A Guide to Keeping Your Precious Pieces Sparkling

  1. Take one piece of jewelry and place it gently into the jewelry cleaner dip tray. Dip the tray into the cleaning solution, making sure the piece is fully submerged, and let it soak for about two minutes.

  2. Use the cleansing brush provided to carefully remove any buildup or dirt, paying attention to small crevices and intricate details.

  3. Once you're done cleaning, carefully remove the dip tray from the container. Be sure to rinse it thoroughly with water, but remember to keep your drain closed to prevent any accidental loss of jewelry!

  4. After rinsing, gently pat your jewelry dry with a lint-free cloth, ensuring all excess moisture is removed.

  5. To restore its shine, use the soft outer polishing cloth provided. Gently buff the surface of your jewelry until it gleams like new.

  6. For metals that may have tarnished or discolored over time, use the inner white cloth provided. Rub the cloth gently over the metal surface to remove any tarnish or discoloration. Please note: this step is recommended for metals only and should not be used on precious stones or pearls.

By following these steps, you'll keep your jewelry looking its best and ready to dazzle at any occasion.

  1. Stay Active, but Safeguard Your Jewelry: Remember to take off your jewelry before diving into physical activities like running, crossfit, or gardening. Even the most durable pieces can get damaged during vigorous movement or exposure to sweat and dirt.

  2. Chemicals Can Be Tough on Jewelry: Whether you're washing your hair or applying makeup, it's best to remove your jewelry. Harsh chemicals in shampoos, soaps, lotions, and hairsprays can dull the shine of your favorite pieces. Also, steer clear of household cleaners and foods containing sulfur, as they can also cause harm.

  3. Mind the Elements: Prolonged exposure to chlorine in pools or hot tubs can be detrimental to your jewelry's longevity. Remember to remove your jewelry before taking a dip, and store them safely away from humid environments.

  4. Handle with Care: When it comes to polishing your jewelry, opt for gentler materials like microfiber cloths. Avoid using abrasive materials like towels or tissues, as they can scratch the surface. Store your jewelry in a dry, airtight space, and give them a gentle wipe-down before stowing them away.

  5. Keep It Clean: Regularly clean your jewelry with mild soap and warm water, patting them dry gently afterward. Avoid rubbing them vigorously, as this can cause damage over time.

  6. Know Your Body Chemistry: Sometimes, individual body chemistries can interact with metals, causing unexpected reactions. Factors like pregnancy, medications, or hormonal changes can affect your body's alkalinity or acidity, potentially impacting your jewelry. It's a bit of a wild card, so pay attention to how your body reacts.
