General Tips
To preserve the integrity and beauty of your earrings, please follow our care tips:
- Keep pieces separate to prevent scratches
- Always hang your earrings when not in use to maintain the shape and drape of the fringe.
- Always wear backings – it’s the golden rule to avoid losing a beloved earring.
- Keep them dry – avoid exposure to water and direct sunlight, which can weaken thread and fade colors.
- Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, or sprays, which can leave residue on beads and thread.
- Gently wipe with a microfiber cloth to clean and restore shine.
- Do not pull or tug on the fringe – treat them with the same care you’d give a delicate textile.
- Store in a dry space – never in a bathroom, where moisture can damage the materials over time.
These simple steps will help ensure your earrings remain as radiant and strong as the day they were made.
