Care Instructions -
A little extra care can keep your rings looking and feeling their best.
Avoid harsh chemicals such as bleach remove jewelry when showering, deep cleaning, going in the hot tub, pool etc. to avoid buildup.

We have a lot of hardened metals in our world today that can scratch and ding precious metals like silver & gold. Avoid things with metal handles like garden tools. The serrated metal of gym equipment and free weights are the worst it is best to leave your jewelry at home when going to the gym doing yard work etc.
Gemstones vary in their hardness and durability. Softer gems require more care.
Example of softer gems - pearls, moonstone, quartz.
Example of harder gems - sapphire and diamonds.
Research the Mohs scale for more information.

At home cleaning -
For at home cleanings I recommend using a soft tooth brush and some warm soapy water. I recommend a mild and natural soap like a Dr. Bronners or a Mrs. Meyers. If your ring has stones you want to be sure to clean behind them as well to help them stay extra sparkly.
If you have a high shine silver ring that you want to stay as shiny as possible store it in an air tight container when not wearing it to avoid oxidization.

We offer payment plans through Shop Pay, that will display as an option at checkout.
