How to care for and clean your cherished jewelry?
Taking a dip in the ocean? Sounds amazing! Running a marathon? Stunning! Give your jewelry a break—they’ll be right here waiting for you. Our pieces are crafted from high-quality vermeil, which is five times thicker and much more durable than standard gold plating. However, to keep them looking their best, we recommend avoiding exposure to chlorine, acids, salt water, and harsh chemicals. These substances can damage your jewelry and shorten its lifespan.
Cleaning steps
Wipe Frequently
Regularly wiping your jewelry with a soft, dry cloth helps remove oils and buildup that can dull its shine. A gentle buff keeps your pieces looking fresh and prevents tarnishing.
Occasional Deep Clean
For a deeper clean, soak your jewelry in warm, soapy water for a few minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before wearing or storing.
Keep Away from Harsh Chemicals
Exposure to chemicals like perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products can damage the gold layer on your vermeil jewelry. To preserve its finish, always remove your pieces before applying beauty products or handling household cleaners.
Store Your Jewelry Properly
Keep your jewelry in a cool, dry place to prevent tarnishing and discoloration. Store pieces separately in pouches or compartments to avoid tangling and scratches.
The Golden Rule
Jewelry goes on last before you leave and comes off first when you get home. Think of it like the cherry on top—only fancier. This simple habit protects your pieces from lotions, perfumes, and snags, keeping them shining longer and free from unnecessary wear. A little care goes a long way in preserving their beauty.
