Jewelry Care
Beautiful jewelry is made to be worn.
With a few simple habits, you can help
preserve the brilliance of your moissanite,
protect the metal and keep every detail
looking its best for years to come.
01 — THE ESSENTIALS
Three simple habits.
Jewelry care doesn't need to be complicated.
Most everyday wear can be managed with
three simple principles: clean gently,
protect your jewelry from unnecessary
exposure, and store each piece carefully.
Clean Gently
Use lukewarm water, a small amount of mild soap and a very soft brush to remove everyday oils, lotion and residue.
Remove Before Water
Take jewelry off before showering, swimming, exercising or working with household chemicals.
Store Separately
Keep each piece in its own soft pouch or lined compartment to reduce rubbing, scratching and tangling.
02 — CLEANING
Bring back the brilliance.
Everyday jewelry naturally collects oils,
lotion, sunscreen, soap residue and dust.
This can temporarily reduce the visible
sparkle of your moissanite.
A gentle clean is usually all it takes
to bring the brilliance back.
Prepare
Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild soap. Avoid very hot water and harsh cleaners.
Soak
Allow the piece to sit briefly so everyday buildup can loosen before you begin cleaning.
Brush
Use a very soft-bristled brush and gently clean around the stone, prongs, setting and underside of the jewelry.
Rinse
Rinse carefully with clean water. Keep the jewelry secure and avoid rinsing directly over an open drain.
Dry
Pat dry with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Allow the piece to dry completely before storing.
03 — PROTECTION
What to avoid.
Chlorine & Bleach
Avoid pools, hot tubs and direct exposure to chlorine or bleach. These chemicals can affect metal settings and finishes.
Harsh Household Cleaners
Remove jewelry before cleaning, especially when working with strong household chemicals.
Abrasive Products
Avoid toothpaste, abrasive powders, stiff brushes and aggressive polishing products.
Perfume & Cosmetics
Apply perfume, lotion, sunscreen, makeup and hairspray before putting your jewelry on.
Heavy Impact
Remove rings before heavy manual work, exercise or activities where the jewelry could be struck or bent.
Sleeping in Jewelry
Removing jewelry before sleep can reduce unnecessary friction and pressure on settings.
04 — STORAGE
Give every piece its place.
Proper storage protects your jewelry
when you aren't wearing it.
Keep pieces clean and dry, and store
them individually so stones, chains
and metal surfaces don't rub against
one another.
05 — KNOW YOUR JEWELRY
Care for the stone. Protect the setting.
Moissanite
Moissanite is exceptionally durable and
highly resistant to scratching, but everyday
oils and residue can temporarily reduce its
visible brilliance.
Gentle cleaning helps keep the facets clear
and the sparkle at its best.
Metal & Details
The metal, prongs, bezel, pavé details and
other setting components experience the
everyday effects of friction, impact and
chemical exposure.
Treat the setting with the same care you
give the stone.
06 — INSPECT
Look closely. Wear confidently.
Jewelry that is worn frequently should
occasionally be inspected for signs of
wear.
Before wearing, take a moment to check
the stone, prongs, bezel, links and clasps.
If a stone moves, a prong catches on fabric, a clasp no longer closes properly, or the setting appears damaged, stop wearing the piece and have it inspected by a qualified jewelry professional.
07 — QUESTIONS
Care, answered.
How often should I clean my moissanite jewelry?
Can I clean moissanite with soap and water?
Why does my moissanite look cloudy?
Can I wear my jewelry in the shower?
Can I wear my ring while exercising?
What if my stone feels loose?
Can I use an ultrasonic cleaner?
