Jewellery Cleaning & Care Tips

To preserve your jewellery’s beauty and vibrancy it is essential to take care of your jewellery correctly and to clean it often. Regular maintenance and cleaning can remove dirt, dust, and oils that can make the jewellery look dull and cause it to be damaged. Proper care can also help to prevent tarnishing, and untimely wear. At the same time this allows you to examine your jewellery, helping notice any damage or loose claws that may begin to show. This will help you address any wear before it becomes a serious issue or before stones fall out. With the correct care, your jewellery will stay looking attractive for many years.

6 Easy Steps for Jewellery Care
  1. Store your jewellery away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
  2. Avoid exposing your jewellery to harsh chemicals, such as chlorine, perfumes, and hairspray.
  3. Regularly check your jewellery for any signs of wear and tears (loose stones, clasps, or other damage).
  4. Clean your jewellery with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water.
  5. Use an old toothbrush to gently scrub away dirt and grime from your jewellery.
  6. Take your jewellery to a professional jeweller minimum once a year for a thorough cleaning and inspection.
*Note that some stones like opal can be damaged by long duration and repeated exposure to water.
