Understanding how to care for and protect your jewelry can keep them in its original condition for many years to come. Here are some of our recommendations:

• If possible, remove your jewelry before starting any activity that might damage it, such as playing sports, cooking or gardening.

• To ensure the life of your 14k or 18k plated jewelry, do not expose it to water. 

• Avoid any contact with cosmetic or household products, since they contain ingredients that could discolor your jewelry.

• Fine jewelry should be removed before going into a chlorinated swimming pool or before using household cleaners. Many of these cleaners contain ammonia, which can be too harsh for delicate gems or vintage jewelry.

• Chlorine bleach, another common household solvent, can pit or damage gold alloys.

• Avoid contact with moisture and liquid cosmetics; this includes lotion, sunscreen, and perfume as this will affect the finish. 

• Remove jewelry when bathing, showering, or exercising.

• Jewelry should be stored when not in use in your Amour JNCY pouch, ring box, or jewelry box.

• Clean the jewelry after use with a soft cloth.

• Remove jewelry before going to sleep.

• Chains should be closed, wrapped up and laid flat so as to avoid the formation of knots.

• Jewelry boxes that feature individually padded slots for rings and posts for hanging necklaces and bracelets are also ideal.

• To clean your diamond jewelry, use a soft toothbrush and dish soap and gently scrub gold and diamonds. Do not clean pearls with any chemicals, abrasives or solvents.

• Most colored gems can be cleaned with warm water, mild dish soap (no detergents) and a soft brush. Be sure to rinse your jewelry in a glass of water to remove cleaning solutions.

• When traveling, protect your jewelry pieces from scratches or impact damage by padding it in a separate box or travel case.
