How to Care for Electroplated Jewelry Components

To keep plated jewelry beautiful and highest quality for as long as possible, we recommend the following care rules:

Avoid Contact with Water

Do not expose jewelry to water, especially seawater or swimming pool water, as this may accelerate tarnishing or discoloration.

Avoid Cosmetics and Detergents

Perfumes, creams, cleaning products, and other chemicals may react with the surface and affect the protective layer.

Proper Storage

Store jewelry in a dry place, ideally in soft pouches or jewelry boxes protected from moisture and sunlight.

Protect from Mechanical Damage

Avoid scratches and deformation. Store pieces separately from other metal objects.

Gentle Cleaning

Use only soft polishing cloths or specialist cleaners for silver and gold. Do not use abrasive brushes or rough materials.

Inspect Before Use

Before incorporating plated parts into jewelry, check them for any visible damage or deformation.

Safety

Jewelry components are not intended for children and should not be used as toys.

With proper care, electroplated jewelry can maintain its shine, color, and quality for a long time.
