CARE ADVICES
The Care Guide to Look After Your Jewelry
The clasps of our earrings are made of silver to prevent any allergies, and their weight is calibrated so they can accompany you throughout the day without causing discomfort. After gilding, we apply a protective varnish on all our jewelry to maintain their shine over time. These thoughtful details are designed to ensure your jewelry and their stories accompany you for as long as possible.
To remain timeless, your jewelry needs to be cared for. No need for elaborate ceremonies, just a few simple daily habits that will make all the difference.
The Golden Rules
All our jewelry is made of brass and tin, gilded with fine 24k gold. In our workshop, we only use pure 24k gold, unalloyed with other metals, which we love for its quality and unique color. However, over time, our lifestyle habits can affect its shine.
To maintain its brilliance, a few precautions are necessary; nothing too complicated, you'll see.
Simple Habits to Adopt
Store them properly in their case to protect them from external factors (sun, humidity, dust, etc.).
Remember to fold the posts of your hoop earrings or sleeper earrings to prevent them from getting tangled with another overly daring piece of jewelry and to avoid snags.
Put your jewelry on last when finishing your beauty routine to avoid damaging them, as they’re not fans of cosmetic products.
Give your jewelry a break when swimming, showering, exercising, or sleeping.
Avoid prolonged contact with saltwater, chlorinated water, sweat, perfume, etc.
Your jewelry won’t deteriorate after your first dive in the pool, but over time, it makes a difference!
A little friendly advice: no matter the material of your jewelry, don’t let it help you with cleaning. Cleaning products and their compositions can be harsh.
If you forget, don’t worry—there are a few solutions you can try before calling us for help.
Solutions in Case of a Slip-Up (SOS)
Need a Quick Dry?
Use a little talc and a soft cloth to remove any traces of moisture, even in the tiniest crevices. That’s enough to dry them—no need to place them on the radiator or in the oven; jewelry needs gentleness.
For Those Who Simply Need Cleaning
Whether you’ve channeled your inner Picasso in painting or Bocuse in the kitchen, a soft cloth soaked in a bit of 90° alcohol followed by talc will save your jewelry.
Note: Avoid this for pearls, as it could damage the nacre.
Sandstorm Alert
If after a day at the beach, sand grains remain stuck in the links of your chain or in the finer details of your jewelry, a small interdental brush will do the trick. Use it gently, and it's available at any pharmacy.
