How to care ?

The 3 most crucial aspects you should be aware of when cleaning your jewelry are :

1. Protect your jewelry from harsh chemicals like household cleaners and chlorine, as they can cause damage to metals and gemstones.

2. Ensure proper storage by keeping each piece separate in a soft pouch or a lined jewelry box to prevent scratches and tangling. For silver pieces, consider using anti-tarnish strips.

3. Remove your jewelry before activities such as swimming, exercising, or household chores to prevent damage from both chemicals and physical impact

1. Polishing tissue

We recommend this brand to all our clients, Hagerty's tissues are known to last years to give a fresh shine to your jewels whenever you feel it's time ! Be careful it can be an addiction.. ! :)

2. Ultrason cleaner

The ultrasonic bath is a meticulous jewelry cleaning process that involves immersing jewelry items in a specially formulated solution within the ultrasonic machine. High-frequency sound waves generated by the machine create tiny bubbles in the cleaning solution. These bubbles implode upon contact with the jewelry's surface, effectively dislodging dirt, grime, and other contaminants from intricate details and hard-to-reach areas. This results in a thorough and gentle cleaning that restores the shine and brilliance of the jewelry.

However, it's important to note that not all stones can withstand this cleaning method. Certain gemstones, such as emeralds, opals, and pearls, may be sensitive to the ultrasonic vibrations. Therefore, it's crucial to exercise caution and consult with a professional jeweler to determine the suitability of the ultrasonic cleaning process for specific jewelry pieces.
