CARE
Ideal behavior to extend the life of ALL jewelry:
Remove your jewelry before washing your hands, applying lotion, perfume or makeup. Using nail polish remover, doing dishes, chopping lemons and tomatoes.
You can swim and sweat in solid Gold jewelry, however remember to take off your Vermeil pieces.
Clean your jewelry gently with a soft cloth and store all pieces in separate bags or small boxes, especially when traveling so as to avoid tangling, scratches and oxidizing elements.
Note on Vermeil (Gold plated) Pieces:
We coat our Vermeil pieces with the highest content of gold available, 2.5 microns. However, we know rings get a lot of work, and hope you wear them for a long time to come.
Each ring purchased directly through our website comes with one complimentary BLING SHINE code; when your ring gets dull you can send it to us and we’ll be happy to polish it, dip it in gold and return it to you shining

RING SIZING
You can find out your ring size by measuring the circumference of your finger at the knuckle.
To get that number take a small strip of paper, wrap it around your knuckle and make a mark where it overlaps. Measure the paper up to that mark to find the circumference of your ring and convert it using the chart below.
If you are between two sizes, take into consideration the season (cold weather usually means skinnier fingers), your knuckle-to-finger ratio and preferred fit, as well as how often you plan on taking it on and off, etc.
Some of our rings are U shaped (with a flat top), which makes them a bit more forgiving in the way they size. They are usually available in 3 sizes S: 4-5, M: 6, L: 7-8. If you are in between sizes, we recommend you choose the smaller one, as this U shape leaves a bit of extra room and loose rings tend to get misshapen easier.
If you are ordering a 14K ring or a custom piece and want to try the fit to be completely be sure of the size, you can request returnable a set of ring samples to be mailed to you for free, please email us at online@martapia.com for more details.
HOW IT'S MADE
All of our pieces are cast in Silver or recycled Gold and inlaid with a combination of enamel and gemstones sourced from independent miners we have tight and long lasting relationships with.
Whereas we keep a few of our best sellers in stock, most of our production happens on a Made-to-order basis, in which batches of pieces are fabricated monthly, and ordering windows run from the 15th of every month until the 14th of the next month. Pieces will be ready 3 weeks later than the window closing date. This production window applies not only to custom pieces but to all pieces that are made to order.
Our current order made-to-order window closes July 14th for delivery on August 7th
We have great respect for our sources and are always working on increasing our knowledge to use them wisely (Marta is currently studying gemology), as a result, we employ an ecosystem of small but talented shops combining ancient techniques such as lost-wax casting and gemstone inlay with some very sophisticated technology such as water jet cutting and 3D printing. The task of manufacturing goods today is not a simple one but we hope the creation of our pieces has a positive impact on everybody involved.
