How Your Jewelry Will Arrive

Does my jewelry come with a Story Card?

Most Holly Lane pieces include a Story Card! A few exceptions:

  • Select vault items: Some vault pieces no longer have Story Cards, but we'll provide the verse reference
  • Accessories: Bead drops, chains, and other accessories do not include Story Cards

You can see if a piece includes a Story Card on its product page.

How will my jewelry be packaged?

Holly Lane Collection pieces (with Story Cards): Most arrive in a jewelry pouch with the Story Card enclosed. While supplies last, some may arrive in a cotton muslin pouch instead.

Accessories (chains, bead drops, etc.): Sterling chains come in a square navy envelope on a jewelry card. Bead drops, extender chains, and pendant clasps arrive in small glassine pouches (while supplies last).

Cleaning & Care

Why does sterling silver tarnish?

Tarnishing is a natural process that occurs when sterling silver reacts with sulfur in the air, creating a darkened layer on the surface. This doesn't mean your jewelry is damaged - it's simply a normal characteristic of genuine sterling silver!

Factors that can speed up tarnishing include humidity, air exposure, lotions, perfumes, and body chemistry. The good news? Tarnish is easily removed with proper care.

How do I clean my Holly Lane jewelry?

You can keep your Holly Lane pieces bright and beautiful with our easy-to-use polishing cloths and buffing squares to restore your Holly Lane heirlooms to their original gleam.

Simple care tips:

  • Gently buff with a polishing cloth to remove tarnish
  • Store in a cool, dry place (like your jewelry pouch)
  • Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or applying lotions
  • Wearing your silver regularly actually helps prevent tarnish!
What if my jewelry needs professional cleaning?

Once we pause operations, we recommend visiting a local jeweler for professional cleaning or more intensive care. Most jewelers offer silver cleaning services and can help restore your piece to its original beauty.

Process & Quality

Who makes the jewelry?

I do! I (Tiffany) design each piece by hand in our studio in Central Virginia. Next, molds are taken of the original piece which are then cast in sterling silver. Once they're back, our team finishes the piece by beading and shining it to perfection. See our video on How It's Made and read how I got started here.

Is Holly Lane made in the USA?

Holly Lane Jewelry is made in the USA, in our studio in the heart of Virginia.

Does Holly Lane jewelry contain nickel?

While our sterling is an alloy of fine silver and a second metal, there is a potential that brass, copper or nickel may be used to help strengthen the silver. The sterling silver we use contains .925 fine silver and .075 copper.

Where does your inspiration come from?

I draw inspiration from many sources to keep me fresh and creative! Scripture, conversations with others, and personal experiences.

Custom Orders

Can I special order a different necklace length or bracelet width?

Due to our transition and closeout sale, we are not accepting custom orders or modifications at this time. All items are available as-shown only.

Can you create a custom design for me?

We're not taking custom design requests during our closeout period. However, we encourage you to explore our current collection - you may find the perfect piece among our existing designs!

Can I order a piece that's sold out?

Unfortunately, no. Once an item is sold out, it will not be restocked. We recommend shopping soon to ensure you can get the pieces you love before they're gone!

Will you offer custom work in the future?

We're taking this time to seek God's direction for Holly Lane's future. Join our mailing list to be the first to know if we resume custom work or launch new offerings!

Giving Holly Lane as a Gift

Do you offer gift wrap or gift cards?

Due to our closeout sale, we are no longer offering gift wrap services or selling new gift cards at this time.

Add a Note

You can add a gift note to your order at https://hollylane.com/cart which will be printed on the gift receipt enclosed in the order. We do not include prices on our invoices.
