Jewelry Care

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR JEWELLERY ?

Our jewellery is made from a brass base, or 925 silver.

These metals are very malleable and are regularly used to create costume jewellery. 

They are then gilded in France with 14-karat gold.

Jewellery gilded with 14-karat gold may tarnish and flake over time, so requires special daily attention. Avoid wearing them when you do the washing-up or other household chores, take them off before showering and keep them in their original packaging. 

Your skin can considerably change the appearance of your jewellery, a skin that is too acidic will "eat" the plating of a piece of jewellery, and the same with heavy perspiration (sport).

A pretty silver chain will blacken when in contact with the humidity of your bathroom for example and/or with your skin if it is damp from heat.
