Our collection of bracelets and necklaces is meticulously crafted from a range of premium materials, including sterling silver, gold, gemstones, gold-plated, rhodium-plated, and stainless steel. To ensure that your treasured jewelry retains its luster and beauty for many years to come, we offer the following comprehensive care guidelines.

Gemstone Jewelry Care

Most colored gemstones can be effectively cleaned with a simple mixture of warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap, using a soft brush such as a toothbrush. However, use caution when cleaning crystals as they are sensitive to both heat and hot water.

Sterling Silver

  • Use a special silver polishing cloth or lint-free cloth to gently clean your sterling silver jewelry.
  • This cloth not only prevents tarnishing but also protects the surface of the jewelry from potential scratches during cleaning.
  • Avoid silver cleaners and chemicals as they have the potential to damage your precious pieces.
  • To prevent oxidation and tarnishing, store your jewelry in a sealed container or jewelry box.

Gold Plated

  • Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean your gold jewelry.
  • Gently rub the surface to remove any buildup and restore its natural luster.
  • To prevent scratches, store your gold-plated items in a soft material, such as a velvet-lined jewelry case.
  • If the plating begins to wear off, most jewelers can provide a reasonable replacement service.

Rhodium Plated

  • Clean rhodium-plated jewelry with a soft cloth and mild dish soap.
  • Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately to prevent mineral buildup or water stains.
  • Do not use silver or gold cleaners, toothpaste, ammonia-based cleaners, or other chemicals as they may damage the plating.

Stainless Steel

  • Despite its durability, stainless steel can tarnish if not cared for properly.
  • Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild dish soap.
  • Follow the grain of the steel to avoid scratching.
  • Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
  • Use a polishing cloth to remove any remaining dirt and to enhance the shine.

Solid Gold

  • Gold is resistant to tarnishing, but can lose its luster if dirt accumulates.
  • Clean gently with a soft cloth, mild dish soap and water.
  • A soft brush or toothbrush may be useful to reach hard-to-reach areas.
  • Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth.
  • If desired, a gold polishing cloth can be used to add an extra layer of luster.

Additional Tips

1. Daily care of sterling silver includes protecting it from exposure to elements such as salty air, chlorine, sulfur, moisture, perspiration, makeup, household cleaners and harsh chemicals. To reduce tarnishing, follow the guidelines outlined in the original text.

2. For fashion jewelry, maintain its condition by keeping it dry and free of tarnish. Avoid wearing it during the activities mentioned in the original text, and store it appropriately, ideally in a zippered bag or wooden box.
