Gold & Silver Plated Jewellery
Our gemstones will bring you love, but it's a two way relationship. They require your love & care too!
The 22ct gold-plating coats the brass, silver & tin base metal. With proper care, you can extend their life and enjoyment of your jewellery
Please be mindful of acidic substances as they can damage your plated pieces. Avoid exposing them to water, perfume, or hand sanitisers.
Keep in mind that the way your unique skin oils interact with different metals and plating is personal to each individual. While we strive for durability, we cannot be held responsible for any tarnishing that may occur.
To ensure your jewellery maintains its shine, we offer a free re-gilding service within one year of purchase. After that, a small charge will be applied.
For the best cleaning results, we recommend using a soft cotton cloth to polish your pieces.
Remember, taking care of your jewellery ensures its longevity and allows it to continue adding beauty to your life.
Cactus leather pieces
The key to maintaining your leather pieces is to immediately clean stains with a slightly wet non-abrasive cloth (such as a micro-fiber towel) and mild soap. We recommend hand-washing your pieces only when necessary to keep the longevity of the leather. Do not tumble dry.
Velvet pieces
Ideally, you should brush your velvet pieces regularly using a soft clothing brush to avoid build up of residue. We suggest brushing every week or so. Velvet absorbs liquid. In the case your item has a wet patch, don't worry! Steam the area (do not steam directly on the material) using a steamer and use a soft clothing brush to buff out the patch.
Artesana 100% cotton pieces
The artesana fabric is hand-woven and delicate. We suggest to only hand-wash in cold water, with mild detergent and hang dry naturally, (never use a hot dryer) to prevent shrinkage and preserve the colour and softness of the fabric
Linen and 100% cotton pieces
When hand washing is not an option, use the most delicate cycle on your machine. The use of cold water is recommended and never hot water unless you intend to have the cotton item to shrink. Turn the piece inside out to protect the outer side when washing and prevent the sun from fading the fabric while drying.
