Client care
Caring for your jewellery
Fine jewellery is durable, not invincible. A little routine keeps a piece looking as it did on the day it left the bench.
Daily habits
Jewellery on last, off first. Perfume, hairspray, hand cream and chlorine dull a polish faster than wear does. Remove rings for the gym, gardening and washing up.
Cleaning at home
Warm water, a drop of unscented washing-up liquid and a soft baby toothbrush behind the stones. Rinse, then dry on a lint-free cloth. Never use ultrasonic cleaners on emeralds, opals, pearls or any treated stone.
