Care Guide

SILK SCARVES

Your scarf is more than an accessory — it’s wearable art. A little extra care will keep it looking beautiful for years to come.

  • Dry Clean Only: For the best results, take your scarf to a trusted professional who specialises in delicate fabrics.

  • Handle With Care: Jewellery or zips can snag silk, so be mindful when pairing with accessories.

  • Avoid Harsh Contact: Keep away from chemicals, perfume sprays, and even a surprise rain shower.

  • Store Smart: Keep in a cool, dry space — far from direct sunlight — to keep the colours as vibrant as the day you unwrapped it. We recommend storing your scarf in our 100% natural cotton Scarf Sanctuary Bag.

Think of it as an heirloom piece — timeless, expressive, and designed to journey with you.

Gold Vermeil

Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe your gold vermeil jewellery after each wear. This helps remove any oils or residue. Refrain from using abrasive materials or rough fabrics for cleaning, as they may scratch the delicate gold surface. If needed, give your jewellery an occasional deep clean with a mild soap and lukewarm water. Gently scrub with a soft brush and pat dry with a clean cloth. Remember, proper care ensures that your 18ct gold vermeil jewellery retains its luster and stays a dazzling part of your collection for years to come.

Sterling Silver

Gently wipe your jewellery with a soft lint free cloth after wearing, to remove your natural skin oils, Do not use abrasive cleaners or cloths. Keep away from damp and warm conditions. If it becomes tarnished, gently wipe with a silver polishing cloth.

Bronze

Excessive cleaning and polishing can also wear out your bronze jewellery and affect its durability so do this only when required. However, wiping your bronze jewellery before and after wearing is recommended as it cleans the piece without affecting its luster. When storing your bronze jewellery, it is important that there is no moisture present.
