Jewelry is more than just an accessory—it’s an investment and often holds sentimental value. To keep your favorite pieces looking as brilliant as the day you got them, follow these simple care tips.
1. Store Properly
- Keep jewelry in a soft-lined box or individual pouches to prevent scratches.
- Store silver jewelry in anti-tarnish pouches or cloths.
- Keep pieces separate to avoid tangling and damage.
2. Clean Regularly
- Use a soft cloth to wipe down jewelry after wearing.
- For deeper cleaning, soak jewelry in warm, soapy water and gently brush with a soft toothbrush.
- Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage gemstones and metals.
3. Protect from Damage
- Remove jewelry before swimming, exercising, or doing household chores.
- Avoid exposing jewelry to perfumes, lotions, and hairspray, which can cause tarnishing.
- Take rings off before applying hand sanitizers, as some formulas can dull finishes.
4. Professional Maintenance
- Have your jewelry professionally inspected and cleaned at least once a year.
- Get prongs checked on rings to prevent losing gemstones.
By following these tips, your jewelry will remain stunning for years to come!
