Jewelry Cleaning

Maintenance of Jewelry for Continuous Wear:

Wearing solid gold jewelry , including gold flat back posts, round the clock is possible, but regular cleaning is essential to remove accumulated dirt and oils. This is especially crucial for ear jewelry to maintain ear health when worn continuously.

How to Properly Clean Your Solid Gold Jewelry with our Jewelry Care Kit:

  1. Choose a Safe Cleaning Area:

    • Select a secure surface or container to prevent jewelry loss during cleaning. Avoid cleaning in a sink to prevent accidental loss down the drain.

  2. Use the Paradise Jewelry cleaning solution: Mix a small amount with warm water to form a gentle cleaning solution.

  3. Soak, Scrub, and Rinse:

    • Submerge the jewelry in the soap and water solution for one to two minutes. Gently scrub using the brush provided, then rinse thoroughly.

  4. Dry with  the Polishing Cloth:

    • Pat the jewelry dry using the soft polishing cloth to maintain its luster.

Key Considerations During Jewelry Cleaning:

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

    • Steer clear of abrasive chemicals to preserve the longevity of high-quality body jewelry, such as 14k solid gold.

  • Utilize Chemical-Free Cloth:

    • Only use a chemical-free cloth during the cleaning process to prevent damage to the jewelry.

Proper Storage of Solid Gold Jewelry:

  • Individual Storage:
    • Store each piece of solid gold jewelry separately to prevent scratching and maintain its shine.
    • We recommend storing it in one of our Jewelry boxes.

 

 

Care for Titanium Body Jewelry:

Titanium body jewelry, including flat back posts, is made from implant-grade titanium, known for its durability, hypoallergenic properties, and longevity.

Effective Cleaning of Titanium Jewelry:

  • Regular Cleaning Routine:
    • Clean titanium jewelry weekly to prevent buildup, which can irritate the ears and potentially lead to infection.

Understanding Tarnishing and Preservation:

  • Tarnishing Causes:

    • Tarnishing occurs due to oxidation, often accelerated by exposure to sweat, body chemistry, personal care products, and chemicals in pools and hot tubs.

  • Tarnishing of Solid Gold and Titanium Jewelry:

    • Pure gold, like 24 karat gold, doesn't tarnish easily due to its minimal reactivity with oxygen. However, slight tarnishing may occur in gold body jewelry due to alloyed base metals. Higher karat gold experiences minimal tarnishing.

Optimal Jewelry Selection for Constant Wear:

  • Recommended Materials:

    • For continuous wear, it's advisable to choose either solid gold or titanium jewelry, especially flatback post earrings for added comfort and safety.

  • Maintaining Ear Health:

    • Regular cleaning and occasional removal of earrings are vital to prevent irritation and maintain ear health, regardless of the material.

  • Comfort and Convenience:

    • Flatback posts are a preferable choice due to their comfort and reduced likelihood of catching on towels or clothing.
