Jewelry Care Guide
Care by Material
Different materials require distinct maintenance to optimize their longevity. Follow these targeted guidelines based on your piece’s core composition:
Premium Moissanite
Moissanite is exceptionally hard and resistant to scratching, but it can still accumulate oils from lotions and skin. To restore its signature refractive fire, gently clean the stone using warm water, a mild dish soap, and a soft-bristled toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean microfiber cloth.
925 Sterling Silver & 18K Gold Plated
925 Sterling Silver naturally reacts with sulfur in the air over time, creating a delicate oxidation layer. Our pieces are plated with premium rhodium or 18k gold to significantly delay this process. To maintain original condition, avoid exposure to humidity, chlorine, and harsh chemicals. Always apply perfumes, lotions, and hairsprays before putting on your jewelry.
High-Grade Titanium Steel
Our daily essential line uses surgical-grade titanium steel, celebrated for being hypoallergenic and completely waterproof. While it stands up to showers and active daily routines without tarnishing, it is recommended to wipe it down occasionally to remove personal oil buildup and preserve its structural satin or polished finish.
The Golden Rules of Longevity
Adhering to these universal principles prevents structural stress and surface dulling across all product tiers:
- The Last On, First Off Rule: Always make your jewelry the final touch when dressing, and the first element removed at night.
- Dry Storage: When not in use, store each piece individually in your signature Aruary sage green drawer box or the provided linen pouch to prevent tangling and abrasive friction.
- Chemical Avoidance: Remove all pieces before swimming in chlorinated pools, entering hot springs, or using household cleaning solutions.

Need Deep Cleaning?
For advanced tarnish removal on Sterling Silver lines, utilize the signature polishing cloth included in your packaging. Avoid liquid dip cleaners on plated jewelry, as they can aggressively strip the protective gold or rhodium layer.
