-Care & Maintenance-
How often should I have my jewelry professionally cleaned?
Professional cleaning helps maintain your jewelry's beauty and longevity. For pieces you wear regularly, professional cleaning every 6-12 months is recommended. Pieces worn occasionally can be cleaned annually. Delicate or valuable pieces should be professionally cleaned at least once a year. Professional jewelers have specialized equipment and expertise to safely clean your pieces without causing damage. They can also inspect your jewelry for loose stones, worn prongs, or other issues that need attention. Contact us at info@STONEDAGAIN.NYC to discuss professional cleaning options for your specific pieces or to schedule a cleaning appointment.
What should I avoid when wearing my jewelry?
Gold Jewelry: Gold jewelry is generally safe to wear in water, including showers, swimming pools, and the ocean. Gold is resistant to corrosion and won't tarnish from water exposure. However, be cautious with delicate settings or gemstones, as chlorine and salt water can affect certain stones.
Silver Jewelry: Silver jewelry should NOT be worn in water. Silver is susceptible to tarnishing when exposed to water, chemicals, perfumes, lotions, and hairspray. Chlorine and salt water are particularly damaging to silver and can accelerate tarnishing significantly. Always remove silver jewelry before showering, swimming, or bathing.
General Care: For any jewelry piece, if it does get wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth. For specific guidance on your particular piece and its materials, contact us at info@STONEDAGAIN.NYC.
How do I prevent tarnishing?
Tarnishing is a natural process that occurs when metals react with air and moisture, but you can slow it down significantly. Store jewelry in airtight containers or pouches to minimize air exposure. Use anti-tarnish strips or cloths in your jewelry storage to absorb moisture and oxidation. Keep jewelry away from humidity and moisture. Remove jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising.
Silver Care: Silver is particularly susceptible to tarnishing when exposed to water and chemicals like perfumes, lotions, and hairspray. For silver pieces, store them with anti-tarnish paper or in sealed bags. Always remove silver jewelry before showering, swimming, or bathing to prevent tarnishing and damage.
Gold Care: Gold is overall resistant to tarnishing, but it's best to keep it away from salt water and chlorine, which can affect the finish and any gemstones. While gold can tolerate fresh water exposure better than silver, it's still wise to remove it before swimming in pools or the ocean.
Wear your jewelry regularly - the oils from your skin can actually help protect against tarnishing. Professional polishing can restore tarnished pieces to their original shine.
Can I wear my jewelry in water or shower?
While many jewelry pieces can tolerate brief water exposure, it's best to remove jewelry before showering, swimming, or bathing. Prolonged exposure to water, chlorine, and salt water can damage certain materials, loosen stones, and accelerate tarnishing. Gold, silver, and gemstones can be affected by chemicals in tap water and pools. Remove jewelry before water activities to ensure longevity. If your piece does get wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth. For specific guidance on your piece, contact us at info@STONEDAGAIN.NYC.
How should I store my jewelry?
Proper storage protects your jewelry from damage and tarnishing. Store pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Use individual soft pouches or a jewelry box with compartments to prevent pieces from scratching each other. Keep jewelry away from moisture and avoid storing it in bathrooms. For valuable or delicate pieces, consider using anti-tarnish strips or cloths. Remove jewelry before sleeping, exercising, or engaging in activities that could cause damage.
How should I clean my jewelry?
Regular cleaning keeps your jewelry looking beautiful. For routine cleaning, gently wipe your pieces with a soft, lint-free cloth. For a deeper clean, use lukewarm water with a small amount of mild dish soap and a soft brush to gently clean hard-to-reach areas. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry completely with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and steam cleaners unless specifically recommended for your piece's materials. For delicate or valuable pieces, professional cleaning is recommended.
