Jewelry Care Tips

It is not possible to wear something every day and have it remain unchanged without losing its shine. What plays an important role in their care and proper maintenance? Daily exposure to dust and chemicals can damage their surface. If you want to keep it for a long time, you should pay attention to three basic principles:

• proper use
• careful cleaning
• proper storage

Proper use refers to how careful you are about exposing your jewelry to perfumes, detergents, and other chemicals. For example, even in simple soaping it is good not to wear rings, especially gold-plated ones, as the plating can come off more easily. Hand creams can dull natural stones and minerals. It's also a good idea not to wear your jewelry when you exercise or do manual work.

It is recommended that you have used everything you want before wearing your jewelry. Also, it is important to take them off when you sleep, when you swim in the sea or in the pool. In general, jewelry should be the last thing you put on before you leave the house, and the first thing you take off when you return home.

Regarding cleaning them, the best option is to clean them regularly with a soft cotton cloth with gentle movements to remove any oils and sweat.

When it comes to storing the jewelry, the best solution is for each one to be protected in its own box without being all together where there is a risk of  getting tangled or scratched. Good organization and storage ensures longer life and shine to your jewelry. 

We recommend storing 14K gold jewelry in separate boxes or in special cases with fabric inside, while for 925 silver jewelry you can store them in a plastic bag, in a cool place.

By following the above tips, we can guarantee that you will not reduce their lifespan and you will enjoy them for a longer period of time. Thus, they will accompany you for a long time.
