JEWELERY CARE


18K GOLD

To prevent damage to your white, yellow or rose gold jewelry, we recommend you store it safely away from other pieces to avoid unnecessary scratches. Gold should be kept away from harsh chemicals, such as cleaning and beauty products, to avoid discoloration to the metal.

All our 18ct white gold has been plated with a white rhodium finish, this is a layer of plating applied to the metal to emphasize the bright white finish of the metal and can be especially susceptible to discoloration when brought into contact with chemicals. Should this occur, you can bring these into our showroom where we can offer you a rhodium plating service to bring back that white shine.

SILVER

Silver jewelry will naturally tarnish over time, the amount of tarnishing (oxidation) that occurs is dependent on the skin and care habits of the wearer. We recommend cleaning your jewelry using lukewarm soapy water and a soft brush and then finish by polishing with a soft cloth to prevent the natural process of tarnishing.

 

CARING FOR YOUR PRECIOUS STONES

DIAMONDS

Diamonds are well known for their hardness on the Mohs scale, however, they can still be chipped or cracked when knocked and care should be taken to avoid harsh contact when worn. Diamonds can be easily cleaned using a small amount of liquid soap in hot water and dried using a lint-free cloth to remove any dirt and grease to bring back its shine.

EMERALDS

Emeralds are infamous for their history and the deep luscious green color is one that cannot be matched by another stone. They are even more precious due to the care that needs.

SAPPHIRES & RUBIES

Porous gemstones, including amber, turquoise, opals and pearls can be stained by oils or liquids, so it’s important to avoid contact with face creams, lotions and household chemicals. Wash porous gemstones in lukewarm water and polish with a lint-free soft cloth.
