Caring for your easthope treasures

Preventing Tarnish


To maintain your jewellery's brilliance, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures, humidity, and direct sunlight. Tarnishing can result from contact with soaps, perfumes, lotions, and oils. Remember to remove your jewellery before showering, bathing, swimming, exercising, or sleeping.

Cleaning Tips

Polish your jewellery with a soft microfibre cloth for regular upkeep. Avoid chemicals on gold-plated items. Glass can be gently cleaned with luke warm, soapy water; be sure to dry it completely afterward before placing back onto hoops or chains.

Caring for your Easthope Pieces

Storage Suggestions

Store each piece separately in the provided Easthope pouch or a fabric-lined case to prevent scratching, tangling, and tarnishing. Keeping metals separate helps extend their life and shine. We are working on some travel cases, watch this space. We recommend keeping glass pieces in their boxes to avoid stress.

Special Care for

Glass, Pearls, and Vintage Pieces
