No matter how busy life gets, it’s important to look after your jewellery. All it takes is just a few simple steps to ensure that your treasured pieces are tucked away safely when you remove them. Every piece of Whitby Jet is made to last with many being passed down through generations. If looked after correctly your favourite pieces will stay with you for a lifetime.
Polish Regularly
Whitby Jet is known worldwide for its high sheen. To keep this mirror-like shine looking its best all year round it’s worth buying one of our professional polishing cloths that are perfect for maintaining the brilliant lustre that we all love. We stock Whitby Jet Polishing Cloths that also clean the silver part of your jewellery too in sizes small and large.
Store Safely
Never be tempted to leave your Whitby Jet jewellery on the windowsill or bedside table when you take it off. It will easily become damaged. Instead invest in a beautiful jewellery box complete with neat compartments to store your pieces. The range that we stock look chic around the home with smaller options to take with you on your adventures. Jewellery wraps or cases are the perfect way to travel with your favourite jewellery tucked neatly away in your suitcase or hand luggage. Buying suitable storage will ensure that your jewellery will not become scratched.
Take Off When Cleaning
There are certain times during the day when we advise to remove your jewellery pieces to avoid damage. When using products to clean the bathroom or kitchen it’s wise to take off your Whitby Jet accessories as the abrasive chemicals can cause harm. Hairspray and perfume can alter the rare stone too so we would advise to put on your jewellery after you’ve gotten ready. Another time where we would say it’s not the best time to wear Jet is when swimming or showering as the repeated exposure to water, soap and chlorine would affect the beautifully polished surface. Often these occasions are the perfect time to use your jewellery box, wrap or case.
