Chemicals

Certain chemicals can harm your precious items, we use some of them so often we don’t think of them as chemicals. Hairspray, perfume, nail varnish remover, even perspiration can all affect jewellery. If you are going to wear hairspray or other cosmetics, put them on first and give them a chance to dry before putting on your jewellery.

Chlorine is particularly damaging, so if you are going swimming leave your jewellery locked in the safe at home. No safe? They are available for less than the price of a tank of petrol, how does that compare to the price of your engagement ring?
