These spoons are mostly intended as decorative and ritual pieces rather than everyday tableware. Retailers should position them accordingly, especially where customers may otherwise assume they are standard teaspoons.

Some surface wear or gradual change in appearance should be expected with decorative metal items, particularly if they are frequently handled or exposed to moisture. Avoid abrasive polishing, which may wear the dark silver or bronze-coloured finish.

The range is currently supplied as complete boxed sets. It is therefore better not to promise that a lost or damaged gemstone spoon can be replaced separately.

AW supplies and barcodes them as a complete boxed set rather than as individual spoon. A retailer choosing to split a set would need to manage the individual presentation and identification themselves, and would lose much of the gift-box appeal of the original product.

No. Associations such as love, grounding, intuition or luck are traditional or spiritual meanings rather than scientifically established effects. Retailers can explain the symbolism, but should not turn it into claims that a gemstone can treat or prevent a medical or mental-health condition.
