Everyday Luxury Deserves Everyday Care

Your jewelry is meant to be worn, lived in, and loved not hidden away for special occasions. At Gilded, every piece is designed to bring confidence, beauty, and meaning to your daily life. With simple, thoughtful care, your jewelry will continue to shine for years to come.

Jewelry care doesn’t need to be complicated. A few easy habits will help protect your diamonds, metals, and finishes so they stay as brilliant as the moments they represent.

How to Care for Your Gilded Jewelry

Daily Wear Tips

Jewelry is made to be enjoyed but like anything worn every day, it benefits mindful handling.

We recommend removing your jewelry before:

• Exercising or high impact activities

• Swimming in pools, oceans, or hot tubs

• Applying lotions, perfumes, or hairspray

• Cleaning or working with household chemicals

• Sleeping (especially with delicate chains or prongs)

These simple habits help protect both your diamonds and the metal settings that hold them securely.

Storing Your Jewelry Properly

When your jewelry is not being worn, proper storage helps prevent scratching, tangling, and wear.

Best Practices

• Store pieces individually whenever possible

• Use soft pouches or lined jewelry boxes

• Keep chains fastened to avoid tangling

• Avoid storing jewelry in humid environments

Diamonds are incredibly durable but they can scratch other jewelry, including other diamonds. Individual storage helps preserve each piece.

Cleaning Your Jewelry at Home

Regular cleaning helps restore brilliance and keeps your jewelry looking its best.

Gentle Cleaning Method

  1. Mix warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap
  2. Soak jewelry for 10–15 minutes
  3. Use a soft toothbrush to gently remove buildup
  4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water
  5. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth

Avoid paper towels, which can scratch metal surfaces.

What to Avoid When Cleaning

To protect your jewelry, avoid:

• Harsh chemicals

• Abrasive cleaners

• Ultrasonic cleaners (unless professionally advised)

• Bleach or chlorine-based solutions

If you are ever unsure, gentle soap and warm water are always the safest option.

Diamond Care & Longevity

Both lab grown and mined diamonds are exceptionally durable and suitable for everyday wear. However, the settings that hold them require attention over time.

We recommend periodically checking:

• Prongs and settings

• Clasps and closures

• Chain links and jump rings

If you notice looseness or movement, a professional inspection can prevent damage or loss.

Professional Maintenance

Even with careful wear, jewelry benefits from occasional professional maintenance.

We Recommend:

• Professional cleaning once per year

• Setting inspection annually

• Immediate inspection after any hard impact or drop

Routine care helps maintain sparkle, structure, and long term durability.

Caring for Different Jewelry Types

Traveling With Jewelry

When traveling, protect your jewelry by:

• Using a dedicated jewelry travel case

• Packing pieces individually

• Avoiding loose storage inside luggage

• Keeping valuable pieces in carry-on bags

Traveling with care helps protect against scratches, tangles, and loss.

When to Remove Your Jewelry

Jewelry is designed for everyday luxury but not every activity.

Remove jewelry when:

• Swimming

• Showering

• Exercising

• Cleaning

• Using beauty products

• Gardening or outdoor labor

These environments can accelerate wear or expose jewelry to damaging chemicals.

Jewelry Is Personal And Meant to Be Worn

Natural wear is part of your jewelry’s story. Over time, small marks and signs of use reflect the life lived while wearing it. With proper care and occasional professional maintenance, your Gilded jewelry will remain beautiful and meaningful for years.
