Ultimate ways to protect and preserve your jewelleries for long.
How to Keep Your Precious Pieces Radiant?
Jewelry tells stories, holds memories, and complements every moment. But to keep it shining, it's essential to care for it thoughtfully. Here are our best practices to help maintain the beauty and brilliance of your pieces, from diamonds to pearls, gold to gemstones.
Cleaning Tips!
Each material has unique needs, so follow these specific tips to avoid dullness or damage:
Gold - A gentle soap-and-water solution is your friend. Mix mild dish soap in warm water, soak your jewelry for 10-15 minutes, and softly scrub with a soft brush. Rinse well and dry with a lint-free cloth.
Silver - Over time, silver can tarnish. To restore its shine, use a silver-polishing cloth or a baking soda paste (just mix a bit with water). Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Diamonds - Diamonds are resilient but can lose their sparkle due to oils or dust. Soak in soapy water, then gently brush with a soft toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and air-dry.
Gemstones - Gemstones vary in hardness and sensitivity. For softer stones like pearls or opals, avoid water soaking and instead use a damp, soft cloth.
Avoid any harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasives, which can harm both metals and stones.
Storage Tips!
Remember, when you’re not wearing your pieces, store them well to prevent scratches, tangles, and tarnishing.
- Use a lined jewelry box or soft pouches to protect each piece individually.
- Avoid storing in direct sunlight or humid places, as moisture can lead to tarnishing.
- For necklaces and chains, hanging them separately can help prevent tangling and stress on the links.
Maintenance Tips!
Even with regular care, jewelry benefits from professional maintenance. Visiting a jeweler annually can help ensure settings are secure, stones are firm, and pieces stay polished.
Before Applying Products - Avoid wearing jewelry while applying lotions, perfumes, or hair products. Chemicals can tarnish metals and cloud gemstones.
Wear with Care - Remove pieces before physical activities, like gardening or working out, to prevent scratches, bends, or loss of stones.
Mind the Water - Chlorine and salt water can damage and discolor metal and gemstones, so always take off your jewelry before swimming.
Follow these simple steps and keep your cherished pieces glowing and ready to shine on every occasion.Â
