Jewelry Care Guide

Your jewelry is crafted with love and care, and with proper maintenance, it can last a lifetime. Follow these simple steps to keep your pieces looking as beautiful as the day you received them.

General Care Tips

  1. Avoid Contact with Chemicals:

    • Remove your jewelry before using perfumes, lotions, hairspray, or cleaning agents. Chemicals can tarnish metals and dull gemstones.

  2. Remove Jewelry Before Activities:

    • Take off your jewelry before swimming, exercising, or engaging in household chores to prevent damage.

  3. Store Safely:

    • Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or jewelry box to avoid scratches or tangling.

  4. Wear Last, Remove First:

    • Put on your jewelry last after getting dressed and remove it first when undressing to minimize contact with fabrics or cosmetics.

Cleaning Your Jewelry

  1. Gold & Gold-Plated Jewelry:

    • Use a soft cloth or a gentle jewelry polishing cloth to wipe away dirt and restore shine.

    • For deeper cleaning, soak the jewelry in warm soapy water, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush, and pat dry with a soft cloth.

  2. Silver Jewelry:

    • Use a silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish.

    • Avoid using harsh abrasives or chemicals that can damage the finish.

  3. Gemstone Jewelry:

    • Clean with a damp cloth and avoid submerging delicate stones like pearls or opals in water.

    • Ensure gemstones are secure before wearing, as they may loosen over time.

  4. Avoid Ultrasonic Cleaners for Delicate Pieces:

    • Ultrasonic cleaners are not suitable for porous gemstones (e.g., opals, pearls) or jewelry with intricate detailing.

Special Care for Different Materials

  • Pearls:

    • Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove oils. Store in a soft cloth pouch, away from direct sunlight.

  • Diamonds:

    • Soak in warm soapy water, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush, and dry with a lint-free cloth for a brilliant sparkle.

  • Gold-Plated Jewelry:

    • Avoid excessive exposure to water and sweat to preserve the plating. Clean with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive materials.

Avoiding Tarnish

  • Store jewelry in a dry, cool place away from humidity. Adding anti-tarnish strips to your storage can help slow down tarnishing.

  • Always remove jewelry before bathing or swimming to prevent tarnish and water damage.
