Why Jewellery Care Matters
Essential guidelines to preserve the brilliance, structural integrity and lasting value of your exquisite jewellery.
Daily Wear Guidelines
To safeguard your jewellery against unnecessary wear and tear:
- Remove jewellery before engaging in physical activities, sports or heavy lifting to avoid impact.
- Refrain from wearing jewellery while swimming, showering or during household chores.
- Follow the "Last On, First Off" rule: Put your jewellery on after applying makeup and perfumes, and remove it before undressing.
Avoid Chemicals & Harsh Conditions
Precious metals and organic gemstones are highly sensitive to external agents. Avoid contact with:
- Cosmetic products: Perfumes, lotions, hairsprays and oils.
- Domestic irritants: Household detergents and abrasive cleaning agents.
- Environmental factors: Chlorine, saltwater and extreme temperatures.
Cleaning Your Jewellery
Routine maintenance ensures your jewellery retain their signature glow:
- Gently buff with a lint-free soft cloth after each wear to remove surface oils.
- For a deeper clean, use lukewarm water and a drop of pH-neutral soap; rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Avoid ultrasonic cleaners or abrasive materials unless specifically recommended for that item.
- Professional cleaning is advised for intricate designs and high-value investment sets.
Storing Your Jewellery
Correct storage is the first line of defense against scratches and tangling:
- Store items individually in soft-lined pouches or dedicated compartments within a jewellery box.
- Secure clasps and fastenings to prevent chains from knotting.
- Climate control: Keep your collection in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight.
Caring for Gemstone Jewellery
Climate control: Keep your collection in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight.
- Protect settings from undue pressure or sharp impacts.
- Minimize exposure to intense heat and light, which can cause certain stones to fade.
- Regularly inspect prongs and mounts to ensure stones remain securely seated.
Gold & Precious Metal Care
To uphold the finish and purity of your metalwork:
- Use a specialized polishing cloth for gentle, periodic buffing.
- Handle with care to avoid bending or distorting delicate settings.
