How to care for your Inné jewellery?

How to...

Your precious stone-adorned jewellery is not just a possession; it's a reflection of your style and sentimentality. Proper care ensures that these exquisite gems remain as radiant as the day you acquired them. Follow these guidelines to preserve the beauty of your jewellery featuring precious stones.

1. Cleaning

  • Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe off dust and dirt from your jewellery’s surface.
  • For more thorough cleaning, create a mild solution of lukewarm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. Soak the jewellery for a few minutes and then softly scrub with a soft brush, like a soft bristled, to remove grime. Rinse with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth.

2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals

  • Precious stones can be sensitive to chemicals, so it's best to avoid exposing them to harsh cleaning agents, perfumes, hairsprays, and lotions.
  • Remove your jewellery before swimming in chlorinated pools or hot tubs to prevent damage.

3. Storage

  • Store each piece of jewellery separately to prevent scratching and tangling.
  • Consider using soft pouches, individual jewellery boxes, or compartments in a jewellery box to keep pieces apart.
  • Keep your jewellery away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent colour fading or damage.

4. Gem-Specific Care

  • Diamonds: While diamonds are durable, they can still attract oils and dust. Regular cleaning maintains their sparkle. 
  • Rubies and Sapphires: These gems are relatively hard, but avoid exposing them to extreme heat.
  • Emeralds: Emeralds are softer and can be more susceptible to scratches, so handle them with care.
  • Pearls, Opals and other pours stones e.g turquiosie : are delicate and sensitive to acids, so avoid contact with perfumes, hairsprays, and cosmetics. Wipe them with a clean, damp cloth after wearing to remove oils and perspiration.

5. Professional Inspection

  • Schedule regular professional inspections to check for loose stones, prong wear, or other issues. A jeweller can re-polish and clean your jewellery to restore its brilliance.

6. Travel Precautions

  • When traveling, store your jewellery in a padded travel case or a small jewellery pouch to prevent damage during transit.

7. Wear Mindfully

  • Avoid wearing your jewellery during physical activities, chores, or heavy lifting to prevent accidental damage.

8. Restringing

  • For jewellery with delicate strings of pearls or beads, consider restringing every few years to prevent breakage.

Remember, each piece of jewellery is unique, and different stones and settings may require specialized care. Consulting with a professional jeweller can provide you with tailored advice for caring for your specific pieces. By following these guidelines, you'll ensure that your precious stone jewellery continues to shine brilliantly and holds sentimental value for generations to come.
