Jewelry Care Guide
At Koemi Studio, we want your special pieces to last a lifetime. To ensure the longevity and shine of your jewelry, we've put together this handy guide to help you care for your jewelry.
Gold Vermeil
Our Gold Vermeil is a luxurious layer of 14k or 18k solid gold, expertly plated onto 925 sterling silver. Unlike standard gold plating, which is typically applied to materials like brass, gold vermeil offers exceptional strength and durability.
While Gold Vermeil is designed to maintain its brilliance, it may naturally tarnish over time. However, its longevity can be significantly affected when exposed to certain elements, including water, moisture, perspiration, cosmetics such as lotions and perfumes, chlorine, sulfur, and other harsh chemicals. To ensure your Gold Vermeil jewelry remains stunning, we recommend removing it and safely storing it in your Koemi Studio jewelry box before engaging in any activities that may expose it to these environmental factors.
For cleaning, gently polish your Gold Vermeil pieces with a dry microfiber cloth to restore their luster. If you have any questions about cleaning procedures or require replating services, please feel free to reach out to our customer care team at hello@koemistudio.com
Sterling Silver
Our Sterling Silver jewelry consists of a blend of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper, creating pieces that are both lightweight and exceptionally resilient. However, Sterling Silver can develop tarnish when exposed to certain elements, including water, moisture, perspiration, cosmetics like perfumes and lotions, chlorine, sulfur, and other harsh chemicals.
To maintain the shine and prevent tarnishing, we recommend removing your Sterling Silver jewelry and storing it safely in your Koemi studio jewelry box whenever you partake in activities that might expose the jewelry to these elements. While professional cleaning is the ideal option for Sterling Silver, you can also clean it at home using a silver cleaning agent and a microfiber cloth. If you have any questions about professional cleaning or at-home cleaning procedures, don't hesitate to contact our customer care team at hello@koemistudio. By following these simple guidelines, your Koemi Studio jewelry, crafted with care and featuring various high-quality metals, will continue to shine brilliantly and accompany you on many more adventures.
