Daily Wear Guidelines

• Apply before, remove after — Put on your jewelry after applying cosmetics, perfumes, and hairsprays, and remove before showering, swimming, or exercising.
• Physical activities — Remove jewelry before engaging in sports, gardening, cleaning, or other activities that might expose pieces to impact or harsh chemicals.
• Chemical exposure — Keep jewelry away from chlorine, salt water, household cleaners, and beauty products, as these can cause tarnishing and stone damage.

Opal Care

• Clean with a soft, damp cotton cloth only
• Never use ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, or steam cleaners
• Do not use detergents, bleach, or chemical cleaners as these can damage the stone
• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat

Metal Care

Gemstone Care

• Regular cleaning — Wipe gems after wearing with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils and residue.
• Deep cleaning — For most gemstones (except opals, pearls, and softer stones), use a soft toothbrush with mild soap and warm water, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
• Professional maintenance — We recommend professional cleaning and inspection periodically, especially for pieces worn frequently.

Storage

• Store pieces separately in soft pouches or lined compartments
• Keep jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Avoid storing multiple pieces together to prevent scratching

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I wear my opal jewelry in the shower?

  When you purchase high-quality, solid Australian opals, they are far more durable than other types of opal. However, showering with soaps can dull the surface and impact the setting integrity over time. We recommend removing your jewelry before showering.

• My piece has scratches. Can this be fixed?

  Yes, most metals can be professionally repolished. Contact our care team for service options and we'll restore your piece to its original brilliance.

• Are ultrasonic cleaners safe for my jewelry?

  No, we do not recommend ultrasonic cleaners for any of our pieces, especially those containing opals or delicate gemstones. These devices can cause damage to stones and settings.
