Jewelry Care

Keep your pieces beautiful for generations — cleaning, storage, and professional maintenance guidance.

Do

  • Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or bathing — chlorine and soaps build up behind settings

  • Store pieces individually in soft pouches or lined compartments to prevent scratching

  • Clean regularly with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft toothbrush

  • Have prongs checked by a jeweller every 12–18 months — prongs loosen with wear

  • Apply perfume, hairspray, and sunscreen before putting on jewelry

  • Take rings off before handling cleaning products, especially bleach

Do Not

  • Do not use ultrasonic cleaners on any stone with inclusions, fractures, or fracture filling

  • Do not use steam cleaners on oiled emeralds or thermally sensitive stones

  • Do not wear fine jewelry in the gym — impact and sweat both cause damage

  • Do not stack rings with different hardness metals without professional advice

  • Do not store jewelry in bathrooms — humidity fluctuations loosen settings over time

  • Do not attempt to re-tip prongs yourself — always use a professional

Home Cleaning

How to Clean at Home

01

Prepare

Fill a small bowl with warm (not hot) water and add a few drops of mild dish soap.

02

Soak

Place the piece in the solution for 15–20 minutes to loosen accumulated oils and dirt.

03

Brush

Use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub under and around the setting and band.

04

Rinse & Dry

Rinse under clean running water. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth. Air-dry completely before storing.

Professional Service

Annual Check-Up

Even with perfect home care, fine jewelry benefits from an annual professional inspection. A jeweller will check prong integrity, inspect for cracked settings, re-polish if needed, and perform a professional ultrasonic or steam clean appropriate to the specific stones.

We offer free inspection and cleaning for all pieces purchased from us. Contact us to arrange a service appointment.
