Every jewel deserves a little loving and care! Most of our jewels are made of 925 sterling silver or gold plated over 925 sterling silver.
Sterling silver is a material that is prone to tarnish and turn dull over time. However, different to other materials, this layer of tarnish can be removed. To keep sterling silver shiny, keep away from water and harsh chemicals such as detergent, lotions, and perfumes. Grit and dirt may collect on top of your jewels. To clean sterling silver jewelry, use gentle toothpaste, or mix baking soda and water and wrap jewelry in aluminium foil for 5-10 minutes then gently wipe to reveal a polished surface.
Gold-plated jewels may lose its shine or darken over time. Simply use a dry, clean cloth to polish the jewels and it shall regain its shine. However, avoid exposing gold jewelry to water, sweat and other chemical substances (e.g. shampoo, chlorine or perfume) or it may experience fading of color. It is not possible to regain its shine if the gold layer is worn off. Therefore it is absolutely important that you take precautions to care for your gold plated jewels.
To preserve the condition of your gorgeous pieces, always avoid contact with chemicals and moisture‚ such as hair spray, perfume‚ lotions‚ household cleansers, pool and sea water. All jewelry should be taken off before showering/swimming/exercising. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe your jewelry pieces after wearing them to remove natural body oils, sweat or residue.
