  • Store each piece separately to avoid scratches and tangling

Cleaning Your Jewelry

Gold Jewelry

  • Mix warm water with mild soap or dishwashing liquid
  • Soak jewelry for 10-15 minutes
  • Gently scrub with a soft-bristled brush (baby toothbrush works well)
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water
  • Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth
  • Polish with a jewelry polishing cloth for extra shine

Silver Jewelry

  • Use a silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish
  • For heavy tarnish, use a silver cleaning solution
  • Create a paste with baking soda and water for gentle cleaning
  • Avoid using toothpaste as it can be abrasive
  • Store in anti-tarnish bags or with chalk to prevent oxidation

Gemstone & Diamond Jewelry

  • Use lukewarm water with mild soap
  • Soak for 20-30 minutes, then gently brush around the stone settings
  • Rinse carefully and dry with a soft cloth
  • For delicate stones (pearls, opals, emeralds), wipe with a damp cloth only
  • Never use ultrasonic cleaners on fragile gemstones

Artificial/Fashion Jewelry

  • Wipe with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth
  • Avoid water contact as it may damage the plating
  • Do not use chemical cleaners
  • Apply a clear nail polish coating to prevent tarnishing
  • Store in airtight containers with silica gel packets

Storage Guidelines

  • Separate Storage: Store each piece in individual pouches or compartments to prevent scratching
  • Dry Environment: Keep jewelry in a cool, dry place away from humidity
  • Jewelry Box: Use a fabric-lined jewelry box with compartments
  • Anti-Tarnish Strips: Place anti-tarnish strips in silver jewelry storage
  • Chains & Necklaces: Hang or lay flat to prevent tangling and kinking
  • Pearls: Store separately as they can be scratched by harder gemstones

What to Avoid

Water & Moisture

Remove before showering, swimming, or exercising. Chlorine and saltwater can damage jewelry.

Heat & Sunlight

Prolonged exposure can fade colored gemstones and weaken metal settings.

Chemicals

Avoid perfumes, hairsprays, bleach, chlorine, and household cleaners.

Physical Impact

Remove jewelry during sports, gardening, or heavy lifting to prevent damage.
