JEWELLERY CARE
Havana Brown jewellery is made exclusively from fine metals. Each piece has been designed in keeping with our enduring aesthetic with an intention to last. Each piece is handmade with unique textures and finishes and should be handled with care.
​
With proper care, your jewellery can be enjoyed for a lifetime or more, becoming a beloved heirloom.
​
To avoid tarnishing metals or harming any precious stones, remove your jewellery when using detergents or chemicals, while applying makeup, perfume and hairspray, when exercising, showering, gardening and before bed. We recommend storing your jewellery in a clean and dry location.
When travelling, keep your items separate by wrapping them in tissue or cloth, and store in separate compartments of a jewellery box. This includes separating each earring in a pair.
​
To clean your pieces, gently wash with a very soft toothbrush and warm, mildly soapy water, rinse then pat dry with a soft cloth. To clean fine chain, create a paste with water and baking soda and gently rub it onto the chain. Soak in a small dish with warm water for a few minutes and then rinse. Always pat dry with a soft paper towel. Avoid running fine chain through a polishing cloth as this can pull and stretch delicate links. All snake chain is delicate and requires professional cleaning, please contact us to arrange to have your piece cleaned properly.
​
Always be particularly cautious when handling delicate chain, pieces with pearls or stones. Our 9ct white gold pieces are made using rhodium plated solid gold. Please note all platings will wear off over time. Contact us directly if you wish to have any white gold re-plated.
Avoid over touching diamonds and precious stones directly, oil and dirt from your fingers can cloud the stones.
Store diamond pieces separately in cases provided.
​
We recommend having your custom jewellery checked by us annually. We will check the stones and settings, and clean your piece professionally. Once a piece is damaged it can be difficult to repair and may result in a re-build.
