Plated Brass
Remove your jewellery if there is a chance of getting wet; showering, swimming, exercise that makes you sweat.
Give your pieces a clean before putting them away, as tarnish can develop during storage if there’s lingering oils or other substances on the surface. Always store your jewellery individually to avoid scratches in a cool, dark place away from extreme temperature or bright sunlight.
Put your plated pieces on after your beauty routine to minimise exposure to hairspray, creams and make-up, and don’t let them come in contact with cleaning or household chemicals.
Plated Pieces
Avoid using a jewellery polishing cloth on plated pieces, as jewellery cloths are impregnated with polishing compounds which can wear your plating. Instead use a soft, lint free cloth to gently rub the surface.
Plated pieces need a little extra care. Do not use a polishing cloth on plated jewellery as this will remove the plated layer - instead you can use a soft lint-free cloth. Please note that over time, plated products will eventually tarnish and wear away from continuous wear, and you may find that your jewellery needs re-plating after a few years.
