Jewellery Care

A little regular care helps keep your jewellery looking its best.

Everyday care

  • Remove jewellery before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
  • Apply perfume, hairspray and lotions before putting jewellery on.
  • Avoid household cleaners, chlorine, salt water and prolonged moisture.
  • After wearing, gently wipe each piece with a clean, soft, dry cloth.
  • Store pieces separately in a dry pouch or jewellery box to reduce scratching and tangling.

Material-specific care

Sterling silver: Use a silver polishing cloth gently when needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Gold-plated and silver-plated jewellery: Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Do not use polishing dips or abrasive cloths, as these can wear the plated finish.

Oxidised jewellery: Do not use silver polish, as it can remove the intentionally darkened finish.

Pearls, beads and stones: Keep away from chemicals and moisture, and wipe gently without soaking.
