How to Clean and Care for Your Jewelry at Home
Proper jewelry care helps maintain shine, beauty, and long-lasting elegance over time. With gentle cleaning and simple everyday care, personalized jewelry can continue looking polished and beautiful for years to come.
How to Clean Sterling Silver Jewelry
Sterling silver can naturally develop slight tarnishing over time when exposed to air, moisture, or skincare products. This is completely normal and can usually be cleaned easily at home.
To clean sterling silver jewelry:
✔ Use a soft polishing cloth to gently remove tarnish and restore shine
✔ Wash gently with mild soap and lukewarm water when needed
✔ Dry completely before storing
✔ Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning products
For deeper cleaning, a silver polishing cloth designed for sterling silver jewelry works best while helping protect the finish.

Gold plated jewelry should be handled gently to help preserve its finish and shine.
Helpful care tips:
✔ Avoid water, perfumes, lotions, and harsh chemicals when possible
✔ Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or exercising
✔ Gently wipe jewelry with a soft dry cloth after wearing
✔ Store pieces separately to help avoid scratches
If gold plated jewelry becomes slightly dull or dirty, gently cleaning it with a soft microfiber cloth can help restore its appearance.
