Jewelry Care Guide

Do's and Don'ts When Wearing Your Jewelry

Do’s
  • Use a Jewelry Cleaning Cloth Regularly: For daily maintenance, a specialized jewelry cleaning cloth can help keep your pieces looking their best and remove tarnish.
  • Store Jewelry Properly: Keep jewelry in a dry, cool place, ideally in individual pouches or a lined jewelry box to prevent scratches and tangling.

    Put on jewelry last: Always put on your jewelry after applying makeup, perfume, hairspray, and lotions. These products contain chemicals that can tarnish and dull your jewelry.

    Remove Jewelry Before Activities: Take off jewelry before swimming, exercising, or engaging in household chores to avoid exposure to chemicals and physical damage.

  • Check for Loose Stones and Settings: Regularly inspect your jewelry for any loose stones or settings. Addressing minor issues promptly can prevent more significant damage or loss.
Don’ts
  • Avoid Wear Jewelry During Physical Activities: Avoid wearing jewelry while working out, doing strenuous activities, or engaging in sports to prevent damage and potential injury.

    Avoid Use Abrasive Cleaners: Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials when cleaning your jewelry, as they can scratch and damage the surfaces.

    Avoid Expose Jewelry to Extreme Temperatures: Extreme heat or cold can affect the integrity of gemstones and metals. Store jewelry in a stable environment to avoid these issues.

    Avoid Wear Jewelry While Sleeping: Wearing jewelry to bed can lead to tangling, bending, or other damage. Remove pieces before sleeping to maintain their condition.

    Avoid Skip Professional Cleaning: While at-home care is important, professional cleaning can reach areas you might miss and provide a thorough clean that helps keep your jewelry in top shape.

How To Clean Your Jewelry

1. Cleaning Solid Gold Jewelry

For most gold jewelry, a gentle cleaning routine is all you need to maintain its shine and beauty. Follow these simple steps:

  1. Mix the Solution: Combine a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water in a small bowl.

  2. Soak: Place your jewelry in the solution and let it soak for 5–10 minutes to loosen dirt and oils.

  3. Brush Gently: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to carefully clean hard-to-reach areas, such as under prongs or around engravings.

  4. Rinse and Dry: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

    Tip: Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cloths, as they can scratch or dull your jewelry’s surface.

2. Cleaning Gold-Plated Jewelry

Gold-plated pieces require extra care to preserve their delicate gold layer. Please follow these gentle steps to keep them shining beautifully:

Avoid Abrasive Materials: Never use hard or sharp cleaning tools, brushes, or rough cloths, as they can scratch or remove the gold plating.

  • Use Mild Soap and Water (No Soaking): Do not soak gold-plated jewelry. Instead, dampen a soft cotton swab or cloth in a mild soap-and-water solution and gently wipe the surface.

  • Rinse Quickly and Dry Thoroughly: Rinse briefly with cool water to remove any residue, then pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid rubbing, as excessive friction can wear away the plating.

 Tip: Store gold-plated pieces separately in soft pouches to prevent scratching and prolong the plating’s lifespan.

Special Care For Some Gemstones

When wearing Opals, Moonstone, Moss Agate, and Black Rutilated Quartz, gentle care is essential. These gemstones are more delicate and require special handling to maintain their natural beauty.

  1. Gentle Cleaning: Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap water. Avoid abrasive brushes or harsh cleaning agents.

  2. Separate Storage: Store them separately from harder gemstones to prevent scratches.

  3. Avoid Heat and Chemicals: Keep away from high heat, strong sunlight, harsh chemicals, perfumes, and hairsprays.

  4. Protect from Temperature Changes: Sudden temperature shifts can cause internal fractures, especially in opals.

  5. Humidity for Opals: Opals are sensitive to dryness — store them in a cool, stable environment and keep them slightly moist (e.g., wrapped with a damp cloth) to prevent cracking.

  6. No Ultrasonic Cleaners: These gemstones should never be cleaned with ultrasonic or steam cleaners.

 Tip: For long-lasting brilliance, wipe your gemstone jewelry after each wear to remove oils and residue.


How To Store Your Jewelry

Proper storage plays a crucial role in preserving your jewelry’s shine, preventing scratches, and maintaining its structural integrity.

  1. Separate Storage: Store each piece separately to avoid scratches and tangling. Use individual pouches, soft cloth bags, or separate compartments in a jewelry box lined with soft fabric. The simplest and safest way is to keep your jewelry in the box it arrived in.

  2. Avoid Moisture: Keep your jewelry in a cool, dry place away from humidity and direct sunlight. Moisture can lead to tarnishing or dullness over time.

  3. Avoid Wooden Boxes: Do not store jewelry in untreated wooden boxes. Certain types of wood release natural acids that can react with metal and accelerate tarnishing.

  4. Use Anti-Tarnish Strips: For silver jewelry, place anti-tarnish strips or cloths in your storage box to help prevent oxidation and discoloration.

 Tip: Before storing, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth to remove oils and moisture, keeping it clean and brilliant between wears.
