When cared for properly, jewellery can last a lifetime. Follow the below care guide to ensure your pieces stay beautiful.

For Solid Gold and Sterling Silver jewellery

• Avoid wearing in water, while exercising, or sleeping - as it can lead to damage. Pool chemicals can react with the alloys in the metal. Cold water can also cause your fingers to shrink - and you don't want to lose your rings in the pool or ocean!
• Avoid wearing jewellery when applying cosmetics, perfumes or lotions. The chemicals in these products can react with your jewellery. 9ct Solid Gold contains alloys, which can react with exposure to certain products. 
• Regularly clean your jewellery with warm, soapy water (dish soap is fine) and a soft toothbrush. Doing this regularly will remove build up of dirt, skin cells, and residue of products such as makeup. 
• Always store your pieces in a dry, safe place and avoid tangling together chains and pendants. 
• Never store when wet. 
• Sterling Silver will shine brightly after using a polishing cloth. 
• For pieces with gemstones, avoid knocking the jewellery against hard surfaces - such as a ring against a table, or when putting your jewellery down. 

 Other tips

• Always open and close clasps on chains and hoops gently. These mechanisms can be vulnerable to forceful hands or pressure. When opening and closing huggies, ensure you are only placing pressure on the very top of the clasp, and not the body of the huggie.
