Is your jewellery looking dull, tarnished or even too tangled to wear? Caring for and storing your jewellery correctly will help it to look its best as long as possible.
To keep your gold-filled and sterling silver jewellery looking shiny and new for years, here are some care tips and advice.
Top jewellery care tips:
- Apply beauty products and perfume before you put your jewellery on
- Remove jewellery before swimming in the sea or pool
- Store jewellery away from heat, sunlight and air
- Store individual pieces separately, to avoid tangling and scratches
- Store in a zip lock bag
STERLING SILVER JEWELLERY
Sterling silver jewellery can tarnish when not worn (this can appear as dark or black marks). Tarnish marks can easily be removed with a jewellery polishing cloth - a purchase that is well worth it! You can also avoid tarnish by storing silver jewellery away from air (for example: in a zip lock bag). Don't use abrasive cleaning products on silver jewellery, as this can scratch it.
GOLD FILL JEWELLERY
Our gold fill jewellery might have a dainty and delicate appearance, but it is very durable and mostly tarnish resistant. It can be polished up with a microfibre cloth and washed gently in soapy water, to remove any build up of creams etc.
To do this, fill a small bowl with warm water and dish washing liquid and place the jewellery in the bowl. Use a cloth or toothbrush to gently clean the jewellery and dry well afterwards.
