Eco-Friendly Jewellery Care Tips: Keep Your Pieces Sparkling for Years to Come
Hey there, jewellery lovers! 🌿✨ If you’re as passionate about eco-friendly jewellery as we are at Circles and Shadows, then you’ll want to keep those beautiful pieces looking their best for as long as possible. After all, taking care of your jewellery is not just about preserving its sparkle—it's about respecting the environment and your investment. So, let’s dive into some simple and sustainable tips to keep your eco-friendly gems shining!
1. Gentle Cleaning is Key
For our silver clay and recycled silver pieces, you don’t need harsh chemicals to keep them clean. A soft cloth or a jeweller’s polishing cloth works wonders for removing tarnish and fingerprints. No need for the heavy stuff—keeping it gentle keeps it green!
2. Store Smartly
When you’re not wearing your gorgeous jewellery, give it a proper home. Store each piece in a soft cloth pouch or a jewellery box with compartments to prevent scratches and tangling. For those pieces with semi-precious stones, like pink opal or tree agate, avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to keep them looking their best.
3. Avoid the Elements
Our eco-friendly pieces - especially our eco-resin jewellery collections -  love a low-key life away from harsh chemicals, environmental extremes and water. So, take off your jewellery before diving into the sea, like, pool river or tarn! Put your jewellery on after applying lotions and perfumes. This will help avoid dulling the finish or damaging delicate stones.
4. Regular Check-Ups
Give your jewellery a quick once-over every few months. Check for any loose stones or signs of wear and tear. Catching small issues early can prevent bigger problems down the line. Feel free to get in touch for any advice.
It’s all about making simple, mindful choices that keep your pieces looking fabulous and reduce environmental impact. So, keep these tips in mind, and let your jewellery shine as brightly as your commitment to a greener world!
