With our raw stone designs, just leave a note during checkout with your instagram username and we’ll send you a video of options so you can pick your favorite piece. If you don’t absolutely love it, we’ll fully refund before shipping. That way there’s ZERO risk in ordering, we’ll make sure you end up with jewelry you absolutely love!
If there’s multiple designs you want to decide between, or if you want to see options of what to stack with it… we can show you that too!
The Mini July Stackable is made with a genuine, red Ruby (which has a bit more of a maroon color to it than January's Garnet). The Ruby has been cut into a perfect rectangular shape. This mini collection is 100% handmade with real, authentic stones in their polished form.
Often when you buy a "birthstone ring" from somewhere else, it's actually just a piece of plastic (CZ) that is dyed to be the color of Ruby. But that is NOT the case here! This is an actual Ruby. At Little Sycamore, you'll always be getting the real authentic stuff.
My vision for these is for you to grow your collection over time- a ring to represent a new baby, to celebrate a 10 year anniversary, your spouse's birthstone, to honor your grandmother, to treat yourself to your own gorgeous birthstone, a stack of your kiddos, a ring to represent the tender month you lost someone but a way to wear the memory of their beautiful life, or just a unique way to wear your favorite color. You can build your ring stack to wear all together, layer on different fingers, or change it up every day depending on your outfit. I can’t wait to see what you’ll represent and to hear the meaning behind your Little Sycamore ring stack!
For ring stacks, I recommend ordering a variety of sizes and sizing up because a stack is more comfortable that way. More advice about this can be found on my @littlesycamore instagram highlights.
Choosing a FILLED vs SOLID ring:
Gold/rose FILLED is gold bonded in a way that is 100x thicker than if it were plated in gold, so it is similar to solid gold but at a much more affordable price. Gold/rose filled is a very high quality and tarnish resistant material that should last many years of everyday use if cared for well.
But if you order in SOLID yellow/rose/white gold or in SOLID silver, the benefit is that it is literally impossible for the metal to ever wear down to a base metal beneath (since is is solid through and through), even after a lifetime of everyday use.

REGULAR PROCESSING TIMES
Here is the timeline you can expect for your pretty things to be sent your way!
CUSTOM ORDERS
Almost all of our custom designs are always available for purchase. If a custom design is sold out, it will restock the 1st day of every month at 10:00 am pacific time. Spots always fill up quickly, so it's a good idea to set a reminder in your phone calendar if you want one of these spots!
RING SIZING
We have a Ring Sizing Tool that will help you determine your size. For tips on how to size in a ring stack, I recommend watching my instagram highlight titled "sizing + info" Another option is to stop by a local jeweler, they're usually happy to tell you your ring size free of charge!
Rings cannot be resized due to the unique way they are formed. But if you purchased a standard non-custom design, I am happy to have you exchange it for another size.
Due to the variance in ring sizing tools you may be measuring with and due to variation in the handmade process, it is expected for ring sizes to vary by a quarter of a size.
JEWELRY CARE TIPS
How to clean my ring? For cleaning chains or the metal of your ring, you should use our Jewelry Polishing Cloths. If your jewelry is plated, then you don't want to be too hard with your scrubbing or with cleaning agents because you don't want to wear down the plating. If you have a solid silver ring though, you can rub as vigorously as you'd like haha because it can never wear down since it is solid silver through and through. For cleaning the stones, the best tool us warm water and a toothbrush- I know that is random but it gets in the little nooks really well!
What if the metal on my jewelry has darkened? Every now and then real metal can develop a patina. Not harmful at all, just something that happens with real metal sometimes when it comes in contact with certain minerals like sulfur or if it isn't worn for a long time (you should store your jewelry in an air tight place like a plastic baggie if it won't be worn for a long time). Simply wearing it for a week or two is often all that is needed to polish it bright again, or use your Jewelry Polishing Cloth!
What if my ring needs to be redipped? If your ring is one of the solid silver ones, it will never need to be redipped. Sometimes a gold or rose gold plated ring will need to be redipped down the road after lots of everyday use and I'm happy to do that for you! Email hello@littlesycamore.com for instructions.
Keep jewelry away from harsh chemicals like hand sanitizer and chlorine.
GIFT WRAPPING
Every order is packaged ready for gift giving! If you want us to include a written note for you, please request that in the notes during checkout.
NOT DONE HAVING BABIES, BUT WANT MOTHERS JEWELRY
You want some mothers jewelry but you aren't done having kids? I have some designs that are perfect for that! You can add birthstones later on to the Mothers Charm Necklace & the Mothers Drop Necklace. There are also Stackable Birthstone Rings for every month, and you can add to your stack whenever you have another babe!
MATERIALS
Only the highest quality materials are used. Real authentic gemstones. Raw and unpolished, which means they come straight from the earth looking this pretty! Please refer to listing description to see what metals are used. Only the highest quality metals are used- for the raw stone rings it can be solid sterling silver and left as is in silver or dipped in high quality 18k gold or rose gold. If you're hard on your rings I recommend going with solid silver for the raw stone rings so that you don't have to worry about wearing down plating over time. The solid rose/gold Minis are also an option that will never need any upkeep! But if you decide on a plated piece, we're happy to redip it later on down the road if it is ever needed!
REPAIRS
If your necklace chain breaks, email me and we can get that repaired for you! For other kinds of incidents happening or repairs needed, I can't guarantee that we will always be able to help but I promise to do what I can!
We do not cover damages to jewelry when stored in our jewelry cases or boxes. They're incredibly strong, but damages can potentially happen due to customer error.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOM + IMPORT TAXES
Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. I'm not responsible for delays due to customs.
IS IT REALLY HANDMADE
Often people claim handmade when it isn't truly handmade. Handmade is very important to us though & I can guarantee that we choose to go handmade on every step of the process that is feasible to do so. Every single stone ring starts out as a hand hammered band underneath the metal build up. I could order cheap ring shanks from China to use instead. But I choose to support growing a team of artists helping me instead, and I believe that people can feel the love that is poured into every step being handmade.
