Jewelry Care – How to Protect Natural Stones and Precious Metals

Jewelry made from natural stones and precious metals such as silver, gold-plated metals, or 14-karat gold (in both yellow and rose tones) requires proper care. With the right attention, your favorite necklaces, rings, and earrings will maintain their shine and beauty for years.

 

How to Wear Jewelry Without Damaging It

  • Remove jewelry before sleeping, bathing, exercising, or doing household chores.

  • Avoid contact with water, perfumes, cosmetics, chemical agents, or hand sanitizers – they can cause metal tarnishing or stone discoloration.

  • Keep stones away from prolonged sun exposure, as it can fade their natural color.

 

How to Store Jewelry

  • Store jewelry in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight.

  • Use airtight containers like zip-lock bags or soft-lined jewelry boxes to slow down oxidation and avoid scratches.

 

Natural Aging of Metals

  • Silver may oxidize and develop a patina, which can be removed with gentle cleaning.

  • 14-karat gold (yellow and rose) is durable, but daily wear may slightly dull its shine – polishing will restore it easily.

 

How to Clean Jewelry

  • Wipe your pieces regularly with a soft cloth.

  • For deeper cleaning, use specialized products made for silver, gold, or specific types of stones (e.g. amber, nephrite, opal).
