CARE INSTRUCTIONS
STERLING SILVER :
.925 Sterling silver naturally oxidises, a process we at Sable Noir cherish. In fact, we accelerate this process to create unique hues in your jewellery pieces, choosing not to use any chemical coatings.
With wear and time, the finish of the pieces will organically evolve, revealing the natural radiance of silver.
Should you desire, we can re-oxidise your piece in-house. Please contact us at contact@sablenoir.com.au for more details.
BRONZE :
The solid bronze used in our designs is intentionally left raw.
Each time the piece emerges from its pouch, it naturally darkens/oxidises.
Everyone's skin is different and the natural oil present in our skin act as a polisher for most your jewellery. For some people, the more bronze is worn against the skin, the more its beauty enhances. For others, the piece tempt to oxidise quicker.
We embrace the way jewellery evolve on different skins and we choose not to use chemical barriers.
To clean your bronze, a simple wipe with a jewellery cloth suffices. We also recommend to polish your bronze now and again. Brasso is a metal polisher we suggest to use. Please follow the product’s usage and safety procedure.
If you wish for a professional cleaning or re-oxidising, feel free to get in touch with us.
PEARLS :
Whether Cultured Tahitian or Freshwater, authentic pearls are made of Nacre. Being porous, they require careful handling.
Always adorn yourself with your jewellery last. Pearls are sensitive to chemicals, including cosmetics and cleaning agents.
When not traveling, leave your pearls out of their pouch. To clean, gently wipe with a damp cloth and allow to dry on a soft surface. Do not use any cleaning agent onto your pearls, this would damage their natural barrier.
Overall
To preserve the designed patina and the integrity of natural pearls and stones, avoid wearing your jewellery in the shower, ocean, or swimming pool. Refrain from applying perfume, makeup, or creams directly onto the jewellery. It is also advisable to remove your jewellery before cleaning.
Always store your jewellery in the provided pouch during travel.
