Jewelry care
Storing
Apart, flat and dry, so nothing scratches or tangles.
Every piece on its own
Diamonds are the hardest natural material and will scratch other stones and gold. Keep each piece in its own soft pouch or lined compartment, never loose together in a drawer.
By piece
- Chains: fasten the clasp and lay them flat, or hang them, so they never knot.
- Pearls: flat, in a soft pouch, never in airtight plastic; they need a little moisture.
- Cufflinks: each pair together in its box, stone faces apart.
- Silver: in an anti-tarnish pouch or with an anti-tarnish strip.
Where
Somewhere cool, dry and dark. Avoid the bathroom, where humidity and heat work on metal and soft stones.
Travelling
A padded travel roll with separate pockets. Carry fine jewelry with you, never in checked luggage.
A clean and check, on us
Bring any piece in by appointment. We clean it, check every setting, and tell you if anything needs attention.
