Gold-plated jewellery can tarnish over time if not properly cared for. Tarnishing is a process in which the gold reacts to air and moisture, causing it to oxidise and appear darkened.
To prevent your gold-plated jewellery from tarnishing, there are a few steps you can take to keep the lustre of your pieces intact.
1. Apply perfumes and moisturisers well before adding your jewellery
2. Remove jewellery before bed
3. Avoid wearing whilst showering, swimming or exercising
4. Keep jewellery away from any harsh chemicals
5. Store your pieces in a cool, dry place
How to Clean Gold-Plated Jewellery?
With a light hand, carefully use a jewellery polishing cloth, specifically designed for cleaning gold, to clean your pieces and bring back their dazzling properties. Just be careful not to rub too hard to avoid removing the gold plating.
