Factors Influencing Jewelry Shine

The lustre of jewelry can be affected by several external factors, including skin pH, humidity, and exposure to certain chemicals. Bronze, a durable metal used in our jewelry, develops a protective patina over time, providing resilience against damage.

Prevention of Damage

  • Avoid contact with skin and hair products, as they can oxidize, discolor, or corrode jewelry. Cosmetics and perfumes should be applied before wearing jewelry.

  • Remove jewelry before engaging in physical activities such as exercising or cleaning to prevent accidental damage.

  • Sweat and body oils can hasten oxidation, so refrain from wearing jewelry during strenuous activities.

  • Chemicals present in swimming pools and natural springs can cause severe clouding, prompting the removal of jewelry before entering such bodies of water.

Storage Recommendations

  • Store jewelry separately in airtight zip-lock bags or acid-free fabric to prevent tarnishing from air exposure.

  • Store jewelry in a dry and cool location, avoiding proximity to heat sources or humid environments like bathrooms.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • For silver pieces, use a specialized silver dipping solution. Rinse thoroughly with soapy water and a soft toothbrush after immersion.

  • For bronze and brass and gold-plated items, use warm, soapy water and a soft toothbrush to remove dirt.

  • Creating a paste with water and bicarbonate and applying it for ten minutes, followed by gentle scrubbing with a soft toothbrush, can restore the shine of bronze and brass jewelry.

Unique Properties of Bronze: The Super Strong Metal That Lasts Forever

  • Bronze is like a tough superhero among metals. It's so strong and durable that it can stand the test of time. That's why it's the go-to choice for famous statues all over the world. Plus, bronze has a special superpower called patina. It's like a protective force field that keeps the metal from getting ruined, ensuring longevity over centuries. It's what gives bronze its cool, aged look. 

​
But here's the really cool part: bronze is like a magic carpet for your body.
 

  • The more you wear it, the brighter it shines. It's like it soaks up your energy and gives it back to you as a sparkling glow.

​

  • The interaction between bronze and your skin can alter its appearance. Hormonal changes or menstruation may cause slight darkening, which can be reversed with a gentle wash using soapy water and a toothbrush.

Additional Considerations

  • Avoid wearing jewelry while sleeping.

  • Handle gemstone and pearl jewelry with care during the cleaning. Seek professional assistance from a jeweller if any concerns arise.
