Resin is strong and durable, yet should be treated as a ceramic. Just like ceramic it can break if dropped or knocked against a hard surface. Dinosaur Designs is not responsible for breakages that result from pieces being dropped or knocked, or that are damaged due to general wear and tear.

Like many materials, certain colours in resin may change over time, due to the conditions they are exposed to. We do not consider this to be a flaw in the product, merely a characteristic of the product as it ages, giving your piece an individual patina. To prolong the original colours, keep away from sunlight.

To restore sheen to your matte resin jewellery, simply apply moisturiser.
