Care advice
Alvalyster's products are made of high-quality material and intended to last a lifetime. As with so much else, however, basic care is important to keep them in good condition - please read the care advice below!
STORAGE : When you are not wearing your jewellery, store your jewelery in a dry, airtight place eg. in the jewelery box or alternatively in a Zip bag (if it is included) which you then put into the jewelery box.
Avoid : Do your best not to expose the jewelry to water (don't leave your jewelry in the bathroom while you shower). Avoid storing the jewelry near other metals or jewelry boxes that contain other metals.
Avoid perfume and hand cream coming into contact with the jewelry so that they do not oxidize. Even some natural gemstones are sensitive to perfume.
If the piece has an oxide layer as part of the design, avoid washing with water or using a polishing cloth on the oxidation as this will damage/remove the oxide layer.
Cleaning : 925 Silver can oxidize over time (this is a natural process for silver). Keep your jewelry as good as new by brushing off dirt from the jewelry (e.g. with a toothbrush) in lukewarm water with a little dish soap in it. Dry with a non-abrasive cloth and then polish the jewelry with a silver polishing cloth.
