Gold-fill jewellery is a beautiful and durable alternative to solid gold, offering a lasting shine without the high price tag. With proper care, your gold-fill pieces can stay radiant for years. Hereβs how to clean, store, and wear your jewellery to maintain its beauty.
Cleaning Your Gold-Fill Jewellery
Regular cleaning helps maintain the shine of your gold-fill pieces. Follow these simple steps:
- Polish Gently β For extra shine, use the white polish pad included with your order, designed for our gold-fill items.
- Use Mild Soap & Water β Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak your jewellery for a few minutes, then gently clean with a soft toothbrush or cloth.
- Rinse Thoroughly β Ensure all soap residue is removed by rinsing under lukewarm water.
- Dry with a Soft Cloth β Pat dry with a lint-free cloth and allow your piece to air dry completely before storing.
Storing Your Gold-Fill Jewellery
Proper storage can prevent tarnishing and scratches. Here are some best practices:
- Store in a Dry Place β Moisture can accelerate dullness, so keep your jewellery in a dry environment.
- Use an Anti-Tarnish Pouch β Soft pouches or anti-tarnish cloths can help protect against exposure to air and moisture.
- Keep Pieces Separate β Storing jewellery separately prevents scratching and tangling.
Daily Wear Tips for Longevity
Your gold-fill jewellery is designed for everyday wear, but a little extra care can extend its life:
- Put Jewellery on Last β Apply lotions, perfumes, and sprays before wearing your jewellery to prevent buildup.
- Wipe After Wear β A quick wipe with a soft cloth after wearing removes oils and keeps it looking fresh.
- Remove Before Physical Activities β Take off your jewellery before swimming, exercising, or doing heavy work to prevent unnecessary wear.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals β Keep jewellery away from chlorine, saltwater, and household cleaning agents.
