Proper care is essential in order to keep your gold or silver plated jewellery looking at its best. Remember that silver, gold and brass are soft metals that can scratch and dent. In addition semi precious stones can be chipped or / and shattered if struck against a hard surface with force. Finally, harmful chemicals and long periods of direct sunlight can discolour or cause damage and fading to your jewellery.
Store your jewellery in the original packaging or a soft pouch to avoid scratches.
Put on jewellery last when dressing and take off first when undressing.
Avoid swimming or bathing while wearing gold or silver plated costume jewellery, and remove rings when washing your hands. Swimming pools that contain chlorine and salt water can tarnish your jewellery.
Remove rings before you apply hand creams, body creams and soap.
Put jewellery on after applying makeup, perfumes and hairspray.
