Jewelry Care
GOLD FILL
- Durable: At the core of gold fill is high quality jeweler's brass which is then coated in at least 5% 14K gold that will never rub or flake off.
- Hypoallergenic: Because gold fill does not use any nickel it is hypoallergenic and a great affordable option for those that are
sensitive to metals. - Slow/non-tarnish: Gold filled is extremely slow to tarnish and when it does it’s easily cleaned.
- Waterproof: you can wear your gold filled jewelry in the water. As long as your jewelry never comes into contact with chemicals (like those put in pools) it will remain looking like new.
STERLING SILVER
- Sterling silver is about 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper, brass, or sometimes nickel.
- Tarnishes: Because sterling silver is
an alloy it tends to tarnish. - It easily cleans.
GENERAL CARE
- If your gold jewelry begins to dull/tarnished use warm water, dish soap and dry with a soft cloth.
- Never subject any jewelry to harsh chemicals found in pools, cleaning products, and some personal hygiene products. This can discolor and strip the jewelry leaving a darkened appearance.
- To keep your jewelry lasting years, refrain from wearing it to bed, the gym, or during sport activities. Also, keep it away from extreme temperatures.
- To slow the tarnishing process, keep your jewelry in a baggie or other airtight container when not wearing it.
- For jewelry that is made with resin, avoid exposing the jewelry to direct sun for long periods of time, avoid harsh chemicals, lotions and perfumes. Keep it stored in a cool and dry place. Avoid scratching it or rubbing it with harsh fabrics or objects.
