MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Maintenance tips 

 

Polish your gold and silver pieces frequently using a polishing cloth to preserve brightness. Do this with all of your rings and charms. We do not recommend to do it on chains because this could cause damage. 

 

Polishing cloth does not take out scratches. It’s important to take care of your pieces in order to prevent them from appearing

 

You can purchase polishing cloths at Irdia.com 

 

Store your pieces separately on their Irdia bags to avoid scratches between themself or surfaces 

 

Treat all of your pieces with care. Especially the ones with pearls or gems. Avoid them from falling and hitting the floor or knocking them against hard surfaces 

 

Remove your pieces before going to the pool. Bleach could damage them 

 

Avoid applying perfume, lotions or creams directly to your pieces 

 

Avoid applying silver polishing products to your pieces, these products could be abrasive and should be only used by people with knowledge 

 

 

Cleaning

 

 It’s very important for us that you are aware silver could get dark (Oxidize) and this is totally normal 

 

Some of the reasons for this happening include:

Acid PH: A person with acid PH could get silver dark in little time, while other people could make silver shine bright 

 

Applying perfume, lotions or creams directly to your pieces 

 

Bleach 

 

Long time not wearing them 

We recommend to use especial Silver liquid cleaner. 

 

You use it like this: 

 

Let the piece inside the liquid for 10 seconds. Then wash with abundant water and dry with a soft cloth 

 

You can purchase cleaning cloths on Irdia.com 

 

*We do not recommend doing any of these on Gold pieces. Gold required special treatment. Contact us in those cases 

 

If you wish to send your piece to our atelier for repairs or special treatment email us to info@irdia.net 

 

Applying all these tips our pieces will be with you forever
