Jewelry Care
At Micha Jewelry, we use quality metals and high-grade plating to ensure durability and long-lasting shine. However, all jewellery — including plated pieces and 925 Sterling Silver — can experience natural wear over time.
Proper care is essential to maintain your jewellery’s beauty and prevent early tarnishing.
✨ Important to Know
-
Individual Factors: Each person’s body chemistry is different. Acidic sweat and skin pH levels may accelerate tarnishing or discoloration.
-
Jewellery naturally ages with exposure to air, moisture and friction.
-
Regular care will significantly extend the life of your pieces.
💎 Jewellery Care Tips
1. Avoid Harsh Environments
Remove jewellery before exercising, showering, swimming or washing hands. Sweat, chlorine, salt water and steam can damage plating.
2. Apply Before
Always apply lotions, perfumes, oils and makeup before putting on your jewellery. Allow products to fully dry.
3. Last On, First Off
Put jewellery on last when getting ready and remove it first to minimise friction and snagging.
4. Avoid Chemicals
Do not use jewellery cleaners, antibacterial soaps or tarnish removers on plated jewellery.
5. Daily Cleaning
Gently wipe with a soft cloth after wear to remove oils and residue.
6. Proper Storage
Store pieces separately in your Micha Jewelry dust bag, box or airtight packaging to reduce oxidation and friction.
7. Give Them a Break
Avoid sleeping in your jewellery and allow pieces occasional rest from daily wear.
Tennis Bracelet & Delicate Items Care
Tennis bracelets and delicate designs must be handled gently:
-
Do not twist when opening or closing the clasp
-
Always pull straight — never use a twisting motion
-
Put on last and remove first to avoid snagging
-
Avoid catching prongs on clothing, as this may loosen stones
Stones are hand-set without glue, so proper handling is essential.
Metal Sensitivity
-
Customers sensitive to copper or brass should choose our Stainless Steel pieces.
-
Our 925 Sterling Silver jewellery contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% alloy (typically copper), which may be a better option for some individuals.
-
If silver oxidises, gently polish with a silver polishing cloth.
We are unable to take responsibility for individual allergic reactions, as sensitivities vary from person to person.
If you are unsure which material suits you best, please contact our support team — we are happy to assist.
