The wood in this mosaic has been carefully treated, oiled, and protected to withstand everyday wear and tear. You can wear your clip daily with complete peace of mind.

No, stainless steel jewelry does not tarnish .
Stainless steel is a very durable material that does not oxidize. Unlike some metals such as silver or copper, it retains its bright color for a long time. It is resistant to moisture, perspiration, and everyday wear.
However, to preserve its shine for as long as possible, it is advisable to:
- Avoid prolonged contact with chemicals (perfume, chlorine, household products).
- Clean the jewelry occasionally with a soft cloth.
It is precisely for these qualities that stainless steel is often used in jewelry: it is durable, hypoallergenic and requires no maintenance.
