Lean back and let our Care Guiding Spirit walk you through the basics. If treated right, your jewelry will last forever.
Daily Use
- We know you want to wear your jewelry all the time, trust us we do too. But the most important step in taking care of your jewelry is to take it off at the right times!!!!
- You should not workout or lift anything heavy with your jewelry on. Solid gold jewelry is very strong but it can still bend out of place if enough pressure is applied to it. Not to mention that stones can break if they are accidentally struck or dropped.
- You should also take your jewelry off before cleaning. This includes washing the dishes, cleaning the floors, showering and doing the laundry; too many hard surfaces here. Or better yet, get someone to clean for you.
- We know your beauty routine is important to you! While it will not cause any harm to your jewels, if you still want to keep your gemstones and gold nice and shiny, it's best to keep your jewelry away from perfume, sprays, cleansers, and lotions.
Cleaning
- From our experience there are two levels of cleaning, the kind you can do at home and the kind that you have done professionally.
-
For at home cleaning: Use a mild soap, a soft brush (an old toothbrush will work well), and lukewarm water to gently clean your jewelry. This method works well to restore the sparkle and luster of your jewelry, and can be done as often as you like!
-
For professional cleaning: You can take your jewelry to a local goldsmith or jeweler who can re-polish it and bring it back to its original condition. You should choose a jeweler who is trustworthy and if possible comes with a recommendation.
- Lastly, cleaning your jewelry with an ultrasonic machine at home is not recommended, and should only be carried out at a professional jeweler.
Jewelry Insurance
- Our jewelry comes with a 1-year warranty however this is not the same as having insurance on your designs. For this reason we strongly recommend insuring your fine jewelry; just as you would purchase insurance for other valuable items.
- For more information on our warranty please see our warranty policy.
Rhodium Plating
- Rhodium plated Jewelries will need to be replated on average every 1-2 years, depending on use.
- A service which we recommend be performed by a local and trusted jeweler.
- Rhodium plating over time will wear off due to daily use, this is a completely normal part of the plating process.
- You can make sure your plating lasts for as long as possible by keeping your jewelry dry, and making sure it does not come into contact with any chemicals; including but not limited to: perfume, soaps and lotions.
- The plating on daily use rings will fade faster than other jewelries due to wear and friction.
Gemstone Care
- While gemstones are known for their incredible hardness, it does not mean that they are incapable of breaking. Even diamonds can crack or break if an impact or drop is strong enough.
- Additionally there are certain cuts and types of gemstones that are fragile and need to be worn with certain precautions.
- Our best advice for jewelry containing gemstones is to wear it with mindfulness and simply to remove it before engaging in any physical activities.
