Jewelry Care

Thoughtful care helps fine jewelry retain its beauty through everyday wear. Use these recommendations as a general guide and contact us if a piece requires individual attention.

Everyday care

• Put jewelry on after lotions, perfume, hairspray, and cosmetics have dried.
• Remove pieces before swimming, exercising, showering, cleaning, or using harsh chemicals.
• Handle delicate chains and stone settings gently; avoid pulling, bending, or impact.
• Wipe jewelry with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth after wear.

Cleaning solid gold

For light cleaning, use lukewarm water, a small amount of mild soap, and a very soft brush. Rinse carefully and dry completely with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners and polishing materials that may scratch the surface.

Diamonds and gemstones

Gemstones differ in hardness and sensitivity. Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaning unless a qualified jeweler has confirmed that the method is safe for the specific stone and setting. When in doubt, use only a soft, slightly damp cloth.

Storage

Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined compartment to reduce scratching and tangling. Fasten chains before storing them and keep jewelry away from excess heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.

Professional inspection

Have frequently worn rings, earrings, and stone-set pieces inspected periodically by a qualified jeweler. Stop wearing a piece if a stone feels loose or a clasp or setting appears damaged.
