Gold Plated Silver

Gold-plated jewelry has a thin layer of gold over sterling silver, which can wear down over time with improper care.

What to Avoid

• Water, especially frequent exposure
• Friction (stacking, rubbing against other jewelry)
• Chemicals like perfumes, lotions, and cleaning agents

How to Store

• Store in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box
• Keep pieces separate to prevent scratching
• Avoid humid environments

How to Clean

• Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing
• Do not use polishing cloths meant for silver (they can remove the plating)
• Avoid soaking or scrubbing

Best Practices

• Put on after applying skincare or fragrance
• Remove before showering, swimming, or exercising
• Treat as a delicate finish—wear with care to extend plating life

General Jewelry Care Tips

• Last on, first off: put jewelry on after getting ready, and remove it before bed
• Avoid direct contact with chemicals and moisture whenever possible
• Clean gently and regularly rather than waiting for buildup
• Store thoughtfully to prevent scratches and tarnishing
