Filigree care

Although fine filigree jewelry looks delicate and fragile, it is actually quite durable. With proper care, these precious pieces will retain their beauty for many years.

Tips for Proper Care of Your Filigree Jewelry

Handling Your Jewelry
Handle your filigree pieces with care. Avoid rough or unnecessary handling. Always ensure your hands are clean, dry, and free of lotions or chemicals before touching your jewelry. Avoid immersing filigree items in chlorinated or seawater, as this can cause tarnishing. Do not wear your jewelry during housework or any rough activities.

Storage of Filigree Jewelry
Store each piece separately in fabric-lined, airtight, and light-proof compartments or boxes. Avoid mixing your filigree with other jewelry to prevent scratches and damage.

Storage of Filigree Decorative Items
Display filigree items in a showcase or cabinet away from direct sunlight or bright lights to prevent oxidation and maintain their shine.

Traveling with Your Jewelry
When traveling, carry your filigree in cotton-lined hard boxes, placing only one piece per box to avoid damage.

Personal Care
Remove all jewelry before showering or bathing. When applying makeup or perfume, complete the process first, wash and dry your hands thoroughly, then put on your jewelry. Never spray perfume directly on filigree pieces.

Cleaning Filigree Jewelry
Gently remove visible dirt with a soft, small brush. For tarnished silver filigree, immerse the piece in a commercial silver or gold cleaning solution. For a thorough restoration, professional cleaning using ultrasonic or tumbling methods will bring back the original brilliance.

Repairing Filigree
Always entrust repairs to a professional jeweler. They have the expertise to restore and polish your fine filigree pieces to their original splendour and beauty.
