Between snowy walks, holiday cooking and party festivities, your jewellery needs extra TLC. Protect your diamonds and metals by removing rings before baking or cleaning.
Chemicals from cleaning products can dull metals and cloud gemstones. After wearing, gently wipe jewellery with a soft cloth to remove oils and perspiration.
Store pieces separately in soft pouches to prevent scratches. For travel, carry jewellery in a padded case so it doesn’t get damaged in transit.
Professional cleaning is recommended once a year, especially for pieces with intricate settings. If you’ve just received a new piece for Christmas, consider having it insured.
FAQ:
Can I wear jewellery while swimming in the pool or spa?
No—chlorine can corrode metals and weaken prongs. Remove jewellery before swimming or using hot tubs.
