How to best care for your jewellery

Clean your jewellery at home with warm, mildly soapy water and a very soft brush - we recommend a soft toothbrush and a dash of fairy liquid. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

When it comes to storage, jewellery’s worst enemy is other jewellery! Keep your items separate by wrapping them in tissue or cloth when travelling, or stored in separate compartments of a jewellery box. This includes separating each earring in a pair.

Remove rings and bracelets before doing any task that might knock or rub them, e.g. boxing or gardening.

Save the best for last. Put jewellery on after applying makeup, perfume, and hair products.

Make it click! If you have bought a pair of our hoops, please make sure you listen for the click to ensure they are properly closed. 

As part of our after-care service we recommend a yearly check-up on your jewellery so just drop us a line when you’d like them serviced and we’ll coordinate the rest.
