Mermaid Lucia Care Guide

Mermaid Lucia pieces are handmade and often include delicate fabrics, structured resin, crystals, beads, and specialty components. Gentle care helps preserve their shape, finish, and decorative details.

General care: Handle all Mermaid Lucia handmade products gently. Avoid strong pulling, squeezing, folding, impact, and contact with sharp or abrasive surfaces.

Do not place heavy items on top of structured resin pieces.
Store the item in a dry location without pressure on its shape.
Do not intentionally heat, reshape, cut, glue, or modify the piece unless instructed by Mermaid Lucia.

Monofins & Tail Fin Support Boards
