Jewellery Care

Jewellery care

Your beautiful new jewellery is precious and should be treated as such.

In order to be able to enjoy a long life from your jewellery, follow these tips:

·         Store your jewellery out of direct sunlight and in separate boxes or pouches when not wearing it.

·         Take your jewellery off before swimming, washing the dishes, exercising, gardening, or doing heavy physical activity.

·         Keep cosmetics (perfume, hairspray, lotions) hand sanitiser and household cleaners away from your jewellery.

·         The finer the band of a ring, the more gentle you need to be with it.

Ultrasonic cleaning should be left to a professional as some gemstones can be damaged by this process

Opals are softer than most other gemstones meaning more care needs to be taken when wearing them. They also contain a small percentage of water, and because of this they need a little bit of extra care:

·         Opals don’t like sudden temperature changes or extreme heat (saunas, tropical climates)

·         Opals cannot be put in an ultrasonic cleaner. We recommend you bring your opals to us once a year for a professional clean, or you can do it yourself with a clean, DRY, soft cloth.
