• Gold And Diamond Jewellery

To keep your jewellery dust-free, store it in a compartmentalized jewellery box. It is also essential to take special care of valuable items like diamonds and other precious stones.

• Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, chlorine, hair sprays, perfumes and makeup.

• Adorn jewellery only after having applied make-up and perfume as the residues can affect the shine and charm.

• While travelling and storing your jewellery (sets, bangles), use proper fitted boxes. Improper handling might result in breakage and damage.

• Check studded jewellery regularly, for the prongs holding the gemstones may have worn out which would allow the gemstones to loosen and fall off.

• While cleaning the pieces and ensure that they are shining for longer, always use warm non-detergent based soapy water and wipe it dry with a soft cloth.

Pearl Jewellery

Take off your pearl rings before applying hand and body lotions. Wipe your pearls with a soft, lint-free cloth as soon as you take them off.

• Keep pearls away from abrasive cleaners and cloths. They can wear away the nacre coating, leaving behind a plain looking bead.

Do’s:

• Always keep jewellery away from any kind of direct or indirect heat. Heat can affect the back of the stone, which is not heat proof causing a change in color and shape

• Avoid any kind of moisture and closed environments for a long period of time (e.g. bank lockers, jewellery boxes which are made of satin or leather cloth) as lack of air will cause an oxidizing process on gold & mostly on 24k kundan edge & its peripheries

• Always keep two pieces of jewellery separate in individually zip locked bags (as per the size of the piece), followed by insertion in a plastic box with separate partitions for each piece. This will help create vacuum and block the entry of moisture thereby preventing corrosion and keeping the piece intact even in closed environments

• As polki and kundan pieces are very prone to moisture, ensure they are always stored in a dry area

• Do visit your jeweller at least once in a year to have your precious sets checked for any signs of wear
