The Care and Cleaning of your Handmade Jewels

Pearls Pearls are delicate and must be cared for regularly. Keep them free from oils and perfumes. Wipe them with a soft cotton cloth after each time you wear them. Inspect the strand regularly to ensure their are no fraying strands. Have your pearls restrung every 2-3 years.

Silver and Gold-filled Metal Keep your metal chains free from oils and perfumes. The frequency of cleaning will depend on how often you wear a piece of jewelry. Each piece of jewelry comes with a cloth that can be used until it is black. Use it on the metal components of your jewelry to keep them shining bright all the time.

Semi-Precious Stones Each stone is assigned a hardness level. Some are safe in ultasonic cleaners and others will be destroyed. Check to see which of your stones are safe for the cleaner. otherwise wiping them with a soft cloth helps to keep them brilliant.
