Best Practice Principle
- Most colored gems can be cleaned with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft brush.
- Soft gems such as pearls can easily scratch. Use a clean makeup brush and warm soapy water to gently clean them.
- Most jewellery pieces come in a box or pouch from us, which is a perfect place to keep them and can also be used for travelling purposes.
- Store your jewellery in a dry place and in an area with no sunlight.
- Exposure to chemicals can damage or discolour precious metals – gold, silver, and platinum – and may harm some colored gems.
- Fine jewellery should be removed before diving into a chlorinated swimming pool or before using household cleaners.
- Many colored gemstones are routinely treated to improve the appearance of colour and clarity.
- Don't wear your jewellery first and then apply lotions, perfume, or hairspray.
- Keep gold jewellery separate from silver jewellery.
- Do not use toothpaste or any home remedy that is too abrasive, as it may damage jewellery in the long run.
- Any oxidised finish is the deliberate blackening of crevices in the ornamentation of a silver object to make its decorative detail stand out more clearly.
