Caring for your Vermeil and Gold Plated Adornments by Douriean:

• Avoid Moisture: Vermeil and gold plated jewelry is sensitive to moisture. Remove your adornments before swimming, showering, or engaging in activities that could expose them to water.

• Chemicals and Cosmetics: Shield your vermeil and gold plated jewelry from direct contact with chemicals, such as perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products. Apply these products before wearing your jewelry and ensure they are fully absorbed.

• Gentle Cleaning: To clean your vermeil and gold plated pieces, gently wipe them with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the gold plating.

• Storage: Store your vermeil and gold plated jewelry in a cool, dry place, preferably in individual pouches or compartments to prevent scratching and tangling.

• Limited Exposure to Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the gold plating to fade over time. Keep your vermeil and gold plated pieces away from excessive sunlight when not in use.

• Regular Wear: Believe it or not, wearing your vermeil jewelry can help maintain its luster. The natural oils on your skin can create a protective barrier and prevent tarnishing.

• Polishing Cloth: Use a specialized jewelry polishing cloth to gently buff your vermeil pieces periodically. This can help restore their shine and remove any light tarnish.

Remember, your vermeil and gold plated adornments are a labor of art and craftsmanship. Treat them with the care and reverence they deserve, and they will continue to grace you with their beauty for years to come.
