Maintenance guide
Stainless steel jewelry is prized for its strength and resistance to corrosion. However, proper care is essential to maintain its shine and appearance over time. Here are some practical tips for caring for it.
Regular cleaning
Use warm water and mild soap
Prepare a mixture of warm water and mild soap, then gently clean your jewelry with a soft cloth or soft-bristled toothbrush.
Rinse & dry immediately
Run your jewelry under clean water to remove any soap residue.
Wipe them with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid water marks.
Avoid chemicals
Perfumes, lotions and household products
These substances can tarnish your jewelry. Always apply them before putting on your accessories.
Swimming pools and salt water
Remove your jewelry before swimming, as chlorine and salt can affect its shine.
Proper storage
Store them separately
Keep each piece of jewelry in a fabric pouch or dedicated box to prevent scratches.
Reduce humidity
Add desiccant packets (silica gel) to your jewelry boxes to prevent humidity.
Occasional polishing
Polishing cloth
Use a cloth specially designed to revive their shine.
Avoid abrasive products
These could scratch or damage the metal surface.
Regular checks
Inspect clasps and fasteners
Check that the clasps are working properly and that no chains or fasteners show signs of wear or weakness.
Examine the moving parts
Make sure that any hinged parts, such as bracelet or earring hinges, are not loose or damaged.
