Jewellery Care Guide: Keep Your Favourite Pieces Sparkling Always
Your jewellery deserves to shine just as much as the day you got it. Whether it’s a cherished gift, a family heirloom, or a daily favourite, proper care keeps your treasures sparkling for years to come. Follow these expert tips from Chloe’s Jewellers to preserve their beauty and brilliance.
1. Clean Your Jewellery Regularly
Dust, oils, and everyday grime can dull the shine of your jewellery. To clean it safely at home:
- Use warm water with mild soap (no harsh chemicals).
- Gently scrub with a soft toothbrush.
- Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a lint-free cloth.
"Clean jewellery sparkles not just in looks, but in how it makes you feel."
2. Store Pieces Separately
Jewellery can scratch easily when stored together. Use separate pouches, soft-lined boxes, or compartments. Keep chains untangled by hanging them or closing clasps before storing.
3. Avoid Contact with Chemicals
Always remove your jewellery before:
- Showering or swimming (especially in chlorinated water)
- Applying lotions, perfume, or hair products
- Using cleaning sprays or sanitiser
4. Handle with Care
Put on jewellery last and take it off first. Try not to pull or tug on delicate chains or settings. Be mindful when removing rings to avoid knocking stones loose.
5. Schedule Professional Cleaning
For deeper cleaning, professional ultrasonic treatments and polishing can bring back brilliance. At Chloe’s Jewellers, we offer complimentary cleaning for all our customers.
6. Special Tips for Different Metals
Different materials require different care:
- Gold: Use warm water and soft cloth. Avoid chlorine.
- Silver: Use a silver polish cloth or anti-tarnish wipes.
- Platinum: Durable, but benefits from occasional polishing.
- Gemstones: Wipe gently and avoid heat or chemicals.
