Follow our tips to keep your new ring in great shape. Literally...
Know when to take them off. The best way to prevent your rings from warping or damage is to take them off when you do any kind of intense work with your hands such as exercising, when carrying heavy objects, and doing any kind of manual labor.
Do not ever bend. Never bend, open or squeeze a ring to resize it ever! This will cause damage to the metal and may eventually cause your ring to crack or break.

GOLD & PLATINUM JEWELRY CARE & CLEANING GUIDE
24 karat gold (24K) is pure gold.
22 karat gold (22K) is 22 parts gold and 2 parts another metal or metals, making it 91% gold.
18 karat gold (18K) is 18 parts gold and 4 parts another metal or metals, making it 75% gold.
14 karat gold (14K) is 14 parts gold and 10 parts another metal or metals, making it 58.3% gold.
10 karat gold (10K) is 10 parts gold and 14 parts another metal or metals, making it 41.7% gold. This is the minimum karat designation for a metal to be called gold in the US.
WHY DO RINGS BEND?
The main reason most rings bend is exerted physical pressure, usually when you are doing some kind of manual work while wearing your ring. Just the act of wearing a ring and picking ordinary things up with your hands can bend the metal. Sleeping with your rings on will bend the metal. Things you should really avoid doing while wearing rings: going to bed, carrying luggage, heavy boxes, exercising, doing push-ups, punching, weightlifting, hammering, etc...).
WHAT METALS ARE MORE PRONE TO BENDING?
Even though it is a precious metal, yellow gold is one of the easiest metals to bend, and the higher the karat is, the softer and more pliable the gold is.
Another metal that is also soft and can easily bend is silver.
Gold and silver are very malleable metals and can bend easily. Not to mention that when you’re wearing it, your hands may heat up these metals making them even softer. Please take care when wearing your rings.
Platinum is a harder, less pliable metal, therefore, will be less prone to bending and scratching.
I HAVE AN OPEN BAND RING, WHAT CAN I DO TO TAKE CARE OF IT?*
Never bend or squeeze an open band ring to resize it! Open band rings are more fragile because they are a "C" shape, not an "O" shape and have an opening that makes them more susceptible to bending. Please be extra mindful when wearing an open band ring. The constant bending of the ring may cause the metal to weaken and eventually break. Always take off your open band rings whenever going to bed, doing any manual labor, and when carrying heavy objects.
* Open band rings include all of our Damian Rings and Invidia Rings
Regular professional cleaning. Professional cleaning is recommended at least once a year. In between professional servicing, you can also maintain your gold and platinum jewelry at home by using a gold, platinum, and gemstone safe non-abrasive cleaner as well as the soft polishing cloth provided.
Avoid harsh jewelry cleaners. Gold and platinum jewelry can be cleaned at home with warm, mild soapy water and a tightly woven microfiber or a soft chamois cloth or a soft baby's toothbrush. If using liquid jewelry cleaners please read the manufacturers product description first to make sure that it is safe to use on the metals and gemstone of your piece - not all jewelry cleaners are safe to use. Never use toothpaste or other abrasive materials to clean your jewelry. Do not use ultrasonic machines or steam cleaners as these may loosen diamonds and gemstones.
Inspect your jewelry. We encourage you to carefully examine your jewelry regularly to make sure the prongs are intact and the clasps are working properly. Weakness in timeworn prongs and clasps can result in the loss of a gemstone or the entire piece of jewelry. Over time the surface of silver, gold and platinum jewelry may become slightly dull, this is due to tiny micro scratches on the surface from normal wear. We recommend very occasionally professionally polishing your jewelry - however, no more than once a year as this removes a thin layer of metal each time.
Wear With Extra Care. Gold and platinum are precious metals that will last forever but please keep in mind that precious metal jewelry is delicate and should be worn with care. Gold is a soft metal and can get scratched, dented, bent if treated roughly.
Know when to take your jewelry off. Gold is a soft metal and the higher the purity of the karat, the softer the gold will be.

Keep away from abrasives. Keep away from all rough and abrasive surfaces such as sand, cement, glass, and other metal objects, etc...
Avoid chemicals. Avoid exposing gold and platinum jewelry to household cleaners especially bleach. Bleach will cause discoloration and damage to the metal and gemstones. Chlorine may also damage fine precious metals. Repeated exposure to chlorine can weaken gold's structure, eventually leading to breakage - please keep away from pools and jacuzzis.

Wearing your silver jewelry may actually help prevent oxidation, so we recommend wearing your silver jewelry every day. Tarnishing can be removed by using a sterling silver safe jewelry cleaner, or by polishing the tarnish off with a silver jewelry polishing cloth.
Airtight storage. Keep your silver jewelry stored in a dry airtight ziplock bag or inside an airtight jewelry box to help reduce tarnish.

Pearls are commonly passed down to become a treasured family heirloom. Make sure your pearls last long enough to achieve heirloom status by following these maintenance tips.
Never clean pearls with a steam or ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. Both of these methods are likely to damage the outer layer of the pearl. After every wear, wipe your pearls with a soft cloth. This will help prevent any buildup of oils or other substances that may have come in contact with your jewelry throughout the day. Clean with a damp cloth only as needed. If your pearls are visibly stained, you can mix a solution of lukewarm water and mild dish soap, dip a soft cleaning cloth in it and wipe the pearls. Let it dry all the way before storing and do.
Wear With Extra Care. Keep strung pearl jewelry such as necklaces and bracelets completely dry. To avoid them stretching out or warping, take off your pearl jewelry before showering or bathing (avoid beach and pools). Moisture may cause the string to weaken and loosen. Pearl necklaces should be stored flat, not hanged as to avoid stretching.
Take your pearls to a professional jeweler once a year for inspection. Make sure to have a professional jeweler check the integrity of your pearl jewelry about once a year. They can also give them a thorough and safe cleaning.
Avoid all chemicals and products on pearls. Avoid applying makeup, hairspray, lotion or perfume once your pearls are on. Pearls should be the final touch to your outfit. Keep them clean.
Pearls are soft and are prone to scratches. Please store them separate from other jewelry or abrasive objects in a soft fabric-lined compartment.
Wear your pearls often. Pearls do best in a moist environment, so wearing them frequently keeps them from drying out.

Gold Vermeil is a centuries-old technique of binding gold of at least 10 karats and above onto the surface of sterling (92.5%) or fine (99.9%) silver. Using an electroplating treatment, particles of fine gold are chemically bonded onto the silver metal base resulting in a beautiful surface of gold.

Necklaces should be hanged on a jewelry rack or carefully wrapped around a cloth to prevent tangling. Pearl necklaces should be stored flat avoid the string stretching or warping. To avoid scratching or scuffing, store in a soft-lined jewelry box.
When traveling, it's always a good idea to bring a small travel sized jewelry box to safely store your pieces. Be sure to keep your valuables in a safe place, such as the security safe in your hotel room - and DO NOT ever leave your valuables on the dresser or side table.
