Care Guide
Congratulations on your purchase from Forrest and Mae! To ensure your pieces retain their beauty and shine for years to come, follow these simple care instructions.
Keep it Dry
- Moisture can cause tarnishing, so it's essential to remove your jewellery before swimming, showering, or engaging in activities where it may come into contact with water and/or sweating.
Store Properly
- When you're not wearing your jewellery, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Consider using a jewellery box or pouch to prevent scratching and tarnishing.
Avoid Chemicals
- Chemicals such as perfume, lotion, hairspray, and household cleaners can accelerate tarnishing.
- Always apply these products before putting on your jewellery to minimize exposure.
Clean Gently
- To remove dirt and oils, gently wipe your jewellery with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear.
- For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap diluted in warm water.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
Be Gentle with Gemstones
- If your jewellery features gemstones, take extra care to avoid harsh cleaning methods that may damage them.
- Use a soft cloth or brush to clean around the gemstones, and avoid immersing them in water for extended periods.
Professional Maintenance
- For intricate pieces or stubborn tarnish, consider seeking professional cleaning and maintenance from a reputable jeweller.
Wear with Care
- While our jewellery is durable, it can still scratch or dent with rough handling.
- Remove your jewellery before engaging in activities such as sports, gardening, or manual labour to prevent damage.
