Gold jewellery requires proper care to maintain its lustrous shine. Learn the best practices for keeping your gold pieces looking brand new.
Gold jewellery is a timeless investment that can last for generations with proper care. Here's everything you need to know about maintaining your precious gold pieces.
Daily Care Tips
Remove your gold jewellery before swimming, showering, or exercising. Chlorine and sweat can damage gold over time. Store each piece separately to prevent scratching.
Cleaning at Home
Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak your gold jewellery for 15-20 minutes. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently clean crevices. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft cloth.
Professional Cleaning
Have your gold jewellery professionally cleaned once a year. Jewellers have ultrasonic cleaners and steam cleaners that can restore your pieces to their original brilliance.
Storage Tips
- Store gold pieces in soft cloth pouches
- Keep them away from other jewellery to prevent scratches
- Use a jewellery box with individual compartments
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
