Caring for Timeless Craftsmanship

Caring for your jewellery starts with thoughtful everyday habits. The way you wear, store, and handle each piece not only preserves its beauty but also protects it from unnecessary wear. By following a few simple guidelines, you can extend the life of your favourite designs and keep them looking as radiant as the day you received them. This section outlines essential practices for general use and safekeeping - helping you enjoy your jewellery with confidence, whether it’s part of your daily routine or reserved for special moments.

• Put on your jewellery in the morning, remove it before bedtime.
• Avoid wearing jewellery during sports, swimming, cooking, gardening, or housework.
• Prevent scratches by keeping pieces separate in their original box or a soft pouch.
• Chains and colliers should be stored closed and flat or wrapped around a soft element to prevent tangling.
• Have jewellery with diamonds, gemstones, or pearls examined annually to ensure settings are secure.

Our best tips:

1. Give them a little shine

Normal wear can dull your jewellery over time. To keep it looking its best, you can gently clean your pieces with a soft toothbrush and tepid water. This simple routine will make a noticeable difference, keeping them shining and well-preserved. Keep in mind that gemstones require special care, so it's best to keep your gemstone jewellery dry.

2. Tuck away in a safe spot

To protect your jewellery, always store it in a secure place when you are not wearing it – whether that's a jewellery box, travel clutch, or the pouch it came in. Show your pieces a little love by removing them before gardening, exercising, or swimming, and avoid directly exposing them to rough surfaces like tools and door knobs.

3. Avoid chemicals and perfume

A little care goes a long way. Apply your perfumes and other products before you put on your jewellery. Precious materials can be sensitive to everyday products, and especially pearls and precious stones, risk becoming dull if often exposed to oils, lotions, perfume, detergents etc. Just a simple habit to keep your jewellery glowing.

4. Look after you gems

Gemstones and pearls are delicate and more sensitive than diamonds. To protect their beauty, avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals and rough surfaces that could cause scratching. Frequent exposure to water, sunlight, and heat can also dull their natural shine. Since each gem is unique, check the care tips specific to your stone.

5. Get a professional inspection

Having your jewellery professionally examined once a year, or as needed depending on wear, helps ensure its beauty and security.

To clean your jewellery at home, use lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush to gently remove everyday residue and restore shine. Normal wear can dull your jewellery over time, but this simple routine helps maintain its brilliance. Always handle your pieces with care, and keep gemstone jewellery dry, as certain stones require more delicate treatment.
