Caring for your Jewellery

Caring for your Jewellery

 

General care

• Wear on dry skin, perfumes and lotions can tarnish metal. Take jewellery off before doing your skin care routine.
• Avoid harsh chemicals when cleaning.
• Avoid bumping or knocking against hard surfaces. This could cause scratches to metal or damage to precious stones.

 

Cleaning your jewellery at home

• Be gentle.
• Wear gloves or mitts.
• Don’t use harsh chemicals, just warm soapy water.
• Use a soft polishing cloth.
• Stubborn tarnish can be removed with equal parts white vinegar and water. Soak the item, brush gently with a toothbrush, rinse and dry.

 

Jewellery Storage

• Store in an airtight box.
• Away from direct sunlight to avoid discolouration.
• Store separately from other items to reduce tarnish and to prevent chains from becoming tangled.
• In a room that is dry and is Low humidity.
