique to you. Silver will darken, highlighting its details while brass will take on a rich, antique look. However, with proper care, your pieces can last a lifetime.
Embrace theses changes as part of the jewelry's character, or, if you prefer a high-polish finish, occasional polishing will maintain its original glow.

Size guide
☀ Rings ☀
Finding the perfect ring size ensures a comfortable and secure fit. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you determine your size at home.
1. Measure an existing ring
1. Choose a ring that fits the intended finger well. For the most accurate measurement, choose a ring with a similar width to the one you’re purchasing. If you're buying a wide, bold ring, measure a similarly wide ring. If you're purchasing a thin ring, use a thin ring for comparison.
2. Measure the inside diameter of the ring using a ruler (in mm).
3. Match the measurement to our size chart below:
Ring size (US) : |
Inside diameter (in mm) : |
4 | 14,8mm |
5 | 15,6mm |
6 | 16,4mm |
6 1/2 | 16,8mm |
7 | 17,2mm |
7 1/2 | 17.6mm |
8 | 18mm |
8 1/2 | 18,4mm |
9 | 18,9mm |
10 | 19, 8mm |
* Please note that all measurements are approximate, as our rings are handcrafted. A small margin of variation may occur.
A few points to keep in mind :
- Measure at the end of the day when your fingers are at their largest.
- Stacking rings: if layering multiple rings, consider sizing half a size up for comfort.
- Our dominant hand tends to have slightly thicker fingers, so consider this when measuring.
- Wide bands : wider rings feel tighter, so you may need a half or full size up.
- Finger size can fluctuate—fingers may shrink slightly in cold weather and expand in warmer temperatures.
- The most common size for women is size 6 or 7 (ring finger).
2. Ask your local jeweler about your ring size (most accurate option)
Any jewelry store will be happy to help you determine your ring size.
3. Get a ring sizer belt. They are easy to find online and are usually accurate. Wrap the belt around your finger until it feels secure but still comfortable. Make sure it stays on without slipping off, yet can be removed without forcing it.
☀ Bracelets ☀
How to measure your wrist:
- Use a flexible measuring tape or a piece of string.
- Wrap it around your wrist where you would normally wear a bracelet.
- Mark the measurement and compare it to the chart below :
Wrist circumference | Fitted bracelet size | Comfort fit |
Small-Medium | 6" | 6.5" |
Medium-Large | 6.5" | 7" |
Notes:
- Fitted size: sits snugly on the wrist
- Comfort fit: looser, allowing for more movement.
- If you are in between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort.

Handmade with love
No 3D printing, no mass production. Just my hands, traditional tools and a craft rooted in patience. I shape, solder and polish each piece myself, pouring my heart into every detail.

« To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.
To listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with open heart.
To let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.
This is to be my symphony. »
