How can I properly care for my jewellery and keep it in perfect condition?
Remove your jewellery before exercising, showering and swimming. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions or hair products. Chlorine, salt water can permanently damage or discolour them.
Do not use harsh chemicals, bleach, oil, or polishing cloths, since this can affect the finishing.
Avoid extreme humidity or heat, as this may potentially cause tarnishing. To make your silver jewellery last longer, it should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry place. Keeping your silver jewellery in its original package when it is not being worn will keep out the air that causes oxidation.
Your jewellery should always be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off when dressing. This is because jewellery is particularly susceptible to damage from the effects of chemicals present in perfume, hairspray, make-up, nail polish remover, body oils, sun tan lotion and deodorant.
Please consider removing your gold-plated jewellery before going to bed to prevent the buildup of body sweat and oils, which are known to accelerate jewellery tarnishing.
How long will my gold plaque jewellery last in normal wearing conditions?
Your jewellery is 18K plated gold with 2 micron anti-tarnish, which is the normal amount recommended. With regular wear, it will last you approximately 2- 3 years for earrings and necklaces.
Please keep in mind that regular wear means that you wear your few times a week. If you wear your jewellery every day, it may last for 1-2 years.
How to clean gold-plated jewelry ?
For regular cleaning, just use a soft cloth and wipe the pieces regularly.
For tarnished gold-plated pieces, you can rub them gently with a soft cloth and a small amount of mild soap and water to clean them. Then dry them with a microfibre cloth.To remove any dirt embedded in the crevices, use a cotton swab or soft-bristled toothbrush to remove it.
If you are still not confident in cleaning your gold-plated jewellery, you’ll want to bring it to a professional cleaner.
