care
the basics
Store your jewelry in individual soft-lined compartments to protect against scratches and prevent tangling. Keep sterling silver and gold plated pieces n a cool, dry environment to reduce tarnish. Remember that organic materials like pearls should not be stored airtight, as they require air to maintain their luster.
Metals, especially silver, are prone to oxidation. Wearing your jewellery regularly can help minimize this effect. In humid climates, it’s advisable to use silica gel packets in your storage area to further slow the oxidation process.
Be mindful to remove your jewellery when engaging in physical activity or handling harsh chemicals. Substances such as cleaning products, water, and perfumes can accelerate wear, so avoiding them will help preserve your jewellery’s beauty and longevity.
Keep It Shimmering: How to Clean Your Jewellry
To maintain your jewellery we suggest using a silver polishing cloth once a month.Gently wipe the surface with the cloth using medium pressure to remove potential tarnish and cleanse itfrom everyday residues. Exercise caution to avoid contact with any pearls or delicate gemstones.
For pieces adorned with pearls, it’s advisable to clean them with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth after each wear. For a more thorough cleaning, prepare a lukewarm solution with a small amount of mild soap, such as baby shampoo or gentle dish washing liquid. Gently apply this solution to the pearls using a soft cloth or a fine-bristled brush, taking care to handle them delicately to avoid abrasion. After cleaning, rinse the pearls thoroughly with clean water and carefully pat them dry with a soft cloth, ensuring they are completely dry before storing. Pieces with enamel can be cleaned using the same process.
