Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do you offer Afterpay?
Yep! Afterpay is available at checkout.
Buy now, pay later — no stress.
Q: Are your pieces handmade?
Yes! Everything is made by hand — by me.
No factories, no mass production. Each piece is made with intention.
Q: why do you use lab-made stones?
Lab-made stones are a big part of SOURBABEI because they align with how I want to create; sustainably, affordably, and without compromise. They offer the same beauty and durability as natural stones, but with less environmental impact and a lower cost, meaning I can keep my work accessible without sacrificing quality.
They also withstand the extreme heat needed in my process, making them a practical choice for what I do.
Q: What’s your return policy?

Q: How do I care for my ring?
Honestly? Wear it all the time. These rings thrive on love and daily wear — they get shinier the more you touch and live in them. If you leave them sitting around, they can get a bit dull or dusty. Just avoid harsh chemicals and they’ll stay beautiful for years.
Q: Black Marks? No stress!
All SOURBABEI pieces are made from .999 fine silver — ultra-pure, soft, and beautiful. Sometimes, this metal can react with natural oils, sweat, or products on your skin, leaving a faint grey or black mark. It’s totally normal and harmless. Silver’s just getting to know you.
You can rub it off (with some force) using a polishing cloth or a dab of baking soda and water. Over time, the silver will settle into a natural patina and become more stable with wear.
As always, if there are any issues - please reach out via email and I will try my best to assist <3
Q: Do you work with gold?
