If you’re looking for some extra tips on how to take care of Jewelry while at home without going to a jewelry shop we have some tips for you.
- We always suggest taking off your jewelry and putting them in a jewelry box or case when showering, sleeping, gardening, putting on lotion, or any other strenuous activities. This will help keep them clean and slow them from wearing down.
- If your jewelry is plated take it off while using hairspray, perfume, and nail polish removers as these can damage the plating and make it wear faster.
- Never clean your jewelry in a sink. Always clean in a bowl or something similar just in case precious gems and such fall out.
- When cleaning all you need is a non abrasive and detergent soap. Soak your jewelry for 10-15 mins and clean it off with warm water and a soft brush or cloth. Never use strong cleaning chemicals.
- For precious stones such as opal, pearls, etc. Wash very carefully with water and take a soft cloth and lightly clean/dry them.
- For colored gems use warm soap and water and a soft cloth or brush.
