JEWELRY CARE
Cleaning
Clean your jewelry regularly with a soft cloth to remove dirt, oils, and fingerprints.
Use a gentle soap and lukewarm water for most metals and gemstones — avoid harsh chemicals.
For silver, you can use a silver polishing cloth to prevent tarnish.
Avoid ultrasonic cleaners unless you’re sure your jewelry is safe for it (some stones like opals, pearls, and emeralds can be damaged).
Water & Chemicals
Keep pieces in a dry, cool place — humidity can tarnish silver and damage some stones.
Store each piece separately to prevent scratching, ideally in soft pouches or a lined jewelry box.
Avoid direct sunlight for long periods — some gemstones can fade or crack.

Wearing
Put on jewelry last when getting dressed to avoid snagging or contact with makeup & sprays.
Remove rings before lifting weights, gardening, or other physical activities to prevent bending or scratching.
Be careful with delicate chains and clasps — don’t tug or pull on them.
Maintenance
Take valuable or sentimental jewelry to a professional for regular check-ups — they can tighten loose stones or repair worn settings.
Restring pearls periodically if worn often, since the thread can stretch or weaken over time.
