Jewelry Care is Self Care: A Guide to Keeping Your Sterling King Jewelry Shining
There's no better feeling than purchasing and wearing your very own Sterling King jewelry. We believe that every piece of jewelry you own is not just an accessory but a reflection of your unique style and personality. Just like any cherished item, your jewelry requires proper care and attention to maintain its beauty and radiance over time. Whether you own a pair of our classic Sylvia Crystal Drop earrings in gold or our bold Delphinium silver ring, this guide will provide you with practical and effective tips to care for your jewelry to ensure it remains
radiant and dazzling.
- Embrace the Gentle Touch: To maintain the beauty of your Sterling King jewelry without scratches or tarnish, handle it with care. Avoid tossing them in with a bunch of other pieces or throwing it on hard surfaces. Treat your jewelry gently and avoid exposing them to excessive force or rough handling.
- Store with Love: Proper storage is essential to prevent your jewelry from tarnishing or breaking. Keep your pieces in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Storing them in the pouch we provide will help avoid scratching and tangling.
- Prevent Chemical Encounters: Our jewelry can react negatively with chemicals or excessive water exposure, leading to tarnishing or discoloration. To prevent this, remove your jewelry before engaging in activities such as swimming, showering, cleaning, or applying lotions, perfumes, or hair products. We like to use the "Last to Put On, First to Take Off" policy.
- Polish Like a Pro: To maintain the luster of your finer Sterling King products like our range of sterling silver or gold jewelry, occasional polishing is essential. Use a soft, non-abrasive polishing cloth to gently rub the surface of your jewelry, removing any tarnish or fingerprints. Remember, a little polishing goes a long way!
- Shower of Love: One secret to keeping your jewelry radiant is to wear it often. Yes, really! The natural oils produced by your skin create a protective barrier that helps prevent tarnishing. So, wear your most glamorous set of Sterling King pieces with pride.
- Professional TLC: Accidents happen! So in the unlikely chance you accidentally damage your favorite Sterling King piece, we happily offer free repairs on any damage occurring within 30 days of delivery. After this period, we require a small fee to cover the cost of repairs, such as an earring post replacement, stone setting, ring sizing, or re-plating.
