Jewellery is delicate works of art that deserve gentle handling. By following a few simple guidelines, you can preserve their beauty and significantly extend their lifespan.

• •Remove your jewellery before showering, bathing, or exercising.
• •Put on your jewellery last when getting dressed - after perfume and skincare.
• •Wipe your jewellery with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.
• •Store your jewellery separately to avoid scratches.

Silver is a beautiful but reactive metal that can oxidize and become dark over time. This is a natural process that many appreciate for the patina it creates, but if you prefer a shiny surface, there are simple ways to clean your silver.

Gold is a precious metal that does not oxidize, making it easy to maintain and durable. However, even gold can become dull from dirt, oils, and daily wear.

Jewellery with gemstones and pearls require extra caution. Different stones have different hardness and sensitivity, so it is important to handle them with care.

Proper storage is key to keeping your jewellery in top condition. By storing your jewellery correctly, you avoid scratches, oxidation, and tangling.

• •Store each piece of jewellery separately, preferably in a soft pouch or lined box.
• •Keep jewellery away from direct sunlight and heat.
• •Avoid humid environments like bathrooms.
• •Place a piece of chalk or silica gel in your jewellery box to absorb moisture.
• •Hang necklaces to prevent knots and tangling.
