Toni May Care Guide
Jewellery Care
ToniMay
Your ToniMay jewellery has been lovingly handmade and, with the right care, can be enjoyed for years to come. Some materials and finishes require more care than others, so please follow the guidance below.
Storage
Store your jewellery in a clean, dry and secure place, away from direct light, moisture and dust. Avoid keeping jewellery loose in your handbag or wallet, where it may become scratched or damaged.
After wearing your jewellery, gently wipe each piece with a soft, dry cloth before storing it. This helps remove body oils, cosmetics and other residue that may contribute to tarnishing or plating wear.
Cleaning
Use a good-quality jewellery polishing cloth to keep sterling silver and brass pieces clean and bright. These metals naturally tarnish as they react to heat, body oils, moisture and chemicals, but gentle, regular polishing can help restore their shine.
Always handle chains carefully when cleaning. Avoid pulling, stretching or tugging them, as this may weaken or damage the links.
Wearing Your Jewellery
Remove your ToniMay jewellery before:
- Showering, bathing or swimming
- Washing your hands
- Exercising or sleeping
- Doing household chores
- Carrying heavy items
Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, sunscreen, moisturiser, soap, cleaning products, salt water and chlorinated water. These can damage or discolour metals, plating and stones.
