Jewellery Care Guide

CARING FOR YOUR JEWELLERY

  •  Sataara Jewellery is all hand-crafted in our workshops.
  •  Your jewellery should be stored in a dry place away from humidity, moisture and extreme temperatures.
  •  Rings and bracelets should be worn cautiously to avoid damage through impact.
  •  Don´t forget to remove your rings when washing up or showering, as soap particles may become lodged in stone settings and crevices. Soaps can also leave a film over metal and stones, creating a dull appearance.
  • Store your jewellery in its own box or pouch to prevent scratching, chipping and entanglement.
  • Gentle rubbing with a silver cleaning cloth will restore the original brilliance of the surface.
  • Do not use liquid cleaners for carved jewellery as the liquid dries into the engraving.
  • If you wear your gold plated jewellery for significant periods of time, the plating will eventually wear down. To restore its appearance, you can have it re-plated.
  • Make sure your jewellery is not in regular contact with hard surfaces, which will scratch or wear down the plating or enamelling.
  • Never use detergent, soap, toothpaste etc to clean your gold plated jewellery.
  • When dressing, jewellery should always be put on last and removed first as make up, cosmetics and perfumes can cause damage to delicate items.
  • All stone jewellery requires extra care and consideration during wearing to protect the setting as well as to safeguard the stone it holds.
