How To Make Sure Your Jewellery Always Sparkles

Shine bright like a diamond

Taking proper care of your accessories will help them last longer – you made the investment so why not make it worth your while? Here are some quick and easy tips on how to clean and care for them so that you'll be able to keep them around forever.

Gold

Keep your gold sparkling by simply soaking them in a shallow dish of mild washing detergent and warm water. Use a soft toothbrush to scrub any hard to reach areas and dry thoroughly with a polishing cloth before you carefully put them away.

Silver

Fun fact: the more you wear your silver jewellery, the less it will tarnish. Store it in an airtight plastic bag so no moisture can get in, and give it a quick polish with a soft cloth before each wear.

Opals

These delicate stones can be sensitive to changes in climate, like extreme temperatures and high humidity. Take special care when wearing them and avoid contact with soap, water and household cleaners.

Pearls

Real pearls are sensitive to the chemicals found in most cosmetics, so if you plan on accessorising with pearls, make sure that they’re the very last thing you put on before you go (like literally before you step out the door).

Brass

Brass jewellery is known to darken with wear so don’t be too concerned when this happens. If need be, invest in a brass cleaner that you can find at the supermarkets, or try a little dab of toothpaste on a soft toothbrush.
