Care Guide
If treated right, our jewelry will last a lifetime.
Tips for daily wearing.
At Codeville, we believe your jewelry should be cherished for a lifetime.
To preserve its brilliance and integrity, we recommend these simple but essential practices:
Tip 1
Chlorine is gold’s greatest adversary. Prolonged exposure weakens its structure, so always remove your jewellery before entering pools, spas, or hot tubs.
Tip 2
Gold is a naturally soft and precious metal, making it more vulnerable to scratches, dings, and dents. Remove your rings when performing any activities that could put them at risk.
Tip 3
Soaps and shampoos can leave a dulling residue on your jewelry. To maintain its radiant shine, take it off before showering or bathing.
Tip 4
Household cleaning products, particularly those containing acids or abrasives, can compromise your jewelry’s finish. Always remove or cover your pieces while cleaning.
Tip 5
Make your jewelry the last step in your routine. Perfumes, hairsprays, lotions, and cosmetics can all diminish gold’s natural luster. Apply them first, then adorn yourself.
Cleaning tips.
Tip 1
Prepare a solution of 10 parts warm water to 2 parts mild dish soap. Immerse your jewelry for approximately 20 minutes, then delicately polish with an ultra-soft brush. Rinse with clean water and carefully pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Never use paper tissues or towels, as their fibers may leave micro-scratches on the surface.
Tip 2
Gold does not require excessive cleaning. Reserve at-home care for moments when your pieces appear visibly dulled or when a natural patina has developed. Over-cleaning may reduce the longevity of your jewelry’s finish.
Tip 3
Rubbing alcohol is an excellent option for sanitizing and refreshing your jewelry’s shine. However, never use bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can permanently damage gold.
Tip 4
During each cleaning, take time to examine your jewellery closely. If you notice loose stones, weakened clasps, or other signs of damage, set the piece aside. Cleaning or polishing a damaged jewel may worsen the problem.
Tip 5
Even with attentive care at home, jewelry benefits from a professional cleaning and inspection once per year. Our specialists ensure every detail, from the polish of the metal to the security of the settings, is preserved to the highest standard.
