Gold jewelry is a lifelong investment. With the right care, your pieces can retain their brilliance for generations. Here are seven expert tips from our master jewelers.

1. Store each piece separately

Gold scratches easily against other metals and gemstones. Always store pieces in individual soft pouches or the original box with dividers.

2. Avoid contact with chemicals

Perfumes, lotions, hairspray, and household cleaners can dull gold and damage gemstone settings. Always put your jewelry on last — after makeup and fragrance.

3. Clean with mild soap and warm water

Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak the piece for 10–15 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft lint-free cloth.

4. Remove before swimming

Chlorine in pools and salt water in the ocean can weaken gold alloys over time, especially in 18K or lower-karat pieces. Remove all jewelry before swimming.

5. Polish with a jeweler's cloth

A soft jeweler's polishing cloth removes light tarnish and restores shine without scratching. Avoid paper towels or tissues which can cause micro-scratches.

6. Get professional cleaning annually

Bring your fine pieces to a professional jeweler once a year for ultrasonic cleaning and inspection. They can also check for loose stones and worn prongs.

7. Check clasps and settings regularly

Gently tug chains and pendants monthly to check for weakness. Inspect prong settings on earrings and pendants — if a prong feels sharp or loose, get it repaired before a stone is lost.

Following these simple steps will keep your Jwellary pieces looking as beautiful as the day you bought them.
