✿ Jewelry Care Instructions ✿
- Store Properly:
- Keep your jewelry in a dry, cool place.
- Store pieces separately in soft pouches/ ziplock pouch provided or jewelry boxes to avoid scratches and tangling.
- Avoid Moisture & Chemicals:
- Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or engaging in any activity involving water.
- Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, hairspray, and cleaning products, as chemicals can tarnish metals and damage gemstones.
- Always put on jewelry last when getting ready.
- Regular Cleaning:
- Gently wipe jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove oils and dirt.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, especially on softer stones like pearls.
- Polishing:
- The metalware (e.g. crimp covers, clasps, chains) used in the jewelry are either stainless steel or 925 silver. They do tarnish over time as they are not pure silver (e.g. appearance becomes yellowish in colour). Tarnishing occurs when the metal pieces come into contact with the sulfur containing air surrounding us. Therefore, it is important to keep your jewelry in an air-tight pouch like the ziplock bag provided after cleaning to slow down the tarnishing process.
- For tarnished silver or gold, use a specific jewelry polishing cloth (provided with every purchase of jewelry) or a non-abrasive metal cleaner.
- Be cautious with gemstones as they can be damaged by some cleaners.
- Handle with Care:
- Avoid dropping jewelry, especially delicate or stone-set pieces, as this can cause breakage.
- Avoid pulling onto the jewelry as it is delicate and cause breakage as well.
- When wearing rings or bracelets, be mindful of tasks like lifting heavy objects or using chemicals that could damage them.
Following these steps will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your jewelry! ⊹₊⟡
