What is gold filled ?
Gold filled is often used in the US and is gaining more and more popularity in Europe. In the jewellery industry, gold filled legally requires at least 5% pure gold by weight, 100 times more gold than gold-plated jewellery.
How do you care for gold filled jewellery?
Caring for gold filled jewellery is similar to caring for other types of jewellery. We know you love them and they are very dear to you, but we recommend that you don't wear them every moment of the day.
Remove your jewelry when exercising, cleaning, showering, or bathing or swimming in the pool or sea. We also do not recommend wearing them while sleeping.
Cosmetics, lotions, or perfumes can make jewellery look dull. That is why we recommend that you do not spray perfume directly on it.
How do you clean gold filled jewellery?
You can gently wipe the jewellery with a soft cloth. Regular cleaning helps preserve its shine for a longer. Avoid intensive rubbing that can scratch it. We recommend that you clean it a few times a year with warm water and a few drops of liquid soap. Mix well in a bowl and add the jewellery for 2-3 minutes, then place it on a soft towel, gently cleaning with a soft brush or cloth. After that, rinse under lukewarm water and leave it to dry on a soft cloth.
How do you store gold filled jewellery?
You can best keep it in a dry place, as moisture, sunlight and heat can cause oxidation. The box in which the jewellery arrives it is a good place to store it. To take your jewellery with you on your travels, you can purchase our Eco Travel Pouch separately. It's made from a soft-to-the-touch material that's easy to pack and carry, and has a leather-like texture.
