Take regular activities into account when choosing your jewelry. Avoid wearing them on the beach, at the swimming pool, or when playing sports to avert nicks and scratches. Wearing your jewelry should also be avoided when doing housework or gardening.

Ensure that you remove your jewelry before bed, when showering or when washing your hands.

Avoid letting your jewelry be exposed to cosmetics, hairspray, or perfume. Always put on your beautiful jewelry pieces as a final touch, after applying make-up and styling hair

- All Sterling Silver will tarnish over time (to be honest with you) and should be polished occasionally with a soft polishing cloth.
- Silver jewelry that is regularly used typically needs less care, so we encourage you to wear and enjoy your silver jewelry every day.
- An oxidized finish is used for some of our jewelry pieces. This finish is the deliberate blackening of crevices in the ornamentation to make the decorative details stand out more clearly. The finish can be removed by overzealous cleaning and polishing

Our Freshwater Pearl Jewelry
Never clean your freshwater pearl jewelry in an ultrasonic or steam cleaner. Gently clean each pearl using a soft, damp cloth, microfiber jewelry cloth or chamois to remove surface debris that can accumulate when you wear it. You should do this as soon as you take off your pearl jewelry and before storing it.
As with all jewelry, if you don't care for maintain your pearls, you risk the chance of discoloration and yellowing. Avoid contact with perfume and and chemicals in general. Also skin chemistry, which can change depending upon the weather, can be a factor if your skin is prone to acidity. Acidity will cause the pearl to lose its luster over time.
