Care Guide

How to Care for Your Artificial Gold Jewelry

With proper care, your artificial gold jewelry from Kuber's Jewellers can maintain its shine and beauty for years. Follow these simple guidelines:

Daily Wear Tips

  1. Put jewelry on last: Apply perfume, makeup, lotions, and sunscreen before wearing your jewelry
  2. Remove before water activities: Take off jewelry before bathing, swimming, washing dishes, or exercising
  3. Wipe after wearing: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove sweat and oils after each use
  4. Avoid chemicals: Keep away from cleaning products, bleach, chlorine, and hand sanitizer

Storage Tips

  • Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or jewelry box
  • Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
  • Use airtight zip-lock bags to prevent oxidation
  • Add a small silica gel packet to absorb moisture
  • Never store in the bathroom (humidity damages plating)

What to Avoid

  • ❌ Chlorine and saltwater
  • ❌ Direct heat sources and sunlight
  • ❌ Abrasive cloths or rough surfaces
  • ❌ Chemical cleaning products
  • ❌ Ultrasonic or steam cleaners
  • ❌ Sleeping with jewelry on
  • ❌ Wearing during exercise or sports

Cleaning Your Jewelry

  1. Dampen a soft cloth with lukewarm water
  2. Gently wipe the surface of the jewelry
  3. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth
  4. Do NOT soak in water or use soap

When Plating Wears Off

Gold plating naturally wears over time with regular use — this is normal and expected for all gold-plated jewelry worldwide. Typical lifespan depends on usage:

  • Light wear (occasional): 2+ years
  • Regular wear (few times per week): 1–2 years
  • Heavy wear (daily): 6 months–1 year
