Jewelry Care

To keep your jewelry sparkling and in great shape, be sure to take them off before:

⊛ BATHING & SWIMMING

⊛ APPLYING PRODUCTS such as makeup, perfume, lotion or sunscreen - these will coat your jewelry & dull its shine.

⊛ USING HARSH CHEMICALS such as cleaning products, bleach or chlorine - chemicals are very harsh on gold and gemstones!

⊛ GARDENING & BAKING - or any activity where grime can get into your jewelry's small crevices.

⊛ EXERCISING OR HEAVY LIFTING - or any strenuous activity where jewelry can be misshapen and stones can loosen.

To clean your jewelry at home, you can gently scrub with mild dish soap, warm water and a toothbrush. This method works great for most jewelry. To clean pearls or other sensitive stones such as tuquoise or opals - skip the soap and gently use warm water and your finger.

All jewelry, no matter how well made, will need periodic check-ins. Naturally with daily wear, prong settings can wear down or loosen over time.

Take a close look at your jewelry every few months to make sure the prongs are in good shape and the stones are tight.
