The Anastasia Necklace

• The Anastasia Necklace features a minimalist tiny butterfly, two round diamond stones, two marquise diamond stones, and a center marquise keepsake stone. This is the smallest, daintiest keepsake stone in the Milk Couture Co. collection.

• The chain has three placements at the following lengths: 14", 16", 18"

• We offer this piece in 925 sterling silver with simulated diamonds, 18K yellow gold vermeil with simulated diamonds, solid 14K/18K yellow gold with genuine diamonds, solid 14K/18K rose gold with genuine diamonds, solid 14K/18K white gold with genuine diamonds and platinum with genuine diamonds.

• We offer multiple butterflies and possible birthstone options instead of diamonds, but this is currently only available as a custom order. Please email cait@milkcouture.co for your custom request!

• Our diamonds are conflict-free lab grown diamonds; average color (D), average clarity (VS).

• It is recommended to keep inclusion enhancements to a minimum for this piece, as the keepsake stone is so small (max recommended would be 3-4).

• Keepsake stone design elements in these photos: breastmilk + pearl shimmer

If you are wanting a piece to wear frequently please choose SOLID GOLD. It is much more durable than sterling silver/plated, which is more suited for occasional wear.

For examples of all inclusion enhancements, please see our lookbook.

For INTERNATIONAL orders, you can place the order directly from our website. Sometimes it may cancel automatically. If this happens, we will see it, and can resubmit the order from the backend of our store and that works every time.

Please read the entire FAQ prior to making a purchase. Check our social media to see examples of stone designs. Our instagram has a stone design story highlight with tons of beautiful combinations of our stone design elements.

Additional milk preservation refers to the number of additional milk samples you'd like us to preserve. Some mamas would like us to preserve milk from breastfeeding multiple children.

You will receive a confirmation email with detailed shipping instructions on how to send your keepsake inclusions/milk (this is also detailed in the FAQ). After making a purchase, you can check on where your order is in the process by going to the order status page.

Every piece of keepsake jewelry is as beautiful and unique just as the story behind it. No piece will be 100% "perfect" as there are always small imperfections such as bubbles, evidence of sanding, etc. That is the nature of handcrafted jewelry. By purchasing a piece with Milk Couture Co., you are acknowledging that it will not be completely flawless.

Our current turnaround time from when we receive your breastmilk/keepsake until you receive your piece in the mail is approximately 3-6 months. This timeline is an estimate and subject to change.

Treat your precious keepsake jewelry/items as you would treat your grandmother's heirloom pearls - with great love and care.  Do not shower, bathe, wash hands, do dishes, work out, sunbathe, swim, or sleep while wearing your jewelry. Do not expose your jewelry to chemicals (lotion, perfume, hairspray, laundry/dish soap, etc.), extreme temperatures, humidity, extended UV light, or essential oils as this can discolor the keepsake stones. Do not store your jewelry in direct sunlight or in a humid area like a bathroom.

With all of that being said, I have done a TON of testing on my keepsake stones. I have put it in water in my window UV light for 2+ years and it still looks beautiful. I also tested in in hand sanitizer, laundry detergent, and even my husband's bourbon (lol)! You can see all of these tests on my IG highlights BTS 1 and BTS 2.

I also recently did testing on resizing our jewelry, and it can be done! You need to find a jeweler who can specifically do laser resizing, where they don't heat up the stones or dip them in chemicals. This does not work for eternity rings (Etheria or mens rings), or plated/vermeil pieces.

A silver polishing cloth is included with each jewelry order. We caution against using the cloth frequently on plated pieces and vermeil as it can strip the plating.
