How to Care for Your Jewellery: Tips to Keep It Timeless

Jewellery isn’t just an accessory — it’s a story. At Avocado, every piece is an art invented with care using Sterling Silver, Gold, Brass, Copper, gemstones, and freshwater pearls, making each creation unique and full of meaning.
1. Wear It Often — Yes, Really!
It may sound surprising, but one of the best ways to prevent tarnish on your silver jewellery is to wear it regularly. Your skin’s natural oils help keep silver bright and clean.
Let your jewellery live with you — not just sit in a drawer.
2. Avoid Contact with Water, Perfumes & Lotions
While our jewellery is designed to last, water and chemicals can speed up tarnishing, especially with silver and gold-filled pieces. Be mindful to:
Remove jewellery before swimming or showering
Apply perfume, lotion, or hair products before putting jewellery on
Avoid prolonged exposure to humidity
3. Remove Before Bed, Exercise, or Cleaning
Your jewellery needs rest too!
Sleeping or sweating while wearing jewellery can wear down its finish or cause subtle damage over time — especially for delicate chains or gemstone settings. Take it off during:
Sleep
Workouts
Household chores or gardening
4. Clean Gently & Naturally
To keep your pieces glowing, clean them occasionally using:
A soft, lint-free polishing cloth
Warm water with a tiny drop of mild soap (only when necessary)
A gentle pat dry — never rub harshly
Tip: Never use chemical jewellery cleaners, especially on pearls or gemstones. They can damage natural finishes and materials.
5. Store it Right
Proper storage keeps jewellery untangled, untarnished, and safe from scratches. We recommend:
Keeping your jewellery in a soft pouch or airtight jewellery box
Storing silver pieces separately to avoid tarnish transfer
Lining storage spaces with natural fabric like linen or cotton
At Avocado, all our packaging is eco-conscious and perfect for long-term storage too.
Sustainable Jewellery Deserves Sustainable Care
We believe in slow fashion and lasting beauty. Caring for your jewellery not only preserves its brilliance but honours the earth-friendly values it was made with.
With mindful care, your jewellery will not just last — it will grow more beautiful with time.
Let It Tell Your Story
Every ring, bracelet, and necklace you wear becomes part of your personal journey. These pieces are made to mark moments, carry meaning, and reflect you. So treat them well — and they’ll stay with you, season after season.
