Description

This Tourette Syndrome necklace was designed with my own children in mind. I have two children with Tourette Syndrome, so celebrating Tourette Syndrome means everything to our family. I have been making jewelry for years and one day realized I wasn’t making jewelry for a cause that means the world to me.

This necklace is made with our thick 13mm gold filled discs, with a gold vermeil aquamarine stone on our popular gold filled satellite chain, to celebrate you or someone you love with Tourette Syndrome. The most popular length for adults is 18 inches.

Tourette Syndrome is not as rare as most people think. Tourette Syndrome and other Tic Disorders are not rare. The current estimates are that 1 out of every 50 children between the ages of 5-17 in the United States has Tourette Syndrome or another Tic Disorder.

We donate a percentage of our profits to the Tourette Association of America to help increase awareness of TS and donate to research for Tourette Syndrome.

*** All jewelry will come packaged as gifts.

Gold filled and rose gold filled jewelry contains 100% more real gold than gold plated jewelry. Gold filled jewelry is made with a thick layer of real solid 14k gold. Gold filled jewelry has the advantage of being tarnish resistant and durable. It does not flake off, rub off or turn colors, and can easily be worn by people with sensitive skin.

Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver and considered a precious metal. The remaining 7.5% of the alloy is usually copper, adding strength while preserving the appearance of the pure silver. Sterling silver is also okay for most sensitive skin.

Both sterling silver and gold filled jewelry will tarnish less if stored appropriately – in something airtight – and kept clean and dry. I have found that the more I wear my sterling silver jewelry, the less it tarnishes.

All sterling silver and gold filled jewelry will come with an anti tarnish paper and a polishing cloth to help with the care of your jewelry purchased through GiGisPetals. Jewelry that tarnishes can easily be repolished and look as good as new!

Please allow 5-10 business days for made-to-order items for completion. Shipping is extra. Wedding orders may take longer. Please convo me if you need something sooner. All items come from a smoke-free and pet-free studio.
