Care

Tips for how to ensure a long life for your new metal jewelry:

• When possible, avoid extended exposure to chlorine, pools, hot tubs, saunas or spas.
  
  
  
• When possible, remove jewelry during more aggressive physical activities (running, hiking, swimming, etc.)
  
  

• When polishing your jewelry, we recommend a soft polishing cloth rather than abrasive material like bath towels, terry cloth, or paper towels.
  
  

• To ensure the longest possible lifespan, store your jewelry in a dry, air-tight area. Before storing, use a soft polishing cloth to remove any oxidation and perform a thorough cleaning. We've found it's helpful to occasionally remove any skin oils by rinsing with warm water and buffing with a soft polishing cloth. 
  
  

• Regularly clean your jewelry with mild soap and a soft pat dry. Don't rub! 

• On occasion, individual body chemistries can react with gold filled metals and cause a reaction. Pregnancy, thyroid disorders, hormone levels, medications and more can affect body alkalinity and may cause a reaction with your piece. It's definitely random and difficult to predict, but please contact us if you have any questions!
  
  

What is gold filled?

Gold filled is a pressure bonded layer of gold that has 100 times more gold than plated jewelry. It is incredibly durable, tarnish resistant, won't chip or flake, and is a great alternative to solid gold jewelry at a much better price point. It looks gorgeous, and will last for years when cared for properly!
