Our maintenance advice
- Remove your jewelry before showering or washing your hands. Wait until your skin is dry to put them back on.
- Remove them before bed and store them in their box. Choose their case over jewelry boxes where they will tend to scratch more easily.
- Wear perfume and makeup before wearing your jewelry, the alcohol present in perfumes can oxidize the pieces.
- The acidity of perspiration can also alter your creations, don't forget to remove them before an activity: sport, gardening...etc.
- In summer, remember to remove your jewelry before going to the beach or swimming pool and hiking.
Clean your jewelry
Your jewelry may develop a patina over time, especially for silver-based jewelry, this is completely normal. We recommend cleaning your jewelry when using toothpaste. Use a soft brush and warm soapy water to remove deposits (salt water, chlorine, sunscreen oils). Then rinse them with fresh water and dry them with a soft, dry cloth.
