Jewelry care tips

First of all, it is good to remember:

Brass is not afraid of water, on the contrary you can wash your hands with it but be careful of the stones!!

Avoid leaving your jewelry in damp conditions, such as in a corner of the bathroom on the wet sink...

Avoid sports, sweating, household products, or even perfume.

Jewelry needs cleaning with warm water and soap for all grease, daily life stains (perspiration, food, etc.).

Many of my jewelry are made of anti-tarnish brass, including bracelets, rings, necklaces that directly touch the skin. This is specified in each product sheet. And the chains and findings are very often made of stainless steel.

Then for raw brass there is the maintenance of the shine of the jewel, as for those in silver because both contain copper, (which can cause a little tarnishing, loss of shine). Thus there is the Miror product which works very well. To be applied very lightly on a cotton cloth which absorbs the product well. Then by mechanical action on the jewel, rub to make it shine.
Even more mechanical, without product, there is the extra fine steel wool used in 0000 marquetry. Simply rub in all directions to remove the surface of the brass which has lost its shine.

Many of my clients tell me they use toothpaste too! :)
