From gem-emblazoned accessories to silver hoops, gold pendants, and more, your special pieces deserve to maintain the initial wow-factor you first met them with. Your jewellery is a whisper of legacy, a testament to love, and a fragment of history carrying precious sentiments. Proper care is essential to ensure the beauty and value of your favourite jewels remain timeless. Look to our recommendations and tips that keep your pieces shining for years to come.
Gold
Maintain the glow of your gold jewellery from Damas and more that may be affected over time through air, moisture, and even your skin oils. Start with a 15-minute soak in mild soapy water (baby shampoo recommended), then proceed to awaken its lustre with a soft-bristle toothbrush. If you wear your gold jewels often, polish them at least every 6 months. Steer clear of chlorine-based cleansers and any mystery ingredients. Most importantly, remember that gold is the most durable material and requires the least maintenance; however, it is a soft metal that scratches easily. Be gentle and dry it with lint-free or microfibre cloths (paper towels and tissues forbidden).

Silver
Pure silver scratches and loses its shine easily, while sterling silver’s durability and strength braves time with more grace. The allure and character of oxidised pieces can vanish with over-cleaning – skip the toothpaste myth and harsh chemicals. A quick touch-up with a soft cloth, non-abrasive cleanser, and warm water is all you need to keep your silver pieces from David Yurman and more in their best state. Avoid ‘dip’ polishes and exposure to salty air and sweat to preserve their charm.

Diamond
Although a diamond can maintain a shine for several years, it can temporarily lose its glimmer due to a buildup of lotions, make-up, and other grime. Restore their shine with a quick fix of a non-abrasive cleaner and warm water; this could include rubbing alcohol, Windex, or even dish soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard, as you may loosen or dislodge the stone. Diamonds are famous for being the hardest substance on earth, but they’re not invincible to the damage from other diamonds, so be sure to store each piece separately. A professional cleaning is recommended every couple of years to guarantee dazzling results. Shop your favourite diamonds led by Fergus James.

Precious Gemstones
Look to Yvonne Leon, Dima Jewellery, and more for your best gem collection. Natural gemstones are delicate and require intentional care with a lighter touch. Organic gems like pearls and opals thrive in the right environment: think less submersion, more gentle sweep with a damp cloth to maintain quality. Hot water is a hard no, and dragging them across fabrics risks abrasion. Instead, gently rub them individually. Use mild soap to lift stains, and dry thoroughly (even in drill holes) to prevent trapped moisture and discolouration. Avoid using hairdryers, steamers, and ultrasonic cleaning. Treat your gems like heirlooms, because they are.
