Jewelry Care Guide

At Sahaava, every piece is thoughtfully crafted to be worn, loved, and cherished. With mindful care, your Jewelry will retain its beauty for years to come.

18k Gold Vermeil

(925 Sterling Silver Base)

Gold vermeil features a thick layer of real gold over sterling silver. Gentle handling helps preserve its radiant finish.

Do
• Store in a dry, soft pouch or Jewelry box
• Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing
• Apply perfume, lotions, and makeup before putting Jewelry on

Avoid
• Water, swimming, showering, and heavy sweating
• Perfume, hairspray, sunscreen, and cleaning products
• Silver or gold polishing cloths, which can wear down the plating

Note: Over time, natural wear may cause the gold layer to soften, revealing the silver beneath. This is normal and varies based on skin chemistry and frequency of wear.

Rhodium-Plated 925 Sterling Silver

Rhodium plating gives silver a bright white shine and helps slow tarnishing, but the finish can wear with time.

Do
• Store in an airtight pouch or anti-tarnish bag
• Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear
• Keep pieces dry when not in use

Avoid
• Water, humidity, and sweat
• Chemicals such as perfume, lotion, and household cleaners
• Silver dip cleaners or polishing cloths, which may strip the rhodium layer

Note: As the rhodium naturally wears, the warmer tone of sterling silver may appear. Professional replating can restore the bright finish if desired.

Solid Gold Jewelry

Solid gold is enduring and suitable for everyday elegance, yet still benefits from gentle care.

Do
• Clean with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush
• Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth
• Store pieces separately to prevent scratches

Avoid
• Harsh chemicals such as chlorine and bleach
• Rough impact that may bend delicate designs

Tip: Occasional professional polishing can revive your piece’s original brilliance.

Platinum Jewelry

Platinum is rare, strong, and naturally white. Over time, it develops a soft patina that many consider part of its character.

Do
• Clean with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush
• Store separately to avoid scratching other Jewelry
• Have settings checked occasionally to ensure stones remain secure

Avoid
• Abrasive surfaces
• Exposure to harsh chemicals where possible

Note: Fine surface scratches are a natural part of platinum’s wear. A jeweler can polish the piece to restore a brighter shine if preferred.

✨Thoughtful care keeps your Sahaava Jewelry luminous for years to come.
