Four Simple Habits


A little goes a long way. Follow these simple guidelines to help preserve the beauty, finish and character of your jewelry.

Put Jewelry On Last

Apply perfume, lotion, hairspray and other beauty products before putting on your jewelry.

Keep It Dry

Remove jewelry before showering, swimming, exercising or washing dishes to help protect its finish.

Wipe After Wearing

Gently wipe your pieces with a soft, dry jewelry cloth to remove oils and residue before storing.

Store With Care

Keep pieces individually in a soft pouch or jewelry box to help prevent scratches and tangling.
KNOW YOUR MATERIALS

Care That's Right for Your Jewelry

Different materials have different needs. Here's how to care for the pieces you'll find throughout the O & Co. collection.
GOLD

Gold-Plated & Vermeil

Keep away from water, perfume, lotions and harsh chemicals. Remove before showering, swimming and exercising, and gently wipe after wearing.
SILVER

Sterling Silver

Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time. Store it in a cool, dry place and gently polish with a silver polishing cloth when needed.
DELICATE MATERIALS

Pearls & Gemstones

Keep pearls and natural gemstones away from perfume, hairspray, water and harsh chemicals. Wipe gently after wearing and store separately.

Jewelry Care FAQs

Can I wear my jewelry in the shower?

We recommend removing your jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising. Water, soaps, and chemicals can reduce the longevity of plated finishes and affect certain gemstones.

Will my jewelry tarnish?

Sterling silver naturally develops tarnish over time and can be gently polished with a silver polishing cloth when needed. Gold-plated jewelry will gradually show signs of wear with regular use. Proper care helps preserve its beauty for longer.

Can I wear my jewelry while sleeping?

We recommend removing jewelry before sleeping to help prevent tangling, bending, scratching, or unnecessary wear.

How should I clean my jewelry?

Wipe each piece gently with a soft polishing cloth after wearing. Avoid abrasive cleaners, ultrasonic cleaners, and harsh household chemicals unless specifically recommended for the material.

How should I store my jewelry?

Store each piece individually in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box in a cool, dry place to help prevent scratches, tangling, and tarnishing.
