Made to last generations. Fine jewelry rewards a little care, and a few simple habits will keep your piece looking exactly as it did the day it arrived.
Last thing on, first thing off. Keep it away from chemicals, chlorine and knocks.
Warm water, a drop of mild soap and a soft brush. Nothing harsh, nothing abrasive.
Each piece in its own soft pouch, apart from the others so nothing scratches.
Jewelry should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off. Perfume, lotion, hairspray and household cleaners can dull metal and film over stones, so let those settle before your piece goes on.
Take it off for the gym, gardening, cleaning and swimming. Chlorine and saltwater are hard on gold alloys and can loosen settings over time, and a hard knock is the most common cause of a bent prong or chipped stone.
For most pieces, soak for a few minutes in warm — not hot — water with a drop of mild dish soap, brush gently with a soft toothbrush behind and around the stone, rinse, and pat dry with a lint-free cloth.
Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or a lined box. Diamonds and harder stones will scratch softer stones and metals if they're kept loose together. Lay necklaces flat or hang them so chains don't tangle or kink.
Once a year, have your piece looked over by a jeweler — prongs, clasps and settings loosen gradually with wear, and catching it early protects the stone. We're always happy to inspect and clean any piece we've made; just reach out.
