JEWELLERY CARE TIPS

Jewellery is made to last forever but it still needs tender loving care. Please follow these tips to ensure it is kept in optimal shape.

 

Gold & Silver Jewellery care

Silver and Gold vermeil items should be kept in a clean, moisture-free environment to prevent tarnish. .


Storage

Store items separately, or wrapped in a soft cloth, to avoid pieces scratching each other.

Please store your jewellery carefully trying to avoid touching each other and too much air exposure. 


All jewellery

Remove jewellery when bathing, gardening, and cleaning, and do not wear in a swimming pool or hot tub.

Clean jewellery using a soft polishing cloth to remove tarnish and restore shine.

Your jewellery is particularly susceptible to damage from the effects of chemicals present in perfume, hairspray, make-up, nail polish remover, body oils, sun tan lotion and deodorant. All of these can make pieces prematurely tarnish.

Earrings can often react to your natural body chemistry making the posts appear black. This will not harm your skin.

If you are slightly allergic to your earrings, or get a rash or itchy reaction when wearing them, try switching to wearing solid gold jewellery or try putting a little bit of clear nail varnish on the post and butterfly. When it eventually wears off just re-apply it.
