Jewelry Care
What to know about 18k Gold-Plated jewelry

Our 18k Gold-Plated jewelry is coated with 1.5 microns of rich, 18k gold. While 18k gold plating is beautiful and, thanks to the skill of our artisans, relatively durable, it is in the nature of any plated object that it will naturally wear over time.

The better care is provided your 18k Gold-Plated jewelry, the longer the period it will retain its excellent condition.

Items that have experienced wearing can often be replated for a small fee. Contact us for more information.

How to store 18k Gold-Plated jewelry

To protect your 18k Gold-Plated jewelry, store it in a completely dry place, away from direct sunlight. For added protection, store it in an anti-tarnish pouch or case.

How to clean 18k Gold-Plated jewelry

Gently wipe your pieces with a soft cloth or toothbrush to remove dirt and residue. Avoid using any polish, as it can wear away the delicate gold plating.
