General Jewellery Care Tips


 

1. Store Carefully

  • Keep each piece separate—use soft cloth pouches or a jewellery box with compartments to avoid scratches and tangles.

  • Avoid direct sunlight, excessive heat, and humidity as they can dull metals and gemstones.

  • For delicate layered chains, consider placing pendants inside small zip-lock bags, with clasps sticking out—this prevents tangling.

2. Clean Gently

  • After each wear, wipe jewellery with a soft, dry cloth to remove oils and residues.

  • Be especially gentle with pearls, whose organic nature makes them sensitive—avoid immersing them in water, and instead wipe with a soft, damp cloth.

3. Avoid Chemicals & Moisture

  • Remove jewellery before swimming, bathing, exercising, or applying perfume, body lotion, or hairspray—chemicals can tarnish metal and damage stones.

  • Chlorine (in pools or hot tubs) can cause irreversible damage, especially on plated items.

4. Handle With Care

  • Be mindful when putting on/removing jewellery—don’t tug at delicate chains or clasps.

  • Inspect your jewellery every 6–12 months for loose stones or worn clasps, and get them professionally repaired if needed.
