Choosing the Right Jewellery

Care & Instruction

Cara Keepsakes jewellery is created using several different precious metals. The following information will help you choose the one that’s right for you.

These unique keepsakes are often worn more consistently than other jewelry pieces, so we recommend the following individualized care depending on your choice of precious metal to ensure the maximum lifespan of your keepsake.

 

 

Murano Glass

These glass pendants should be cleaned using a damp lint-free cloth. DO NOT wear in a shower, tub, pool, hot tub or sauna.

Keep away from direct exposure to makeup, perfumes and lotions. These sprays may cause discoloration.

 

Stainless Steel

Cara Keepsakes' Stainless Steel collection is crafted from a steel alloy that contains chromium. This jewellery will not tarnish or corrode and doesn’t require special care. Simply store your jewellery in its case when not being worn.

 

Gold

Gold is treasured for its natural beauty and radiance and nothing compares to the timeless elegance of this enduring metal. Just as gold is used to create engagement rings and wedding bands to withstand daily wear and tear, choosing gold for your keepsake jewelry will ensure an enduring and lasting remembrance.

Gold can withstand everyday wear; simply wipe with a damp lint-free cloth.

DO NOT wear a gold locket in a shower, tub, pool, hot tub or sauna. All lockets have a paper photo inside that can get wet!

 

Sterling Silver

Cara Keepsakes' .925 Sterling Silver collection is rhodium plated giving it a brilliant white shine, as well as providing a protective layer over the pendant. Even with this protective coating, sterling silver is known to lose its lustre over time. The following care instructions are pertinent to long-term wear of these unique sterling silver keepsakes.

Keep away from direct exposure to makeup, perfumes and lotions.

DO NOT wear in a shower, tub, pool, hot tub or sauna.

DO NOT use any silver cleaners or pre-treated cloths.

Avoid wearing your jewelry overnight.
