HOW TO TAKE CARE OF EACH MATERIAL
18K GOLD PLATED JEWELRY
What is Gold-Plated?
Gold-plated jewelry involves a thin layer of gold applied over a base metal. While durable, this plating can wear off with repeated use and exposure.
Care Instructions
- Avoid direct exposure to harsh chemicals, such as perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products, as they can tarnish the gold finish.
- Store in a cool, dry place and avoid humid environments to prevent the gold from fading.
- Gentle cleaning is recommended—use a soft cloth to wipe down the jewelry after each wear to remove any oil or dirt.
- Avoid vigorous rubbing, which could remove the gold plating.
FRESHWATER PEARLS
What are Freshwater Pearls?
Freshwater pearls are natural gemstones formed within freshwater mollusks. Known for their smooth surface and soft luster, they are a timeless addition to any jewelry collection.
Care Instructions
- Keep away from harsh chemicals, including perfumes and hairsprays, as these can damage the pearl’s luster.
- Clean with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and oils after each wear. Never use harsh cleaning agents on pearls.
- Store pearls separately in a soft pouch or jewelry box to prevent scratching.
ACRYLIC PEARLS
What are Acrylic Pearls?
Acrylic pearls are synthetic pearls that mimic the appearance of natural pearls but are lighter and more durable.
Care Instructions
- Avoid exposure to chemicals, as they may cause discoloration or damage the surface.
- Clean with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the pearl's surface.
- Store in a soft bag or box to prevent any potential impacts or abrasions.
SWAROVSKI STONES
What are Swarovski Stones?
Swarovski stones are high-quality crystals known for their exceptional clarity and brilliance. They are often used in fine jewelry due to their diamond-like sparkle.
Care Instructions
- Avoid exposure to water, lotions, and chemicals, as they can dull the crystal’s brilliance and damage the setting.

- Store in a separate compartment to avoid scratching or chipping.
