Caring For Your Jewelry

Protecting Your Jewelry

All silver jewellery will naturally tarnish over time. Tarnishing is not a fault and steps can be taken to ensure your jewellery does not tarnish. Using a soft lint free cloth to clean silver, 18ct gold and rose gold vermeil will keep jewellery looking shiny and tarnish free.

Ideally store your Leilani Shells purchases in a dark, cool and dry place within the box provided to help reduce tarnishing, scratching and tangling. Our boxes are  designed with a new technology that we have developed for your jewelry last longer.

Silver is a bendable precious metal, any pressure applied could cause damage. We would advise when transporting that your jewellery is kept within a box so no external pressures is accidentally applied.

Gold plated silver may fade if the care instructions are not adhered to. Please do not expose gold plated silver to water, perfumes or lotions as this may cause the plating to fade. Gold plated silver may naturally fade over time.

We recommend that you remove jewellery while in water and avoid spraying perfume or applying creams where your jewellery will have contact.

Avoid extreme temperatures, humidity and sunlight. Any contact with perfumes/ cosmetics and chemicals will cause discolouration to semi precious metals. This is not a fault and can be avoided by caring for your jewellery as detailed above.

Caring For Your Gemstones

Gemstones should never be worn around hot water, harsh chemicals and cleaners. You can clean most gemstones with a soft, damp cloth after wearing. Very porous stones such as turquoise and emeralds should be cleaned using an untreated, dry, soft cloth only.

Do not use tissue paper or paper towels to clean as they can cause scratching.

We use natural gemstones which may contain internal inclusions, adding to the beauty and uniqueness of each individual gem.
