The Forget-Me-Not jewellery collection is crafted for daily wear and to be treasured. With proper care and affection, your pieces will maintain their beautiful shine and bring you joy.
Storage: Always keep your Forget-Me-Not jewellery in its designated box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches, and to avoid tangling, always facten chains. Store each piece separately, as mixing different metals can lead to tarnishing and can also affect gold plating.
Environmental Considerations: Extreme temperatures can damage your jewellery, so keep it away from high humidity and heat to prevent tarnishing. Ideally, store your jewellery in a dark, cool, and dry location when not in use. If you plan to store your jewellery for an extended period, it's advisable to clean it occasionally to maintain its shine and prevent oxidation.
Swimming and Daily Care: Remember to remove your jewellery before swimming, as water can be harmful. Try to avoid contact with water, lotions, perfumes, cosmetics, detergents, and chemicals. We also suggest taking off your jewellery before sleeping to prevent rubbing and tangling.
Gold and Gold Layered Jewellery
If you notice build-up, gently wash your jewellery using a mild soap and lukewarm water. Afterward, dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth, but refrain from using a polishing cloth, as it may damage the gold finish.
Sterling Silver Care
For sterling silver, a polishing cloth is ideal for removing any tarnishing. For built-up dirt, a gentle wash with soap and lukewarm water will effectively cleanse your pieces.
With these tips, your Forget-Me-Not jewellery will continue to shine and delight for years to come!
