How do I best look after my jewellery?

STERLING SILVER PIECES

All Växa Jewellery is crafted in sterling silver, which naturally oxidises over time. Silver develops this natural tarnish when exposed to air, water and moisture. To best care for your jewellery, we recommend removing it prior to showering or swimming, avoiding contact with perfumes and moisturisers, and avoiding exposure to household cleaning products. Try to store your jewellery in a cool dry space when not in use. Silver can be easily cleaned with a soft silver polishing cloth or alternatively with warm, soapy water.

SOLID GOLD PIECES
Our fine jewellery pieces are made in 9ct, 14ct and 18ct solid gold. Solid gold pieces can be easily cleaned with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Make sure to use a gold polishing cloth if required.

GOLD PLATED PIECES
Our gold-plated pieces are made in sterling silver with 18ct gold plating. Plating naturally fades over time and with exposure to water, sweat, moisturisers and perfume. To best care for your jewellery, we recommend removing it prior to showering, moisturising or exercising, and cooking. Avoid using a silver or gold polishing cloth that has compound in it; instead use a soft jewellery or sunglass cloth.

Is your gold-plated piece looking a little faded? No worries! We can easily extend its life by having it re-plated. Please get in touch for a quote here.
