Product Care
To ensure that your cherished jewelry remains in impeccable condition throughout its lifetime, we recommend following these essential care guidelines:
1. Avoid Exposure to Harsh Chemicals and Abrasives:
- Keep your jewelry away from contact with chemicals, including household cleaners, perfumes, cosmetics, and hairsprays. These substances can dull the luster of gemstones and metals.
- Refrain from using abrasive materials or harsh cleansers, as they may scratch or damage the surface of your jewelry.
2. Remove Jewelry During Certain Activities:
- Remove your jewelry before swimming, as chlorine and saltwater can have adverse effects on metals and gemstones.
- Take off your jewelry before bathing or showering, as soap and shampoo residue can accumulate and diminish its shine.
- Avoid wearing jewelry during vigorous exercise or sports to prevent accidental damage.
3. Store Properly:
- When not adorning your jewelry, store it in a cool, dry place. Excess moisture can cause metals to tarnish and promote gemstone cloudiness.
- Use individual jewelry pouches or boxes to prevent pieces from tangling or scratching each other.
- Consider using anti-tarnish strips or cloths to maintain the brilliance of silver jewelry.
4. Regular Cleaning:
- Gently clean your jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear to remove oils, dirt, and sweat.
- Periodically, use a jewelry-specific cleaning solution or warm soapy water to clean more thoroughly. Be sure to rinse and dry thoroughly afterward.
5. Professional Inspection:
- Have your jewelry professionally inspected and cleaned by a jeweler on an annual basis. They can check for loose stones, worn prongs, or other issues that may require attention.
6. Be Mindful of Gemstones:
- Different gemstones may require specific care. Consult with a jeweler or refer to our gemstone care guide for detailed recommendations on caring for specific gemstone types.
By following these product care guidelines, you can ensure that your SO SEOUL Jewelry continues to shine brilliantly and maintain its value for generations to come.
