House of Tanwar Jewelry Care Guide
At House of Tanwar, every piece of jewelry is a precious heirloom crafted with passion and precision. To preserve the radiance and longevity of your treasures, please follow these expert care tips.
Daily Care
- Gently wipe your jewelry after each wear with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils and dust.
- Avoid contact with harsh chemicals such as perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and cleaning products to protect metals and stones.
- Remove jewelry before swimming, bathing, or physical activities to prevent damage.
Cleaning
- Clean your pieces with a mild soap solution and lukewarm water. Soak briefly and gently brush with a soft toothbrush near settings and intricate details.
- Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive materials.
- Polish gold and platinum with a clean cotton cloth; use a silver polishing cloth for silver pieces.
- Wipe delicate stones like pearls and opals with a soft damp cloth; avoid soaking.
- Ultrasonic cleaners should only be used on robust stones and when advised by a professional.
Storage
- Store each piece in its original House of Tanwar box or a soft pouch, separately to avoid scratches.
- Keep jewelry away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and moisture. Pearls and opals benefit from slight humidity, so avoid airtight dry conditions.
Professional Maintenance
- Have your jewelry inspected and professionally cleaned at least annually. We offer expert polishing, setting checks, and rhodium plating for white gold.
- Trust only certified gemologists or jewelers for repairs and deep cleaning.
Care for Diamonds and Lab-Grown Diamonds
- Both natural and lab-grown diamonds are durable but should still be cleaned gently to maintain their brilliance; avoid abrasive contact.
- Regular professional inspections will ensure settings remain secure for lasting sparkle.
Special Care for Gifting Articles
When gifting jewelry, especially in traditional or ceremonial contexts, please observe the following:
- Avoid contact with water, flowers, and kum kum (vermillion powder), as these can tarnish metals and damage delicate stones or intricate designs.
- When presenting the gift, ensure it is kept in its protective House of Tanwar packaging to preserve its pristine condition.
- Advise the recipient to follow the care guide strictly to maintain the beauty and spiritual significance of the piece.
By following these care guidelines, your House of Tanwar jewelry remains a timeless symbol of luxury, emotion, and legacy—cherished today and forever.
