Thank you for purchasing our handcrafted jewellery pieces and here are few tips to help you keep your pieces in pristine condition.

• Your piece of jewellery is handmade and crafted to last. To keep it in the best possible condition, have it checked annually. This is a free service if you come by our workshop that we offer with any of our own designs and bespoke pieces.
• If you would like to give your piece a little clean at home, it is advisable to use warm, soapy water and a very soft toothbrush. Soak the piece for a little while and then gently brush away any dirt with the toothbrush.
• Avoid wearing your jewellery in the shower/bath. This is particularly important for gold or rhodium plated jewellery. In general, your jewellery should be the last thing you wear to prevent them from the damaging effects of perfume and beauty/grooming and products.
• Where possible, avoid wear and tear on your piece of fine jewellery by taking it off when doing any heavy manual labour, gardening, lifting weights at the gym or similar activities. Do not forget to remove your unique pieces of jewellery before you go for swimming in the sea and especially in SWIMMING POOLS!!!!
• Porous gemstones and pearls should be protected by avoiding direct contact with harsh chemicals, perfume, or body lotion.
• PUNCTUM Jewellery Workshop strongly recommends storing your jewellery in individual boxes or pouches and keeping pearls from long exposure to direct sunlight.
• Avoid crowding jewellery during storage as they will scratch if rubbed against each other. It will be ideal to keep the sterling silver or plated jewellery in its original packaging in a designated dark space i.e., a drawer, to keep it from tarnishing.

 And remember this golden rule… your jewellery must always be the last thing on and first thing off.
