Jewelry Care

Remember your jewelry lasts as long as you care for it. 

 

FIRST LETS GO OVER

THE METAL TYPES AVAIBLE:

Note: All of our jewelry is nickel free

​

-925 Sterling Silver-

An affordable precious metal that has a long jewelry life,

can be passed down and holds market value.

​

-10K Yellow gold-

10karat gold is an alloy that is 10 parts pure gold,
and 14 parts other metals.  
we choose to work 

with 10 karat yellow gold in order to bring you

affordable small batch made future heirlooms

​

-14K Yellow gold-

14karat gold is an alloy that is 14 parts pure gold,

and 10 parts other metals. 14K gold is a classic, timeless alloy

for jewelry. Perfect for passing down for generations

​

​

-Gold Filled- 

-only used in our permanent jewelry-

(14/20GF over a BASE metal)

Gold-filled jewelry is a solid layer of gold bounded to a base metal

 Gold filled jewelry is a great option for achieving the gold look 

while being  affordable, hypoallergenic, waterproof.

HOWEVER the base metal is not a precious metal

& the Gold filled plating CAN wear off in a minimum of 10 years if you're hard on it.

(it's still a better option than Gold Plated jewelry!

which is a thinner layer of gold over as base metal)

​

​

THE CARE:​

​

To care for your Silver Jewelry:

any tarnish on silver is not permanent

& can be easily removed 

Tarnishing is the darkening of metal

over time from being exposed to different variables.

 

-Clean it yourself at home using

hot hot soapy water,  mild soap, & a soft toothbrush.

NOTE if the jewelry has black detailing we recommend to use

a polishing cloth in lieu of  hot soapy water 

 â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹

​

​

​

​

To care for your 14K or 10 Karat Gold Jewelry:

Gold is inherently a softer metal while

gold jewelry is durable it can still be prone to daily wear. 

​

-Clean it yourself at home using

hot hot soapy water, mild soap, & a soft toothbrush. ​

NOTE if the jewelry has black detailing we recommend to use

a polishing cloth in lieu of  hot soapy water 

​

​

​

​

​

​​​To care for your gold filled permanent jewelry:

Hot soapy water and a cloth works great.

Do not polish any gold-filled/plated jewelry with a polishing cloth ever.

(polishing cloths come with compound that can strip the gold plating off faster!!)

​

​

​

While silver & 14K, 10k gold are precious metals

and precious metals are all "life proof" please still read:

As a rule of thumb you should always remember to remove any jewelry before sleeping, swimming, working out and anything of that nature.  

One reason it's recommended to not wear jewelry while doing these actives is,

the obvious reason of it can break the item but,

it can also speed up tarnishing in silver and scratches on any jewelry.
