HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF MY JEWELLERY?

To maintain your jewellery at its best condition, regardless of the material, even solid gold and silver, regular upkeep is needed. Jewellery with proper care is unlikely to tarnish for a long time. Avoid contact with cosmetics, perfumes and body products. Moisture, chemicals, chlorine and salt water may damage and tarnish your jewellery overtime. Please also note that one's body chemistry may affect how your jewellery wears, this is due to the fact that some people's perspiration & body oils are can be more acidic than others. This may cause discolouration or oxidisation to your jewellery. To clean your jewellery, please refer to the care instruction below according to the material. When not wearing jewellery, it’s recommended to store them in the pouches provided in a cool place away from sunlight, heat and moisture. Read More.

WHAT MATERIALS ARE YOUR JEWELLERY MADE OF?

Gold Filled

Gold filled jewellery has a thick layer of solid gold bonded over the base metal, generally 5% of the weight of item is composed of solid gold. Therefore, gold-filled jewellery is more resistant to tarnish but appear to be softer. Gold-filled pieces can still tarnish, but it takes special circumstances for that to happen, like excessive and rough use. To keep gold fill jewellery shiny, keep away from sweat, salt water and harsh chemicals such as detergent, lotions, and perfumes. Take care when wearing during exercise or heavy activity as it could deform easily. To clean gold-filled jewellery, we recommend putting them under water and gently rub them with a soft brush or cotton tip. Gold filled jewellery is suitable for every day wear, just like solid gold, but without the price tag.

Gold Vermeil

Gold vermeil pieces usually contain 0.5-1% of solid gold electroplated to S925 sterling silver base. Gold vermeil is good for fashion jewellery and good for those with sensitivity to nickel, brass or copper present in gold plated jewellery. Gold vermeil jewellery usually display a lighter gold colour because the base metal is silver. Over time it may fade to a beautiful light gold tone. To clean gold vermeil jewellery, we recommend using soft cloth, avoid water, sweat, moisture, lotions and perfume.

Gold Plated

Gold plated product is usually suitable for fast fashion jewellery. Hence it’s meant to be more affordable but not as long lasting due to the fact that the gold composition is relatively low. Over time, it will faded and the original colour of the base metal will reappear. To take care of gold plated pieces, avoid water, sweat, moisture, lotions and perfume.

Sterling silver

Sterling silver is a material that is prone to tarnish and turn dull over time. However, unlike other base material, this layer of tarnish can be removed. To keep sterling silver at its best condition, keep away from water and harsh chemicals such as detergent, lotions, and perfumes. Grit and dirt may collect on top of your sterling silver jewellery, to clean them, use gentle toothpaste, or mix baking soda and water and wrap jewellery in aluminium foil for 5-10 minutes then gently wipe to reveal a polished

I HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN, HOW DO I CHOOSE MY JEWELLERY?

Most of our jewellery is made from hypoallergenic materials such as sterling silver and gold filled. Gold filled jewellery is much more durable and friendly to sensitive skin as it contains a much thicker layer of gold. Gold vermeil jewellery would be another good option for sensitive skin too as the base material is sterling silver. If you have sensitive skin, we strongly recommend you to double check the individual product page for detailed material breakdown before placing an order.
