Care Instructions for O’Gem Jewelry

O’Gem jewelry is crafted from natural materials and should be treated with care. To ensure your O’Gem pieces last a lifetime, please refer to our care and maintenance guide below.

Storage

• Protect your jewelry from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity.
• Ideally, store your O’Gem pieces in individual pouches.

Wear

• Avoid spraying perfumes or applying creams or other liquids directly on your jewelry, as this can cause stains and damage the gold foil and silicone pads on ear clips.
• Remove your jewelry before bathing, swimming, or engaging in intense exercise.
• Exception: You can wear your O’Gem ring in the water while swimming.
• Regularly wearing your pearls and opals will help them maintain their natural luster.

Care

General Cleaning

Gemstones, pearls, gold foil, and amber should be gently cleaned with:

• Warm water
• A mild soap
• A soft, damp cloth or brush

Avoid:

• Harsh chemicals
• Hot water
• Aggressive cleaners

Patina

• Gold-foiled and silver-foiled jewelry that comes into direct contact with skin may develop a patina over time, enhancing its unique look.
• Silver may oxidize and darken if not polished regularly.

Repair

• Elastics, cords, and clips may loosen after years of regular use. These can be tightened or replaced as needed.
• If you need to adjust the size of a ring or request a repair, please consult our “Returns and Repairs” information.
