How to care for silver, pearls, and gemstones: simple and gentle

Briefly: 925 sterling silver, natural pearls, and gemstones retain their beauty longer with delicate care. Remove jewelry before showering, swimming, exercising, and washing hands; apply cosmetics and perfumes before putting on jewelry; and for cleaning, simply wipe them periodically with a soft, dry, non-abrasive cloth.

Jewelry made from noble materials has a special character.
925 sterling silver, natural pearls, and gemstones retain their beauty much longer when given delicate care.

Following simple rules helps preserve the shine of the metal, the clarity of the stones, and the natural texture of the pearls for many years.

Avoid contact with water and excessive moisture

Even high-quality 925 sterling silver can gradually lose its luster under the influence of water and moisture, and pearls can change their surface.

It is recommended to remove jewelry before:

• showering or bathing
• visiting a sauna or swimming pool
• washing hands or dishes
• engaging in sports

Moisture can penetrate microscopic crevices between jewelry components and, over time, accelerate the natural tarnishing of silver or affect the structure of stones.

Cosmetics and perfumes — before jewelry

There's a simple rule of jewelry etiquette: jewelry is the final touch to your look.

Cosmetic products, perfumes, and creams may contain components that affect metal and stones.
They can gradually alter the surface's luster, make stones less transparent, or affect the natural structure of pearls.

Therefore, it is recommended to apply cosmetics and perfumes before putting on jewelry.

This small ritual helps preserve their impeccable appearance.

Delicate cleaning

To maintain the natural shine of 925 sterling silver, it is sufficient to periodically wipe the jewelry with a soft, dry cloth.

The best options are:

• microfiber
• a special silver polishing cloth

It is not recommended to use abrasive agents or rough cloths, which can leave micro-scratches on the metal surface.

For additional care, specialized products designed specifically for 925 sterling silver can be used.

Delicacy of pearls

Pearls are one of the most delicate natural materials in jewelry art.

They can react to:

• dry air
• direct sunlight
• chemical compounds in cosmetics

Therefore, it is recommended to put on pearls after all cosmetic procedures and remove them before sleep, storing them separately from other jewelry.

The main rule

The best jewelry is that which is worn.

925 sterling silver reacts to skin warmth, movement, and touch.
It is during wear that the metal retains its natural luster and the living energy of the material.

Jewelry is created not to remain in a box, but to be a part of your life.

Gentle care and regular wear allow them to retain their beauty for many years.
