Care, Beautifully Considered
Jewelry Care Guide
A few thoughtful habits can help preserve the beauty, finish, and setting of your Arlina Jewelry for years to come.
Wear with intention
Put your jewelry on after applying perfume, lotion, hairspray, and cosmetics. Remove it before sleeping, showering, swimming, exercising, or doing household work to reduce exposure to impact, moisture, sweat, and residue.
Limit unnecessary exposure
Keep jewelry away from chlorine, saltwater, household cleaners, hand sanitizer, and other chemicals. These substances can dull the finish and may affect certain gemstones, treatments, or delicate components.
Clean gently
For solid-gold pieces with durable stones, use lukewarm water, a small amount of mild dish soap, and a very soft brush. Rinse carefully and dry completely with a soft, lint-free cloth. When unsure, use only a dry polishing cloth.
Respect each stone
Care requirements vary by gemstone. Pearls, opals, turquoise, treated stones, and many emeralds require extra caution. Avoid soaking delicate pieces and do not use ultrasonic or steam cleaners unless a qualified jeweler confirms they are safe.
Store pieces separately
Keep each piece in its own soft pouch or lined compartment, away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Fasten chains before storing and separate harder gemstones from softer materials to help prevent scratches and tangling.
Check before you wear
Periodically inspect clasps, prongs, chains, and stone settings. If a stone feels loose or a component appears damaged, stop wearing the piece and have it professionally examined before cleaning or wearing it again.
Travel thoughtfully
Use a padded jewelry case with separate compartments. Secure necklaces and bracelets, protect earrings and rings from pressure, and never place multiple unprotected pieces together in a bag.
Know when to ask
For deep cleaning, repairs, resizing, or stone-specific care, consult a qualified jeweler. Product-specific instructions should always take priority over general care guidance.
