Care advice
When caring for your jewelry, it is important that you understand the vulnerability of precious metals and that you adapt it to your lifestyle.
In order to carefully maintain your jewelry, we recommend that you avoid exposure to impacts and extreme temperatures.
Chemicals and some household substances can weaken metal even if it is not immediately visible.
Remove your jewelry when you:
- Shower or swim
- When you sleep
- Use of cosmetic products or perfumes
- When you exercise.
- If you do work where your jewelery is exposed to chemicals or force.
