To best care for your garment and the environment, we recommend that you wash at a 30-degree programme with a mild laundry detergent, preferably nontoxic or biodegradable.

Your garment is likely to shrink by 3-5% after washing, but you can regain near original shape by ironing or steaming it.

To protect the environment and the garment, always dry naturally and in the shade.

THE JEWELLERY
 
Every piece is designed and handcrafted in our studio outside Copenhagen. The jewellery is made with admiration for nature’s beauty and respect for the environment and people involved in the process. We constantly strive to be responsible and sustainable in every part of our value chain. Our precious metals are genuine and natural. When possible, we use reclaimed silver, which is old silver that is refined and recycled for the production of new. And we only use certified conflict free diamonds. We are not perfect but we strive to do our best.
 
We hope to spread a little glitter along your way, while staying true and committed to the sustainable way of doing things.

THE JEWELLER
 
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve been creating jewellery.”
 
Sigrun spent most of her childhood in her Grandfather’s blacksmith workshop, making jewellery out of iron and seashells. Sustainability has been of the outmost importance to her from the beginning and the hand-sculpted jewellery is mostly cast in reclaimed silver or gold. During her education Sigrun trained, among others, at London-based jewellery artist Husam el Odeh and later assisted goldsmith Orit Elhanati. Sigrun lives and works in the forest, and inspired by nature’s structures she makes conscious, contemporary and timeless pieces of jewellery.

BRA MEASUREMENT

To find the most accurate size you have to do two measurements, A: bust and B: band. Do the measurements on your bare skin. Start off by measuring all the way around your bust where it’s widest. Then measure all the way around just under your bust. We have plus sizes for mostly all of our bra’s to make sure that bigger busts can fit our bras. When a size is plus size the underband stays the same and the size of the cup will go a size up; for example a size S+ has an underband that fits a regular size S and the cup size fits a regular size M. Be aware that it’s meant for you to start out using the outer buckle of the hook and eye closure first. Then you can adjust and tighten when the underband elastic gets looser.
