How should I care for my jewelry?

In caring for your jewelry, the most important thing to remember is maintaining your jewelry will always keep it looking its best. We recommend bringing your jewelry in at least twice a year to check your stones and settings to insure everything is secure. While it is with us, we will soak your jewelry in an ultrasonic cleaner with mild liquid soap especially designed for the ultrasonic cleaning. In between trips to your jeweler, you can feel safe about cleaning your jewelry in a solution of warm water and mild liquid soap (Ivory liquid works well). Just a note, pearls and opals require a little extra care. Pearls are porous, so do not leave them in the cleaner for too long (about 5 minutes is long enough) and rinse them extremely carefully with warm water. Do not hang them to dry, this lengthens the silk and will wear our the stringing faster…lay them flat on a dry surface. Opals contain water and should not be left in the cleaner for more than a few minutes as well. Rinse all your jewelry in lukewarm water to remove any soapy residue.
