WHAT MATERIALS DO I WORK WITH?
I work mainly with stainless steel primers for their resistance but also gold-plated elements (generally 18 k gold-plated brass. Aluminum is also a precious ally for its lightness and malleability. The pearls chosen are natural which makes it unique each creation due to the color variations specific to each pearl, always of grade AB and AA quality For creations made of leather or fur, I use pieces of recovery (cuttings or pieces at the end of their life, etc.) from tanning natural (no chemicals).

Whether they are stainless steel or gold-plated, to preserve their shine, it is important to take care of them.

I LIVE OUTSIDE OF CANADA, WILL I HAVE TO PAY CUSTOMS FEES?
For all orders placed outside of Canada, it is likely that your order will be subject to customs and import charges, the person who will receive the order will be responsible for covering these costs.
These costs being independent and out of my control, depending on the country of delivery the amounts vary, this is why I am unable to give an estimate of the potential costs.
