Taking care of your jewellery is key to preserving its shine, beauty, and durability. Odyssey pieces are designed for a lifetime of wear, but with proper care, they will continue to look as stunning as the day you got them.
Everyday Care
Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe away body oils, lotions, and perfumes after each wear.
Avoid direct contact with harsh chemicals, as they can damage both metals and natural stones.
While our jewellery is water-resistant, removing it before showering or swimming will help prolong its beauty.
To protect your jewellery from premature wear or damage, keep it away from:
Sleep – Remove before bed to prevent accidental bending or breakage.
Shower – Soap and shampoo can dull metals and gemstones.
Swim – Chlorine and salt water can be harsh on precious metals and natural stones.
Sprays – Perfumes, hairsprays, and cleaning agents can tarnish or weaken materials.
Sweat – Extended exposure to sweat, especially during exercise, can affect the longevity of your jewellery.
Gold Filled Care
Gold filled jewellery is crafted with a thick layer of gold pressure-bonded to a base metal, making it highly durable and tarnish-resistant.
Safe for daily wear but should be kept away from harsh chemicals for extended longevity.
Clean with warm water and mild soap, then dry with a soft cloth.
Store in an airtight pouch to minimise exposure to moisture.
Gold Vermeil Care
Gold vermeil features a thick layer of 18k gold over solid sterling silver, offering a luxurious and durable finish.
Avoid prolonged exposure to water and chemicals to maintain its brilliance.
Clean gently with a dry, soft cloth after wearing.
Store separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box to prevent scratches and oxidation.
Natural Gemstone Care
Natural gemstones are delicate and require extra care to maintain their vibrance and energy.
Keep away from chemicals, perfumes, and excessive moisture, as some stones are porous.
Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth never use ultrasonic cleaners or abrasives.
Store separately to prevent scratching against other pieces.
Storage Tips
Always fasten necklaces to avoid tangling.
Store each piece separately in a cool, dry, and dark place to prevent tarnishing.
Use an airtight container or anti-tarnish pouch to minimise exposure to moisture and air.
Tarnish Prevention & Cleaning
Even high-quality jewellery can tarnish over time due to natural exposure to air and skin oils.
Ensure your jewellery is completely dry before storing.
If tarnishing occurs, gently polish with a jewellery cloth or use a mild cleaning solution designed for your jewellery type.
With proper care and love, your Odyssey jewellery will stay beautiful and cherished for a lifetime!
