Every piece in our collection is crafted with premium 925 sterling silver and finished with 18K gold plating. To preserve your jewelry’s luster, structural integrity, and natural beauty for years to come, please follow the care guidelines below.

Gold Plated Sterling Silver Care

Our gold-plated sterling silver jewelry combines the durable weight of solid 925 sterling silver with the warm, luxurious finish of 18K gold plating. While designed for regular wear, the plated surface is delicate and requires mindful handling to prevent premature fading and tarnish.

Remove Before Water Exposure

Always take off your jewelry before handwashing, showering, bathing, or swimming. Chlorine, mineral deposits, and prolonged moisture contact will accelerate plating wear, trigger tarnishing, and dull the gold finish over time.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Remove jewelry before using household cleaners, hand sanitizers, alcohol, perfumes, hairsprays, lotions, and cosmetics. These substances can corrode the gold plating, discolor the silver base, and permanently reduce shine.

Take Off During Physical Activity

Do not wear jewelry during exercise, sports, heavy lifting, or manual work. Sweat and body oils speed up tarnishing, while impacts and friction can bend settings, loosen prongs, chip gemstones, or scratch the plated surface.

Handle Gently

Avoid dropping pieces or knocking them against hard surfaces, as this may cause chipped stones, bent prongs, and permanent scratches to the gold plating.

Gentle Cleaning

Clean pieces lightly with a soft lint-free cloth and mild, fragrance-free soap diluted in lukewarm water. Rinse briefly and pat dry immediately. Never use abrasive polishes, scrubbing pads, or ultrasonic cleaners, as these will strip or scratch the gold layer.

Proper Storage

Store each piece individually in a soft fabric pouch or compartmentalized jewelry box when not worn. Keep away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperatures to slow tarnishing and prevent tangling or surface scratches.

Gemstone Care Instructions

Each gemstone has unique hardness, composition, and sensitivity. Stone-specific care will protect color, clarity, and brilliance long-term. Below are guidelines for gemstones featured in our collection:

Moss Agate

Moss agate is a durable semi-precious stone defined by its delicate natural inclusions.

  • Protect from sharp impacts and sudden temperature changes, which can cause internal cracking.
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild soapy water; do not use ultrasonic or steam cleaners, as they may damage the stone’s internal patterns.
  • Keep away from strong acids and chemicals to prevent discoloration of the moss-like inclusions.

Moonstone

Moonstone is a medium-hardness stone with natural cleavage, making it prone to chipping and cracking.

  • Shield from hard impacts, drops, and rough handling.
  • Avoid contact with perfumes, cosmetics, and household chemicals, which can dull the stone’s signature shimmering adularescence.
  • Wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth; do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Store separately from harder gemstones to prevent surface scratches.

Moissanite

Moissanite is an extremely durable stone with exceptional brilliance, second only to diamond in hardness.

  • While highly scratch-resistant, still protect from sharp, forceful impacts to avoid edge chipping.
  • Clean regularly with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove oil buildup and restore sparkle.
  • The stone itself is safe for ultrasonic cleaning; however, avoid ultrasonic cleaning for plated settings to protect the gold finish.
  • Keep away from prolonged exposure to bleach and strong acids.

Sapphire

Sapphire is one of the hardest and most wear-resistant precious stones, well suited for daily wear.

  • Resistant to scratches and daily abrasion, but avoid extreme force or sudden temperature changes to prevent fracturing.
  • Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush; professional ultrasonic and steam cleaning are safe for the stone itself.
  • Keep away from strong acid and alkaline chemicals to preserve surface luster.

Pearls

Pearls are soft, porous, and highly sensitive organic gemstones.

  • Never expose to water, perfume, hairspray, lotion, or household chemicals, as they will discolor and damage the pearl’s nacre surface.
  • Wipe gently after each wear with a soft, dry or lightly dampened cloth.
  • Store separately in a soft pouch to avoid scratching; do not seal in airtight plastic, as pearls benefit from mild ambient humidity.
