It's not difficult to keep the jewelry you love in its precious form, but different stones,
pearls and metals require different care for storage and cleaning. Some stones are more
porous or softer than others and some metals may have received a patina to enhance the
jeweler's design.
To keep cleaning down to a minimum, always apply makeup and perfume prior to
donning any jewelry item. Store each jewelry item separately to avoid scratching a softer
stone/pearl with a harder stone or metal.
To avoid damaging the jewelry you love by cleaning it with inappropriate methods or
chemicals, you may find the following link useful in identifying the best way to care and
clean your valued pieces. You will also find tips for storage that will insure a long life for
your gems.
