Choose the listed capacity, weight or design. For wraps, request the full length and width. For beadwork, send the relevant neck, wrist, ankle, waist or head circumference; necklace strand length is measured end to end. Handmade dimensions and finished weights are confirmed with the available piece before payment.

Measurements are confirmed by Nareto; no unverified size chart is used.

Wipe beadwork gently with a soft dry cloth; avoid soaking, perfume and pulling the threads. Store separately in a pouch. Confirm fastening materials if you have metal sensitivities.
