4 Essential Jewellery Care Tips to help your Jewellery last
Jewellery has a unique way of making us feel special. Whether it's a sentimental piece passed down through generations or a trendy accessory that completes your outfit, taking care of your jewellery is crucial to preserve it's beauty over time.
At Bexie Accessory Co, we understand the importance of durable, long-lasting jewelry that remains as beautiful as the day you first wore it. Here, we'll share four essential jewelry care tips to help you keep your favorite Bexie Accessory Co pieces looking their best for years to come.
- Store Your Jewelry Properly:
Proper storage is the foundation of jewellery care. While our jewels are durable enough to be worn 24/7, there are times when you might like to take them off - and you’ll need to keep them safe in the meantime.
To prevent tangling, scratching and the annoying possibility of losing one of your favourite earrings you might like to keep your jewels in a jewellery box, individual small bags or sealed pouches (like the PVC ones your Bexie Accessory Co jewels arrived in). Alternatively, you might like to display them safely on a jewellery holder.
- Clean with Care:
Our jewels are designed to be low maintenance and easy to care for, but regular cleaning is recommended to maintain the luster of your jewellery. We recommend quickly wiping your jewels down with a very soft microfibre cloth once a week to maintain cleanliness. For times when your jewellery needs a deeper clean, simply use warm soapy water and a very soft toothbrush to remove built up dirt and grime. Make sure to rinse and dry your pieces thoroughly to prevent water spots.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals:
Yes, our jewels are durable, BUT they aren’t indestructible. Harsh chemicals, such as household cleaners, and even perfumes and hair sprays can, over time, damage the metal and gold plated finish of your jewellery. To ensure your pieces stay in tip top condition for many years to come, avoid direct contact with cosmetics and perfumes and remove jewellery before it is likely to come into contact with any chemicals, such as when cleaning.
- Avoid Abrasive Surfaces:
Like we said; durable not indestructible. Even our durable gold plating will scratch if treated roughly enough, so please avoid your jewellery coming into contact with rough abrasive surfaces such as when cleaning, gardening or undertaking other physical labor.
Your jewellery is an investment, and by adopting these 4 tips into your daily routine you can ensure that your Bexie Accessory Co jewels continue to bring you joy for years to come.
