Keep your jewellery looking its best with these simple care tips:
Sterling Silver:
-
Clean Regularly: Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a silver polishing cloth to gently buff your silver jewellery. For heavier tarnish, a paste of baking soda and water can be applied with a soft cloth, then rinsed and dried thoroughly.
-
Store Properly: Keep silver jewellery in a cool, dry place. Use anti-tarnish pouches or cloth bags to reduce exposure to air.
-
Avoid Chemicals: Remove jewellery before applying lotions, perfumes, or cleaning products.
-
Professional Cleaning: For intricate or heavily tarnished pieces, consider professional cleaning by a jeweller to restore shine.
Brass:
-
Regular Cleaning: Clean with warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. Use a soft cloth to gently scrub, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
-
Prevent Tarnish: Store in zip-lock bags or airtight jewellery boxes to minimize exposure to air and moisture.
-
Avoid Chemicals: Remove jewellery before applying lotions, perfumes, or cleaning products.
-
Polishing: For a high shine, consider using a brass polish. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and test on a small area first.
Note: Regular wear can help maintain the shine of your jewellery, as natural oils from your skin can keep metals polished.
Bangle Size Guide - Find your perfect fit.
Getting the right bangle size ensures comfort and style. In the UK, bangle sizes are usually measured by the inside diameter in millimetres (mm).
How to Measure Your Size:
-
Using an Existing Bangle – Measure across the inside diameter of a bangle that already fits you.
-
Using Your Hand – Bring your thumb and little finger together, wrap a soft tape measure around the widest part of your hand, and note the measurement in millimetres. Divide by 3.14 (π) to find your diameter.
UK Bangle Size Chart:
-
Small – 60 mm (approx. 19 cm circumference)
-
Medium – 64 mm (approx. 20 cm circumference)
-
Large – 68 mm (approx. 21 cm circumference)
Tip: If you’re between sizes, go for the larger size for a comfortable fit.
