Semi-Precious Jewellery Care at AMONTA Jewellery

Taking proper care of your semi-precious stone jewellery is essential to maintain its beauty and longevity. Here are some tips to help you care for your semi-precious stone jewellery:

Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from chemicals such as perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and cleaning agents. These substances can damage the stones and their settings. Apply these products before wearing your jewellery to minimise contact.

Protect from direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or discoloration in certain gemstones. Store your jewellery in a jewellery box or a fabric-lined pouch when not in use to shield it from sunlight.

Remove before engaging in physical activities: Take off your jewellery before engaging in physical activities, such as exercise, sports, or household chores. Gemstones can chip or scratch if subjected to impact, and metals can become damaged or bent.

Clean gently: Regular cleaning helps maintain the brilliance of your semi-precious stone jewellery. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe away dirt and oils after each wear. For a deeper clean, soak the jewellery in warm, soapy water (use mild, non-abrasive soap), gently scrub with a soft brush, and rinse thoroughly. Be cautious with porous stones like pearls or opals, as they should not be soaked. Please contact AMONTA Jewellery for specific cleaning instructions if you’re uncertain.

Avoid excessive heat and extreme temperatures: Extreme heat can damage or alter the colour of certain gemstones. It’s best to keep your jewellery away from sources of heat, such as direct sunlight, hot surfaces, and saunas. Additionally, avoid exposing your jewellery to extreme temperature changes, as this can cause the stones to crack or fracture.

Store properly: When not wearing your jewellery, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep each piece separated to prevent scratching or tangling. Using individual jewellery pouches or a lined jewellery box with compartments is ideal.

Avoid wearing during water activities: While some semi-precious stones can withstand water exposure, it’s generally recommended to avoid wearing jewellery during swimming, bathing, or doing dishes. Water can weaken the settings, loosen stones, or damage certain gemstones.

By following these care tips, you can ensure that your semi-precious stone jewellery remains beautiful and retains its value for years to come.
