Each piece from Ossuary & Orchid is a delicate fusion of organic matter and hand-poured resin. To ensure your memento mori remains in pristine condition for years to come, please observe the following care guidelines:
-
Shield from Direct Light: While I use premium resin, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight will cause preserved botanicals to fade and the resin to naturally yellow over time. Display your piece in a shaded area to maintain its original contrast and quiet beauty.
-
Avoid Extreme Heat: High temperatures can cause resin to soften or warp. Keep your curiosity in a temperature-controlled environment, well away from radiators, fireplaces, or direct heatsources.
-
Clean with Care: To remove dust or fingerprints from the resin surface, gently buff with a dry, soft microfiber cloth.
-
Shun Harsh Chemicals: Never use glass cleaners, rubbing alcohol, or harsh detergents on the resin. These will strip the surface and permanently dull the polished finish.
-
Handle with Grace: Though encased and glazed, bones and dried botanicals within are real and remain inherently fragile. Avoid dropping the shadow box or placing heavy objects atop your coffin display.
