Why Choose Stainless Steel Jewellery?

Stainless steel jewellery is a fantastic choice for anyone who wants stylish, durable pieces that are easy to care for. Here’s why our stainless steel jewellery stands out:

Durable & Strong - Our handmade jewellery is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, which means it’s built to last. It resists scratches, dents, and everyday wear and tear, keeping it looking like new for longer.
Tarnish & Rust-Free - Unlike many other metals, stainless steel jewellery won’t tarnish or rust, even if you wear it every day. Whether it’s rain, sweat, or water exposure, your jewellery will stay looking gorgeous.
Hypoallergenic - Say goodbye to skin reactions! Our jewellery is hypoallergenic, making it a perfect choice for sensitive skin. You can wear it with confidence, knowing it won’t cause irritation.
Low Maintenance - Stainless steel doesn’t require much upkeep, meaning you can enjoy its beauty without the hassle of constant polishing or special care.

How to Take Care of Your Stainless Steel Jewellery

While our jewellery is designed to be low-maintenance, giving it a little extra care can go a long way in preserving its shine and durability. Here’s how to take care of your jewellery:

Daily Care Tips for Jewellery

Wear It Often: Believe it or not, wearing your jewellery often helps keep it clean. The natural oils from your skin create a protective layer, which can actually prevent tarnishing.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from strong chemicals, such as bleach, perfumes, and household cleaners. These can damage the plating and dull its shine.

How to Clean Your Jewellery

Basic Cleaning:
- Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water.
- Soak your jewellery for 5-10 minutes.
- Gently scrub with a soft toothbrush to remove any dirt or oils.
- Rinse with clean water and dry gently with a soft cloth.
Polishing:
- Use a microfiber or jewellery polishing cloth to gently buff your jewellery, restoring its shine. Avoid abrasive cloths that could scratch the surface.

Storing Your Jewellery

Use the Velvet Pouch: Each of our pieces comes in its own velvet pouch, which is perfect for protecting your jewellery when you’re not wearing it. We recommend you store each piece separately in its own pouch to prevent scratches and maintain the shine.
Avoid Humid Environments: Although stainless steel jewellery is rust-resistant, keeping your pieces in a dry, cool place will help maintain their condition.
Travel Tip: The velvet pouch is perfect for keeping your jewellery safe while you’re on the go, just pop it in your bag, and you’re good to go!

Frequently Asked Questions About Jewellery Care

Q: Can I wear my jewellery in the shower or pool?
A: Yes! Our stainless steel jewellery is waterproof and tarnish-free, so you can wear it confidently in the shower or while swimming. However, we do recommend avoiding exposure to saltwater or chlorine for extended periods.

Q: Will my jewellery turn green or tarnish over time?
A: No, stainless steel doesn’t react with skin or air, so your jewellery won’t change colour or tarnish. It’s designed to stay beautiful without the need for constant upkeep.

Q: How often should I clean my jewellery?
A: A quick clean every couple of weeks is enough to keep your pieces looking fresh. We recommend a deeper clean every 2-3 months to keep your jewellery shining.
