Jewellery Care & Maintenance
Jewellery is more than just adornment, it carries emotion, artistry, and heritage. Whether it’s timeless gold, elegant 925 silver, or intricate handcrafted designs, a little care ensures that your favourite pieces continue to shine with the same brilliance for years to come.
How to Handle Your Fine Jewellery :
• Store Separately: Every piece of jewellery should be stored separately in a soft pouch or a box lined with cloth or velvet to prevent scratches and tangling.
• Wipe After Use: Always wipe your jewellery gently with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing it to remove oils, sweat, or makeup residues.
• Avoid Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from sweat, perfume, and chemicals such as hair sprays or henna, as they can alter the metal’s natural colour and sheen.
• Be Gentle During Chores: Avoid wearing jewellery while performing household tasks or heavy activities, as it may cause chipping, deformity, or wear-down.
• Professional Cleaning: Get your jewellery professionally washed or polished occasionally to remove deep-seated dirt and restore its shine.
Basic Care for 925 Silver :
• Regular Maintenance: Clean your silver jewellery regularly to prevent tarnish and maintain its natural shine. Routine cleaning removes dirt and delays oxidation.
• Proper Storage: Store your silver pieces in airtight, moisture-free containers. Exposure to air and humidity accelerates tarnishing, so keeping them sealed extends their lifespan significantly.
How to Clean 925 Silver Jewellery :
• Routine Polishing: Use the soft polishing cloth provided by us to gently clean your jewellery. It effectively removes surface tarnish without scratching.
• Homemade Cleaning: If you prefer natural solutions, mix a small amount of baking soda with water to create a soft paste. Apply it gently over tarnished areas, rub lightly, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a soft cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Tools: Never use scrubbing brushes or abrasive materials. These can scratch or permanently damage the surface of your silver accessories.

Jewellery care isn’t complicated, it’s about consistency and mindfulness. By protecting your pieces from chemicals, moisture, and harsh handling, you help them retain their elegance for years.
At Valasa, every piece is made with care, and with just a little love from you, it can stay timeless, just like the memories it holds.
