SCOSHA Jewelry is meant to be worn comfortably every day and most of our pieces require very little care. That being said, here are some tips to keep our jewelry looking beautiful.
GOLD
Considered one of the most precious metals in the world. Gold jewelry can either be yellow, white or rose gold; our collections are designed in 10k, 14k, and 18k.
Buying a jewelry cleaning solution specifically created for gold is the safest choice for taking care of your pieces, but here’s our favorite at-home option:
STERLING SILVER
Sterling silver is an alloyed metal, normally made of 92.5% pure silver and other metals. This metal tarnishes when it comes in contact with oxygen. The best way to prevent this is by wearing your silver jewelry often, the oils from your skin will help prevent tarnishing.
It is best to remove your sterling silver jewelry during household chores. Substances with additional sulfur such as household cleaners, chlorinated water, perspiration, and rubber will accelerate corrosion and tarnish.
To clean sterling silver we recommend using a gentle soap or baking soda with water. After you’ve given your jewelry a good cleaning, you can finish the process by using a polishing cloth that’s specifically for sterling silver.
GOLD VERMEIL
Gold vermeil is sterling silver jewelry with a thick gold coating, it is less expensive than solid gold jewelry but looks the same. The sterling silver is covered in a layer of 14k gold that must be at least 1.5 microns. Scosha’s vermeil pieces are covered much thicker at 3 microns of gold.
Gold vermeil is great for everyday wear, here are some things to avoid in order to keep your jewelry looking amazing:
GOLD PLATING
Gold plated jewelry is created by applying a thin layer of gold onto the surface of the base metal. To maintain the appearance of your pieces we recommend the following:
DIAMONDS AND PRECIOUS GEMSTONES
Various gemstones have different properties. This means that some will require different care than others.
FIBERS AND WAXED NYLONS
Although they are water-resistant and durable, removing woven jewelry before showering and swimming are recommended for longer-lasting pieces. If the braid does become worn, please contact info@scosha.com for re-braiding information.
