Care Guide
Tips on Caring for your Vinny & Charles Jewellery
Our pieces are all made with high quality materials and expert craftsmanship. They are made to last. To ensure the longevity of your piece, here are a few things you can do to care for and protect your jewellery, to maintain that quality and ensure your piece sparkles for generations to come.
Usage
We recommend removing your jewellery before showering, bathing and swimming. And, avoid getting the jewellery in contact with chlorine bleach, perfumes, lotions or harsh chemicals.
We recommend removing your jewellery before doing any rough or manual work, like gardening or cleaning, and avoid doing any activities that might scratch or damage the piece.

Maintenance
You can periodically clean your jewellery at home using warm water, mild dish soap (no detergents) and a soft brush.
Just be sure to rinse your jewellery in a glass as you could risk losing loose stones - or the entire piece - if you rinse directly in the sink. We also recommend that you service your gemstone and diamond jewellery with a jeweller every 6 to 10 months to avoid stones falling out.

All of our white gold pieces are rhodium plated as per industry standard practice. This gives the metal a "whiter" and more 'silvery' lustre as white gold is comparatively more yellow in appearance in its natural state. If you would prefer to have the white gold piece without rhodium plating, please get in touch with us. We recommend having your white gold jewellery re-plated once a year.
Cleaning & Storage
To clean your jewelry, please use the special jewellery polish cloth we provide when you purchase your piece. When your jewellery isn't being worn, each piece should be stored separately, away from sunlight and direct heat.
When you’re not wearing your jewellery, we recommend storing it in your Vinny & Charles jewellery box. And, before putting it away, wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth to remove any oils.
