care for your jewellery

To ensure your cherished pieces remain as beautiful as the stories that inspire them, proper care is essential. Here's how to care for your jewellery, taking into account various materials:

Sterling Silver:

  1. Store Properly: When not in use, store your sterling silver jewellery in an airtight bag or jewellery box to prevent tarnishing.

  2. Keep It Dry: Remove your silver jewellery before swimming or bathing to prevent contact with chemicals that can cause tarnish.

  3. Polish Regularly: To restore shine, use a soft cloth or a specially formulated silver polishing cloth. Gently rub the jewellery to remove tarnish.

  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from household chemicals, perfumes, and cosmetics, as these can accelerate tarnishing.

  5. Wear with Care: Put your jewellery on last when getting dressed to avoid contact with lotions and sprays.

9 Carat, 18 Carat, 22 Carat and 24 Carat Gold:

  1. Store Safely: Store your gold jewellery in a dry, cool place. Use a soft pouch or a separate compartment in your jewellery box to prevent scratches.

  2. Clean Gently: Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush to clean your jewellery. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft cloth.

  3. Limit Exposure: Avoid exposing your gold jewellery to harsh chemicals, including chlorine and cleaning products, which can damage the metal.

  4. Polish as Needed: If your jewellery loses its lustre, you can use a jewellery polishing cloth designed for gold to restore its shine.

Semi-Precious Stones:

  1. Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to clean semi-precious stones. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could scratch the stones or remove their natural lustre.

  2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your semi-precious stone jewellery away from chemicals, including acids and strong cleaning agents.

Pearls:

  1. Last On, First Off: Pearls are delicate and should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off. They can be easily damaged by cosmetics, lotions, and perfumes.

  2. Gentle Cleaning: Wipe pearls with a soft, damp cloth after wearing to remove any surface oils or dirt. Avoid submerging them in water.

  3. Re-String as Needed: Pearl strands may need to be restrung periodically to prevent stretching or breakage. Consult a professional jeweller for this task.

Remember, the care of your jewellery depends not only on the metal but also on the stones and pearls it incorporates. With the right care, your jewellery will continue to shine as brilliantly as the legends that inspire them. Enjoy your pieces from towards another world and wear them proudly as symbols of your unique style and spirit.
