Jewellery Care & Longevity
Your Bessie Bae jewellery is made to last — timeless designs handcrafted in 925 sterling silver and semi-precious stones that deserve a little everyday care. Follow these easy steps to keep your pieces shining beautifully for years to come.
1. Keep It Clean
After wearing, gently wipe your jewellery with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils, moisture and light dirt. For a deeper clean, use mild soap and warm water — never harsh chemicals or abrasives. Dry completely before storing.
2. Avoid Tarnish
Sterling silver naturally develops a soft patina over time. To slow this process, avoid contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray and cleaning products. Remove your jewellery before showering, swimming or exercising.
3. Store With Care
Keep each piece in its own anti-tarnish pouch or the free Bessie Bae packaging provided. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Separate chains and delicate pieces to prevent tangling or scratches.
4. Polish Gently
Restore brilliance with a specialist silver-polishing cloth. Rub gently in long, even strokes — never in circles. Avoid dipping solutions on gemstone or pearl jewellery.
5. Protect Gemstones & Pearls
Our semi-precious stones and pearls are natural and delicate. Avoid heat, chemicals, and ultrasonic cleaners. A soft, damp cloth is best for refreshing their surface.
6. Wear With Love
Jewellery gains beauty through wear but should be treated kindly. Put it on last when getting ready and take it off first at the end of the day. This simple ritual helps preserve its shine and craftsmanship.
7. Annual Refresh
Consider a professional clean or polish once a year to maintain your collection’s radiance. A jeweller can also inspect settings to ensure stones remain secure.
With a little care, your Bessie Bae jewellery will remain as meaningful and radiant as the day you received it — ready to cherish, gift, and wear for a lifetime.
