Care Recommendations

To maintain the original character and brilliance of your piece, we recommend incorporating these preservation practices into your daily routine.

Every Day Care
Water & Cosmetic Exposure

Please handle your jewellery with intention. We advise removing your pieces prior to any exposure to water, including routine hand washing and showering.

Furthermore, protect your creation from cosmetic and chemical agents. Direct contact with perfumes, moisturising lotions, and household cleaning products can cause irreparable damage to precious metals and dull the natural lustre of stones. Always apply fragrances and cosmetics, allowing them to dry completely, before putting on your jewellery.

Physical Activity & The Elements

To prevent premature tarnishing and physical stress on the setting, ensure your creation is safely removed before engaging in sports or rigorous physical activities.

Similarly, avoid wearing your pieces at the beach or in swimming pools. Prolonged exposure to chlorine, ocean salinity, and abrasive sand will severely compromise the polish and integrity of the metal.

Temperature & Environment

When not being worn, your piece should be kept in a stable environment. Keep your creation away from sources of intense, direct heat and avoid exposing it to extreme temperature variations, which can affect both the metal and the setting.

Cleaning
Preservation & Care

To maintain the enduring brilliance of your creation, we recommend a routine of mindful preservation.

Your jewellery should be cleaned regularly to maintain its original brilliance. For periodic maintenance, you may cleanse your creation with an ultra-soft brush in lukewarm, soapy water, followed by a rinse in clean water and immediate, thorough drying with a soft, lint-free cloth. To safeguard the integrity of the rhodium or white gold plating, strictly avoid abrasive silver polishing cloths and chemical cleaners.

Storage
Storage & Preservation

Jewellery pieces can be easily scratched if allowed to come into contact with one another. We recommend that you store your creations individually in the VALURE case provided at the time of purchase, with all mechanisms securely closed. To prevent the formation of knots, chains should be fastened and laid flat when not in use.

Stone Care
Moissanite

Moissanite is a stone of exceptional resilience, holding a hardness of 9.25 that is beaten only by diamonds. It is celebrated for its remarkable ability to capture light, offering a level of brilliance and fire that shines much more than a diamond. Maintaining its original radiance is simple: cleanse the piece with a soft brush in warm soapy water and dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Fianit

To maintain its bright, crystalline appearance, it should be cleaned regularly with warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove oils and dust. While durable, it should be stored individually to prevent the surface from coming into contact with harder stones.

Rubies

While rubies are remarkably hard and durable for daily wear, they remain sensitive to sharp knocks and impacts. To avoid scratches or fractures, these gems must be handled with care and kept away from ultrasonic cleaners. We recommend regular cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove oils, and thoroughly pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Emeralds

Emeralds are delicate stones that require the highest level of care to prevent surface chips or scratches. They are highly sensitive to heat, perfumes, and household chemicals, which can compromise their structural integrity. You should avoid contact with all liquids and ensure these pieces are never subjected to ultrasonic cleaning.

Goldstone

To maintain its deep, cosmic lustre, gently cleanse the piece with a soft brush in warm soapy water. It should be stored individually to avoid contact with harder stones like Moissanite, which can scratch its surface. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners to preserve the integrity of its finish.

Opals

Opals are unique, soft gems that are particularly vulnerable to environmental changes and physical friction. They are sensitive to extreme temperatures and chemicals found in cosmetics or perfumes, which can cause them to lose their characteristic play-of-colour. To preserve their natural beauty, clean only with a soft, dry cloth and avoid exposure to water or heat.
