How to Care for Your Jewelry
How to Wear
- The more intentional you are about caring for your jewelry, the longer it will last.
- Remove your jewelry before doing any activity that risks physical damage.
- As a general care tip, your jewelry should be the last thing you put on before going out and the first thing you remove upon coming home.
How to Store
- When not being worn, store in a safe, dry place to protect against the elements of daily exposure.
- Store pieces separately to avoid damage.
- Ensure pieces are completely dry before storing.
- Certain metals, like vermeil and sterling silver, can be prone to tarnishing. Rather than the packaging that came with your purchase, we recommend storing your pieces in Jewelry Boxes, which are lined with an anti-tarnish microsuede fabric that makes care and cleaning even easier.
How to Clean
- Proactive maintenance is the easiest way to care for your jewelry.
- Regularly cleaning your pieces helps to avoid the residue buildup that can dull the original shine.
- To clean with the polishing cloth, gently buff the entire piece until any discoloration or marks are no longer visible.
- To clean with the jewelry care kit. Use the brush to remove dirt from finer areas and chains. Dry with a soft, clean cloth and then polish with the cloth provided.
- Ensure pieces are completely dry before storing.
Care Guides By Material
Not to be confused with regular gold plating, our vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a thick layer of 18k solid gold on sterling silver. It lasts longer than regular gold plating and provides the look and feel of gold jewelry at a fraction of the price.
What to know about wearing gold vermeil jewelry
Vermeil will naturally tarnish over time, especially when exposed to environmental factors like air pollution, moisture, and items that contain sulfur, however it is easy to restore the shine of gold vermeil jewelry with proper care and maintenance.
How to store gold vermeil jewelry
Store in a safe, dry place—such as an anti-tarnish pouch or case—with the anti-tarnish strip that came with your purchase. This will help to protect your pieces when they are not being worn.
All of our Jewelry Cases have an anti-tarnish microsuede lining for ease of care.
How to clean gold vermeil jewelry
Proactive maintenance is key. To keep tarnish from setting in, clean your pieces regularly by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth or using Jewelry Care Kit (Brush & Spray).
Please note: Polishing cloths can be abrasive, so apply gentle pressure and don’t over-polish. Do not use steam cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners on vermeil jewelry.
If using our Jewelry Care Kit, make sure you dry your jewelry using a soft cloth before storing it
