Caring For And Wearing Your Jewelry  

Here are some cleaning instructions for Sterling Silver jewelry:

1. Combine a small amount of mild soap with lukewarm water.
2. Use a small, soft toothbrush to gently scrub.
3. Rinse with clean water.
4. If dirt is hard to remove, soak jewelry in clean water for a few minutes; repeat steps 1-3.
5. Pat dry with another dry soft cloth.
6. Use a silver polish cloth to give your jewelry a final shine – also good for in-between cleanings.
7. Be sure to let completely dry before storing in jewelry bags or boxes.

Other metals: Some metals tend to turn if it comes in contact with water and unfortunately can't be cleaned  :-(

But here are some tips we hope it helps: 

• To help protect the durability and quality of your jewelry, remove your jewelry when you shower, bathe or engage in heavy exercise, particularly when swimming in the sea or a chlorinated swimming pool.
• Avoid spraying aftershave, applying creams or any other liquids directly onto your jewelry.
• Keep your jewelry away from extreme temperatures, humidity or sunlight.
• Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or environments that could compromise the integrity of your jewelry. Examples include, but are not limited to: Perspiration, perfumes, cleaning agents, chlorine, saltwater and silver polish.
• Do not store your jewelry in the bathroom where it could be exposed to wet conditions as humidity and moisture can make tarnish appear faster.
• Ideally store your pieces of jewelry separately, so that they don’t rub together or become tangled.
• To keep your jewelry looking radiant & to remove the build up of dirt & tarnish we recommend using a polishing cloth. Rub the piece in one direction rather than circular motions.
• Do not use tissue paper or paper towels to clean metals as they can cause scratching.
