Long lasting jewelry is important to us! We choose all the metals we use with care to make sure that they are both hypoallergenic and tarnish resistant. Normal wear can be expected, but here are some tips to help them stay in the best condition.

14k & 18k Gold Filled- This material is resistant to wear and tarnish, but will oxidize over time when exposed to the elements. To avoid this, we recommend removing jewelry before exercising or showering. Also, try to use lotions and fragrance products before putting your jewelry on. Use a soft cloth to gently polish. Do not scrub or rub roughly. It’s best practice to store in a dry place. A zip lock bag works great!

.925 Sterling Silver- This material is resistant to wear and tarnish, but it will oxidize over time when exposed to the elements. To avoid this, we recommend removing jewelry before exercising or showering. Also, try to use lotions and fragrance products before putting your jewelry on. You can keep them looking pristine by polishing with a silver cloth. It’s best practice to store in a dry place. A zip lock bag works great! 

316l Stainless Steel- This is one of our most wear & corrosion resistant metals. It does not oxidize or fade easily. To keep them looking pristine try and avoid storing in a damp place, and wipe them with a cleaning cloth to help them shine.
