Description
DINA means day in nepali.
this handcrafted envelope of rice paper encloses two delicate maxi earring studs.
the "maxi" is our super elegant earring-stud which you can now combine with one of our pendants.

jewelry care
it is best to store your jewellery in a soft pouch or box, away from dust, and prevent possible tarnishing. please avoid getting your jewellery in contact with water and lotion. for example, it is best to take your gems off when washing your hands, taking a shower, or on very humid days. gently clean your jewellery with an old toothbrush with soft and worn-out bristles, using either warm (not too hot) water, gentle dish soap, or a product to clean silver. for a simple polish, you can clean your pieces with a very soft cloth such as the ones for glasses. this will get fingerprints away.
please note metals, such as brass, carry the signs of exposure to air and any other element (water, sweat, perfume, …). they will turn darker over time. you can polish brass again using a special brass polishing liquid or vinegar.

YOOMEE was founded by florence in 2014 whilst she was travelling around the world. during her travels she met many people and got to know their stories and handcraft. this was her inspiration to start her own brand. today YOOMEE works closely with a women's association in marrakech, morocco for women with physical disabilities. through this work, the association can also offer physiotherapy to people outside of the association. YOOMEE is all about handcraft - that is also why a lot of YOOMEE products are inspired directly by the craft of indiviual artisans. this is how the idea of the keytags started. YOOMEE works with a lot of left over materials to ensure that there is no over production. all of their leather products are made using left over leather only - this makes each bag series a very limited edition!
YOOMEE and collab are connection through a deep friendship between the founders of both brands. for many years YOOMEE and collab shared an office - and today you can find the YOOMEE flagship store in the collab pfingstweid store. there are many shared projects between us and YOOMEE and we are super happy to work alongside YOOMEE. the slogan "better together" really comes to life with this match :)
YOOMEE stands for
handcraft - social - personal relationships with artisans
