How to take care of gold vermeil jewellery:
Avoid wearing your jewellery while swimming, washing up, showering or exercising.
Avoid contact with chemicals, including fragrance and cosmetics, and abrasive surfaces, taking care to avoid catching on items of clothing.
Rinse in cold water, pat dry with soft 100% cotton cloth.
Some gemstones, like opals, are softer than others, and should not be submerged in water.
To ensure the longevity of your jewellery, store each piece individually in an airtight container to prevent tarnish and scratching.
Chains should always be laid flat or hanging, to avoid tangling or kinks.
Your jewellery is delicate and should be handled with care.
The care, wear, and storage of your jewellery influences its appearance; with gold vermeil wearing away gradually over time.
