Jewelry Care Guide: Brass and Gold-Plated Items

At CelebrityHack, we want your jewelry to shine and last. To help you keep your brass and gold-plated pieces looking their best, we’ve put together some important care instructions.

1. Avoid Harsh Chemicals and Abrasives

To preserve the beauty of your brass and gold-plated jewelry, it’s essential to avoid contact with harsh chemicals, such as perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products. These substances can cause discoloration and damage to the finish. Additionally, avoid abrasive materials that can scratch or wear down the plating.

2. Remove Jewelry Before Activities

Take off your jewelry before engaging in activities that may expose it to potential damage. This includes activities such as swimming, exercising, gardening, or any situation where the piece might come into contact with rough surfaces or chemicals.

3. Store Separately to Prevent Tangling and Scratching

When not in use, store your brass and gold-plated jewelry separately to prevent tangling and minimize the risk of scratches. Use individual pouches, jewelry boxes, or soft cloth wraps to protect each piece.

4. Keep Away from Moisture

Avoid exposing your jewelry to moisture, as it can cause the brass to tarnish and the gold plating to wear off more quickly. Before storing, make sure your jewelry is completely dry. If your jewelry does come into contact with water, pat it gently with a clean, dry cloth to remove any excess moisture.

5. Regular Cleaning

To maintain the luster of your brass and gold-plated items, gently clean them with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the plating. For tougher spots, you can use a mild, non-abrasive jewelry cleaner specifically designed for plated metals.

By following these care instructions, you can ensure that your brass and gold-plated jewelry continues to dazzle and delight for years to come. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
