JEWELLERY CARE GUIDE
Because beautiful jewellery deserves lasting care.
At PUSHYA, every piece is thoughtfully crafted to be worn, loved, and cherished. Proper care helps maintain the shine, finish, and beauty of your jewellery for years to come.
Whether your jewellery is crafted in 925 Sterling Silver, Rhodium Finish, Gold Plating, or Rose Gold Plating, following these care guidelines will help preserve its appearance and longevity.
Understanding Your Jewellery
Silver jewellery naturally reacts to elements in the environment over time. Factors such as moisture, air, perfumes, cosmetics, sweat, and chemicals may cause tarnishing or affect plated finishes.
This is a natural process and does not indicate a defect in the jewellery.
Daily Care Tips
To keep your jewellery looking its best:
✔ Put on your jewellery after applying makeup, perfume, lotion, or hairspray.
✔ Remove jewellery before sleeping whenever possible.
✔ Store jewellery separately to prevent scratches and tangling.
✔ Wipe your jewellery gently with a soft, dry cloth after each use.
✔ Handle jewellery carefully to avoid accidental bending or damage.
Avoid Contact With
To preserve the finish and shine of your jewellery, avoid direct contact with:
-
Perfumes and fragrances
-
Moisturizers and lotions
-
Hair products
-
Sanitizers
-
Detergents and cleaning products
-
Chlorinated water
-
Salt water
-
Cosmetics and makeup
Chemical exposure may accelerate tarnishing and reduce the lifespan of plated finishes.
Water & Moisture
We recommend removing your jewellery before:
-
Bathing
-
Swimming
-
Showering
-
Exercising
-
Sauna or steam exposure
Excessive moisture may affect silver and plated jewellery over time.
Storage Recommendations
Proper storage significantly extends the life of your jewellery.
We recommend:
-
Storing jewellery in the original PUSHYA box or pouch.
-
Keeping pieces in a cool, dry place.
-
Using airtight storage whenever possible.
-
Storing each piece separately to avoid scratches.
Avoid storing jewellery in humid environments such as bathrooms.
Care for 925 Sterling Silver Jewellery
925 Sterling Silver may naturally develop a darker appearance or tarnish over time due to exposure to air and moisture.
To maintain its shine:
-
Clean gently with a soft polishing cloth.
-
Store in a dry environment.
-
Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and chemicals.
Tarnishing is a natural characteristic of silver and can usually be restored through proper cleaning and maintenance.
Care for Gold-Plated & Rose Gold-Plated Jewellery
Gold and rose gold plating are surface finishes applied over silver.
To maximize plating longevity:
-
Avoid daily exposure to water.
-
Avoid perfumes and cosmetic products directly on the jewellery.
-
Remove jewellery before sleeping or exercising.
-
Store separately from other jewellery.
The lifespan of plating varies depending on usage, skin chemistry, and care habits.
Natural fading of plating over time is expected and is not considered a manufacturing defect.
Care for Rhodium-Finished Jewellery
Rhodium coating enhances shine and provides additional protection.
To preserve the finish:
-
Keep away from harsh chemicals.
-
Clean with a soft cloth only.
-
Avoid abrasive cleaners and polishing compounds.
With regular wear, rhodium finishes may gradually wear and may require professional replating over time.
Cleaning Your Jewellery
For routine cleaning:
-
Use a soft microfiber or jewellery polishing cloth.
-
Gently wipe away dirt, oils, and fingerprints.
-
Store immediately after cleaning.
Do not use:
-
Toothpaste
-
Harsh chemicals
-
Abrasive materials
-
Household cleaning agents
These may damage the metal or finish.
