Caring for Your Prilla Fine Jewellery & Moissanite
Congratulations on your Prilla jewellery purchase! We take immense pride in crafting each piece with meticulous attention to detail. To ensure the longevity of your exquisite fine jewellery and Moissanite pieces, proper care and maintenance are essential. Here are our top tips to help you enjoy your favourites for years to come.
General Care Tips
Remove During Activities: Always take off your jewellery when engaging in physical activities, swimming, or showering to maintain its shine and prevent damage.
Avoid Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from perfumes, cosmetics, moisturisers, and hair products. Apply these products before putting on your jewellery to avoid buildup that dulls the sparkle.
Protect from Impact: Avoid contact with hard surfaces and other jewellery to prevent scratches and chips.
Fading and Oxidation: Your Fine jewellery and Moissanite jewellery is set in sterling silver, which naturally tends to oxidize over time. We have coated the silver with 18K gold or platinum for an extra layer of protection. Please remember, while your jewellery is coated, it is not solid gold, so care is needed to maintain its shine and glow. Fading occurs over time. Regular maintenance is crucial to keep your pieces looking their best.
Avoid Water Exposure: Remove your ring before washing hands, showering, or swimming, as water can weaken the plating over time.
Exercise Caution: Avoid wearing your ring while exercising to prevent damage, dullness from perspiration, or loss.
Swimming: Chlorine and seawater can tarnish sterling silver and permanently affect the coating. Always remove your jewellery before swimming.
Gardening: Dirt and debris can damage your ring or dull its stone. Always remove your jewellery while gardening, even if wearing gloves.
Fine Jewellery Care
Every Prilla piece is crafted with care to last a lifetime. To ensure your jewellery remains stunning, follow these care tips:
-
Storing Your Jewellery: Store your jewellery in a cool, dry place in a soft, anti-tarnish pouch or resealable plastic bag to prevent scratches and moisture exposure.
-
When in Doubt, Take It Off: Remove your jewellery when swimming, gardening, exercising, cleaning, or preparing meals to avoid damage or buildup.
- Avoid Chemicals: Chemicals from cleaning products can react with the coated metals and potentially dull the Moissanite stone if trapped under the setting.
Keeping Your Jewellery Sparkling
- Daily Care: Wipe your jewellery with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove any dirt or oils.
Thank you for choosing Prilla. With a little extra care, your Moissanite jewellery will continue to shine brilliantly for years to come!
