jewelry care
While dirt and residue can be cleaned with a little mild dishwashing liquid and warm water, it’s very difficult to remove tarnish without harming the semi-precious stones and pearls. On gold items, you also risk removing some of the gold plating, so it’s best to remove your jewelry when bathing or washing dishes.
Since the best protection is preventative, each piece of jewelry we ship comes in an airtight, zippered anti-tarnish baggy which protects your gold and silver jewelry from scratches and tarnish. Your item should always be stored in that baggy to keep it looking its best.
If you are using your own plain baggies to store jewelry, you may want to purchase Hagerty’s anti-tarnish strips. Just place a strip in the baggy with the blank side touching your jewelry and the printed side against the baggy. It will be effective for approximately 6 months. If you keep your jewelry items in the baggies when you're not wearing them, they’ll look amazing for YEARS!!!
