18K GOLD

Gold-plated jewelry features a layer of gold bonded over a base metal, offering the look of solid gold at a more affordable price. While beautiful, the gold layer is delicate and requires gentle handling to avoid wear.

  • Avoid contact with water, sweat, perfumes, and harsh chemicals, as these can cause tarnishing.
  • Gently clean with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dirt and oils afterward.
  • Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box to prevent scratches and fading.

STERLING SILVER

Sterling silver is a high-quality metal used for its lustrous shine and smooth finish, however, silver will naturally tarnish over time when exposed to air and moisture, therefore regular cleaning is essential to maintain its original state.

  • Store silver jewelry in a cool, dry place, ideally in an anti-tarnish pouch or cloth.
  • When not in use, keep sterling silver away from perfumes, lotions, and other substances that may cause damage.

FRESHWATER PEARL

Freshwater pearls, cultivated in rivers and lakes, are cherished for their soft colors, subtle luster, and variety of shapes. Their unique forms result from developing naturally inside mussels without a round nucleus, making each pearl one of a kind. Durable and elegant, they add timeless charm to any jewelry collection. Preserve the timeless elegance of your pearls with these care tips:

  • After each wear, wipe pearls gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove oils and residue.
  • Keep pearls away from perfumes, hairsprays, and cleaning agents, as they can damage their delicate surfaces.
  • Store in a breathable cloth pouch, as airtight containers can dry out pearls and diminish their natural sheen.

NATURAL STONE

Natural stone can have unique colors, textures, and patterns, which add individuality to each piece. Its moderate hardness and stunning color make it ideal for statement pieces.

  • Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh chemicals. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
  • Protect from chemicals, extreme temperatures, and impacts. Although durable (6.5-7 on the Mohs scale), it can chip if dropped.
  • Store separately in a soft pouch or padded jewelry box to prevent scratches.
