Product Care

Jewelry

Sterling silver can tarnish over time if exposed to air. The optimal way to bring back its' shine is with a Sunshine or similar polishing cloth, by gently polishing the surface. 

14 karat gold fill and 14 karat gold do not have the same propensity to tarnish. However, if jewelry made with these metals does become soiled, soak in a solution of a few drops of mild dishwashing liquid mixed with two cups of warm water and gently clean with a soft brush.

Freshwater pearls are more fragile than other gemstones, so to keep them beautiful you should put them on after you've applied your make up or perfume, never clean them with solutions containing ammonia, harsh detergents or abrasives, do not use an ultrasonic cleaner, do not soak them, and keep them in a soft bag to avoid them getting scratched. Freshwater pearls can be cleaned by gently wiping with a soft, lint-free cloth. If they become damp, allow pearls to air dry.

Handbags

Gently clean your vegan leather handbag with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed, avoid harsh chemicals, and store in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Silk Scarves

Ideally, `air wash` to freshen up your pure Habotai silk scarf by simply hanging it outside for 2-3 hours.

If washing is needed, for the first time wash the scarf by itself with 1 cup of vinegar and 2 teaspoons of salt in a washing machine on a full water cycle.

Dry immediately after washing by hanging scarf to dry with no overlap of the fabric to avoid potential transfer of color.

For subsequent washing, use a phosphate free detergent and full water cycle.

Wash scarf separately for the first 2-4 washes.
