Jewelery maintenance

Always keep the jewelry in the iconic box I provide.
Each jewel / or accessory must be kept away from other rough objects or objects that could scratch it.
It should be advised to keep them away from chemicals and / or alcoholic substances such as perfumes, creams and cosmetics such as make-up.
They are water resistant but I always recommend not to wear them at the sea, in the pool or during sports, salt water, chlorinated water and sweat can corrode or damage the shine.
Please do not expose them to excessive heat sources.
Each piece of jewelry can be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth.
Over time, some parts and / or colors may become bronzed due to the normal oxidation given by the air.
