Care Guide
Durability
- Gold-Plated Brass English Lock Lyre Hooks: Elegant and stylish, but the gold plating can wear off over time. Avoid rough handling to prevent scratches.
- Beads (Semi-Precious Stone, Pearl, Seashell, Artglass, etc.): Durable but can be prone to surface scratches. Handle with care to maintain their luster.
- Koi Fish Charms (Painted and Plated): The painted charms are delicate, while the plated charms can easily scratch. Both types add unique charm but require gentle handling to avoid damage.
Suitability
- Casual Wear: These earrings can be worn for casual outings. Be mindful of moisture and abrasive contact to preserve their beauty.
- Daily Wear: Comfortable for regular use due to hypoallergenic materials. However, limit exposure to water, sweat, and cosmetics to extend the life of the gold plating.
- Special Occasions: Perfect for special events. The unique koi fish charms and intricate designs add an elegant touch. Handle gently to maintain their pristine condition.
Storage
- Store in provided lock bags to protect from dust, moisture, and scratches.
- Keep separate from other jewelry to avoid tangling and potential damage to the plating and delicate charms.
- Prevent exposure to sunlight, moisture, and chemicals to reduce the risk of color fading and oxidation.
Cleaning
- Gently wipe with a small microfiber cloth meant for jewelry polishing to remove fingerprints and restore shine.
- It is fine to clean with water, but ensure thorough drying to prevent oxidation of the findings.
- Avoid using abrasive or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the gold plating and delicate surfaces.
Additional Tips
- Be mindful of the large size and intricate design to avoid tangling in hair.
- Treat the koi fish charms gently, as bending them back and forth can lead to breakage over time.
- For plated charms prone to fingerprints, breathe on them and wipe off with the polishing cloth provided.

- Protect from prolonged exposure to water or humid environments to ensure longevity.
Size Guide
6 & 10mm beads, in some cases the size of the stone beads may vary +-1mm (e.g. my Prehnites are a tad larger, the freshwater pearls aren’t perfect round). Shvenzy English Lock Lyre Hooks are about 10mm in the front. With the spacers and chain links the beaded part of the earring is around 45mm long. The machine cut metal koi charm size is roughly 50x30mm. The total length of a Koi Serenity earring averages around 90mm. The weight for the Koi Serenity earrings is 4.5grams per average – which is still light enough for most people to tolerate wearing it throughout the day. A few in the set exceed my 5 grams principle. If that is a concern, please refer to the product description, where precise weights are noted.Koi Serenity 2025 Design
