NATURAL MATERIALS

Caracol loves to use river pearls, shell, wood and leather in the creation of their jewelery and accessories. The use of natural material may bcause a variation in the colour, shape or texture which may differ slightly from the image shown.

METAL

Some people may experiment a change of colour or even a stain on their skin from their metal jewelery. WHY?

The colour change that some people see is due to the metal reacting with your skin. Metal plating turns black during a chemical reaction known as oxidization. Direct contact with the salts in your skin can speed up the oxidization process. Most fashion jewelery has a protective coating over the metal plating. Furthermore, acidic (or highly basic) environments promote the reaction. Normal skin has a slightly acidic pH. But some people's pH levels can trigger this reaction even more. This can cause the metal to tarnish, change coloUr (to a copper like colour) or even turn your skin green. 

It is Important to note that changes in colour are NOT a sign of nickel, lead or cadmium content.

Based in Quebec, Caracol co-creators Eve and Patricia Chagnon share the same values ​​of simplicity, authenticity and responsibility that they instill in their jewelry and accessories collections.

Open to all influences, the Chagnon sisters have been exploring the world of fashion since 1997, which they find attractive for the infinity of forms it can offer. This is how the two accomplices shape, transform and select the original materials and colours to present collections of fashion accessories that stand out.
