Jewellery is meant to be worn, daily and without ceremony. With a little care, your 1861 piece will last a lifetime — and then some.
Daily Wear
- Put your jewellery on last — after perfumes, hairspray, and lotions have dried.
- Remove before swimming, bathing, or vigorous exercise.
- Store pieces separately in the pouches provided to prevent scratching.
Cleaning
Wipe gently with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning, soak briefly in warm water with a drop of mild soap, brush softly with a baby toothbrush, rinse, and pat dry. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for pieces with pearls or synthetic stones.
Storage
Keep each piece in its individual pouch to prevent scratching. Store necklaces clasped to prevent tangling. Avoid humid environments — bathrooms are not friends of jewellery.
Lifetime Re-Plating
Gold plating, even in three layers, will fade with years of daily wear. We re-plate — free of charge, forever — for the lifetime of the piece. Just WhatsApp us to arrange.
