Jewellery Care
Caring for your jewellery helps it stay beautiful for years to come. Each piece is handmade with care, and a little daily attention will keep it looking its best.
Keep Your Jewellery Dry
As with all jewellery, we do not recommend submerging your pieces in water for any length of time. This includes swimming, bathing, showering, and washing.
Some gemstones, especially porous stones can be damaged or even dissolve when exposed to water, so keeping your jewellery dry is essential.
Avoid Chemicals
Perfume, lotions, hairspray, cleaning products, and even some soaps can dull or damage precious metals and gemstones.
For best results, put your jewellery on last when getting ready and remove it before using any household products.
Remove Before Activities
Take your jewellery off before swimming, exercising, sleeping, or doing any activity where it may catch, pull, or be exposed to sweat or moisture.
This helps protect delicate chains, handmade details, and gemstone settings.
Clean Gently
A soft, lint‑free polishing cloth is perfect for bringing back shine.
For a deeper clean, warm water and mild soap are usually enough, just be sure to dry your jewellery thoroughly afterwards and avoid soaking it.
Store With Care
At Little Silver Star, we take our jewellery off each evening and gently wipe it with a soft cloth before placing it in an airtight box or pouch.
Storing pieces separately prevents scratches and keeps chains from tangling.
Natural Patina
Precious metals naturally develop a soft patina over time. It’s part of their character and story. Regular gentle cleaning will help maintain their glow while preserving their handmade charm.
