Jewelry Care

Fine jewelry is designed to be treasured. With thoughtful care, your Yaf Sparkle pieces can retain their beauty for years to come.

GENERAL CARE

Remove jewelry before bathing, swimming, exercising, sleeping, or performing household tasks. Avoid direct contact with perfume, hairspray, lotions, cosmetics, household cleaners, chlorine, and salt water.

After wearing, gently wipe each piece with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth before storing it.

STORAGE

Store jewelry individually in its original pouch or box, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keeping pieces separated helps prevent scratching, tangling, and damage.

STERLING SILVER

Sterling silver naturally develops a patina over time. Gently polish it with a soft silver-polishing cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, paper towels, and harsh chemical dips, particularly on oxidized or intentionally antiqued finishes.

GOLD AND GOLD-PLATED JEWELRY

Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive polishing products, as they may affect the surface or plated finish.

GEMSTONES AND PEARLS

Gemstones and pearls require delicate handling. Avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaners unless specifically approved for the piece. Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry completely before storing.

LEATHER AND MIXED-MATERIAL PIECES

Keep leather away from water, oils, perfumes, and prolonged sunlight. Do not soak or use jewelry-cleaning solutions on leather or mixed-material designs.

DESIGNER JEWELRY

Materials and finishes vary by designer. Any care instructions supplied with your piece should take priority over these general recommendations.

PROFESSIONAL CARE

If your jewelry requires deeper cleaning, repair, or inspection, please contact Client Services before attempting treatment at home. We will be pleased to advise you on the most appropriate care for your piece.
