Why to handle plated jewelry with care
✨ Full article:
The plated jewelry is beautiful, but delicate.
Plated jewelry (like those in brass with a gold or silver finish) is a perfect compromise between aesthetics and affordable price.
Their outer coating makes them shiny and chic, but precisely because it is a plating, it is essential to pay attention to how they are worn, cleaned, and stored.
What does "plating" mean?
Plated means that a base metal (such as brass) has been coated with a thin layer of a more precious metal, such as gold or silver.
The result is a jewel with a precious look, but lighter and more accessible. However, being just an outer layer, it can wear out over time if not treated with care.
Why is it important to take care of it?

🔁 To make the plating last longer

How to care for plated jewelry
Here are some simple but valuable tips:
✅ 1. Avoid contact with water and perfumes
"Remove them before taking a shower, swimming, or spraying perfume. Humidity and chemical agents can damage the plating."
✅ 2. Do not wear them during training
Sweat can accelerate surface wear. It's better to leave them at home while you exercise.
✅ 3. Store them correctly
"Pack them separately in soft bags or small boxes to avoid scratching against each other."
✅ 4. Clean only with a soft cloth
No harsh detergents or brushes. Just a microfiber cloth is enough to remove dust and fingerprints.
✅ 5. Wear them as the last step
Makeup, cream, perfume… then the jewelry! Wearing them last reduces the risk of contact with corrosive substances.
