Care Instructions for Sterling Silver Gold Vermeil Jewellery

To ensure your sterling silver gold vermeil jewellery maintains its beauty and luster over time, we recommend following these care instructions closely. Sterling silver gold vermeil, known for its precious metal coating over sterling silver, requires gentle handling and care to preserve its radiant finish.

1. Avoid Direct Contact with Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from harsh chemicals found in household cleaners, perfumes, cosmetics, and chlorine. These substances can tarnish the gold vermeil, affecting its shine and durability.
2. Remove During Physical Activities: To prevent scratches and impacts, remove your jewellery during physical activities, including exercising, swimming, or any tasks that involve abrasive products.
3. Store Properly: Store your jewellery in a cool, dry place, preferably in a jewellery box or pouch to avoid scratches and tarnish. Keeping pieces separate ensures they don’t rub together.
4. Clean Gently: Clean your jewellery regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain its shine. For more thorough cleaning, use warm soapy water and a soft brush, but avoid soaking. Ensure the jewellery is completely dry before storing it.
5. Limit Exposure to Air and Light: When not in use, store your jewellery in a closed box or a tarnish-resistant pouch to minimize exposure to air and light, which can accelerate tarnishing.
6. Put Jewellery on Last: When getting ready, make your sterling silver gold vermeil jewellery the last item you put on to minimize exposure to makeup and hair products.
7. Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning or if you notice significant tarnish, consider seeking professional jewellery cleaning services specifically suited for gold vermeil items.

By adhering to these care instructions, you can enjoy the lasting beauty and elegance of your sterling silver gold vermeil jewellery for many years to come.
