Jewellery Care
To keep your jewellery looking and feeling as great as it did the first day you wore it here are a few tips and tricks that i have picked up over the years.
- Put your jewellery on after using cosmetics, such as hairspray or perfumes to avoid contact with substances and chemicals which may cause damage.
- Take care to protect all your pieces that are finished with semi-precious stones and glass from any hard impact.
- Watch out for pool swimming because chlorine and related chemicals can severely discolor and damage your jewellery.
- Protect all your jewellery from abrasive surfaces, harsh chemicals,extreme sunlight and temperatures.
- You may not be aware but all precious metal jewellery tarnishes overtime when exposed to body oils and other natural elements and thus requires occasional cleaning.
- The best way to clean your jewellery regularly is with a soft polishing cloth. This will remove light tarnishing.
- Please do not use cleaning solutions, polishes and/or tarnish removal on pearls or semi-precious stones. This will damage the stone and make it loose its power and colour.
- To keep your jewellery in the best condition, when not wearing it, I recommend keeping it in an airtight bag, away from direct sunlight and hot environments.
