How to Keep Your Saint Luca Jewelry Sparkling Like New

Every piece of Saint Luca jewelry tells a story – a story of love, precious memories, special moments, and timeless elegance. 

Preserving the beauty and luster of your jewelry ensures that these stories continue to shine brightly for generations. 

In this guide, we'll share essential tips to help you care for your precious treasures. Let us help you keep your stories alive and sparkling.

PROPER STORAGE IS KEY

Store Safely When Not in Use

Jewelry encompasses more than decorative value; it's a cherished keepsake that demands careful preservation, even if the jewelry is not worn frequently.

To maintain its splendor, store your jewelry in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. These elements can cause your precious pieces to tarnish, discolor, or sustain damage. 

Consider using a fabric-lined jewelry box with separate compartments or individual pouches to prevent scratches and tangles.

MAINTAIN THE SHINE

Clean Regularly

Over time, everyday substances like dirt, oils, and unseen residue can dull the magnificent shine of your jewelry. 

Regular cleaning is paramount to preserve its sparkle. For most jewelry, a gentle cleaner specifically designed for the metal and gemstones is ideal. 

Alternatively, a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water can be used for delicate items. 

Remember, the right cleaning method depends on the jewelry's materials; when in doubt, consult a professional.

HANDLE WITH CARE

Be Mindful of Chemical Exposure

Jewelry is meant to be showcased, yet it's vital to wear it wisely. Exposure to harsh chemicals can significantly harm your pieces. 

It's advisable to remove jewelry when swimming in chlorinated water, cleaning with household chemicals, or engaging in other activities that could expose it to damaging substances. 

Additionally, cosmetics, lotions, perfumes, and hairsprays contain components that can tarnish or corrode jewelry over time. A good practice is to put your jewelry on last when getting ready and take it off first when returning home.

NIGHTTIME RITUALS

Remove Before Bed

We all have favorite pieces that feel like extensions of ourselves, but wearing jewelry to bed can lead to accidental damage. 

Movements during sleep can cause chains to tangle or snap, and prongs to catch on fabrics, potentially bending or breaking them. 

Make it a habit to remove your jewelry before bed to avoid unnecessary strain and wear.

MAINTAIN THE SPARKLE

Your Saint Luca jewelry is an investment in beauty and craftsmanship. By following these care tips, you ensure that each piece remains as captivating as the moment you first wore it. 

Keep your treasures sparkling for generations to come, and let the stories they carry unfold beautifully with time.
