Caring for your piece
THE NATURAL WAY
Your pieces can be cleaned with a squeeze of lemon juice; gently wipe all around the piece with the juice using your fingers and then wash off with water.
THE CONVENTIONAL WAY
If you would prefer a more intense clean, you can use a brass polish (found at most large supermarkets) and a soft cloth. Gently rub the brass polish onto the piece using the cloth so it leaves a film and then using a cleaner side of the cloth buff off the polish to leave a lovely brass shine again.
CARING FOR YOUR NECKLACE CHAINS
Our chains are sterling silver that have been double gold plated in Italian gold. Please remove for swimming and showering to prolong the plating.To gently clean the chains, soak them for 10mins in warm water with a few drops of washing-up liquid.
DROP YOUR PIECES OFF WITH US!
Or drop your pieces at our shop, give us 30mins and we will clean them for you.We also offer re-plating your gold chains, price on request.
