Jewelry is an expression of personal style,or a reminder of a significant moment in life. We don’t want your special moment to fade, so here are some instructions on how to keep your jewelry in pristine condition. Follow our guide on how to maintain and care for your precious pieces.
Understanding your jewelry:
Different types of jewelry require different care techniques. Gold, silver, platinum, diamonds, pearls, and gemstones each have unique properties that determine how they should be maintained.
At minimalist Avenue we are only using assorted materials to create the best experience for our customers. All our jewelry is made of stainless steel, a type of surgical steel, making it safe for everyone to use. It’s a strong and durable material that won’t tarnish or create allergic reactions.
Regular cleaning:
Regular cleaning keeps jewelry sparkling and removes any buildup of dirt and oils. When cleaning your pieces, don’t use chemical cleaners on your jewelry, instead use a lint free cloth for a light and delicate cleaning.
Proper storage:
Storing jewelry correctly prevents damage and tangling. Make sure you store your pieces in a cool dry place, like a jewelry box or pouch. Remember: moisture can tarnish metals and damage stones.
Use a jewelry box with multiple compartments, or keep the individual pieces in soft cloth bags to prevent tarnishing and scratching. You can also prevent tangling by hanging necklaces individually on hooks or a jewelry tree.
Be mindful of what you’re doing:
Minimize damage by being mindful of how and when you wear your jewelry.
Take off jewelry during physical activities, gardening, or cleaning to prevent damage and exposure to harsh chemicals. Take off your pieces before bed, to avoid ruining them during the night.
Avoid direct contact with skin and hair products. Apply lotions, perfumes, and hair products before putting on jewelry to avoid chemical buildup and damage.
Your precious pieces are going to keep their best condition if contact with water is limited. Remember to remove your jewelry before taking a shower, swimming or getting into the water to preserve them the best.
Taking the time to properly care for your jewelry can significantly extend its life and preserve its beauty. With this brief guide you should be prepared on how to take care of your beautiful pieces!
