FAQ
About Via Saviene
What is Via Saviene?
Via Saviene is our projection of the modern woman and all she desires. It is the result of our time spent studying the needs, aspirations and desires of modern women. Saviene is the name of our very own muse, and “via” means “way of”. As a brand, we celebrate modern women who go the way of Saviene.
We crafted Via Saviene around this way of life, infusing these values into our brand, from product to packaging and beyond. Our modern aesthetics are a celebration of Saviene, and we’ll continue to evolve alongside her. Explore the world of Via Saviene.
Our Products
What materials does Via Saviene use?
We use high quality brass with plating that far exceeds industry standards, in gold, rhodium and hematite. Our stones are Swarovski crystals and Cubic Zirconia.
Ear posts are crafted in hypoallergenic sterling silver, which is a softer material, so we suggest reading our jewelry care guide for care details. Most importantly, all of our materials are safe to wear.
Where are Via Saviene products made?
We’re proud to work with our manufacturers in China, with whom we’ve enjoyed a long term partnership. Expert artisans bring our designs to life. These craftsmen hand-finish each product with a sought-after level of skill that is hard to find. Beyond this, they also prioritize social and environmental compliances, conducting yearly audits to ensure they are meeting—and exceeding—these responsible standards.
Care For Your Jewelry
How do I care for my Via Saviene jewelry?
In general, we recommend that you avoid excess friction (any items coming into direct contact with your jewelry) and moisture (from makeup, body products, perspiration, etc). This will prolong the like-new appearance of your jewelry. Because our jewelry is created with robustly plated brass, some change in color and plating wear is expected over time. Frequent cleaning prevents tarnish build up due to oxidation of the metal. For more information, see our complete Care Guide.
Daily Wear
• Moisture and jewelry don’t mix. Shield your jewelry on rainy days. Don’t allow contact with lotions, fragrances and other body products. Water and oil-based products will increase the chance of tarnishing.
• While your jewelry pairs perfectly with a post-workout look, we recommend only wearing it on dry, clean skin. Don’t bathe, swim or workout while wearing it.
•Stacking jewelry is one of our favorite ways to wear it, but that can also cause surface scratches.
• Our earring posts are sterling silver, a softer material that is susceptible to bending and should be treated with extra care. Avoid bending it, as it might break.
• Clean earring posts frequently with a sterling silver polishing cloth and cleaner to prevent tarnish buildup and keep them looking their best.
Cleaning
• Clean your jewelry regularly to avoid tarnish buildup.
• To clean your jewelry, wipe each piece with a non-abrasive cloth, preferably those meant for plated jewelry only.
• Avoid cleaning plated jewelry with chemicals, as they could discolor the surface and cause damage.
Storing
• Carefully store your jewelry in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and heat.
• To maintain like-new condition, store your jewelry inside sealed, moisture-free bags.
