JEWELRY CARE GUIDE

Love your pieces well and they will love you right back.

Our Stainless Steel Quality

Our stainless steel jewelry is crafted using premium 304 and 316L grades, known for their exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. These high-grade materials are hypoallergenic, tarnish-resistant, and built to withstand everyday wear — ensuring your pieces stay beautiful for years to come.

 

How to Care for Stainless Steel Jewelry

1️⃣ Keep it clean: Wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth after wearing to remove sweat, oils, and dirt.
2️⃣ Avoid harsh chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from bleach, chlorine, and strong detergents, as these may damage the finish.
3️⃣ Store it properly: Store pieces separately in a dry, cool place — ideally in a soft pouch or jewelry box to prevent scratches.
4️⃣ Remove before activities: Take off your jewelry before swimming, bathing, or heavy exercise to keep it in top condition.
5️⃣ Polish if needed: Occasionally polish with a jewelry cloth to restore shine.

 

When properly cared for, our stainless steel pieces can last a lifetime.

Premium Materials & Advanced Plating

Our jewelry features a durable stainless steel core (304/316L) and a genuine 18K gold outer layer, applied using advanced in-furnace vacuum plating technology. This process creates a stronger, more even coating that resists fading and tarnishing far better than standard water plating.

 

About Our 18K Real Gold Plating

We use real 18K gold to ensure a rich color and luxurious shine. With proper care, your jewelry will maintain its brilliance for years to come.

 

How to Care for 18K Gold-Plated Stainless Steel Jewelry

1️⃣ Keep it dry: Avoid prolonged contact with water, especially salty sea water. Light contact with fresh water, like swimming in a pool, is generally fine, but rinse and dry afterward.
2️⃣ Store carefully: Keep pieces in a dry, soft pouch or jewelry box to prevent scratches and oxidation.
3️⃣ Clean gently: Wipe with a soft cloth after wearing to remove sweat and oils.
4️⃣ Avoid harsh chemicals: Keep away from perfumes, lotions, and cleaning agents.
5️⃣ Remove before showering or heavy exercise: This extends the life of the gold plating.

 

When properly cared for, our 18K gold-plated stainless steel pieces will keep their shine for years.

What to Know

 

Even the finest materials can react to their environment, but with a little care, it’s nothing that can’t be fixed.

How to Store

 

Be mindful of how you store and wear your jewelry, and your pieces will continue to look as good as new. When not being worn, store your jewelry in a safe, dry place to protect it from the elements of daily exposure.

At J&D JEWELRY, fine jewelry is more than craftsmanship and style—it’s a commitment to social and environmental responsibility. From responsibly sourced materials to trusted supplier partnerships, every step of our supply chain brings us closer to net zero emissions. Rigorous testing and precise composition mean our pieces surpass the highest industry standards and are made to last. This is jewelry you can feel good about.

How to clean gold jewelry

  • While gold is made to last a lifetime, it does require gentle care and occasional polishing.

  • To maintain the shine of your jewelry, gently clean it with a soft-bristled brush or cloth using warm water and detergent-free soap, or use our Jewelry Care Kit.

  • Don’t use abrasive cleaners.

  • Ultrasonic cleaners are safe to use on 18k gold jewelry.

  • If your gold discolors use the polishing cloth to revive it.

Why is my gold jewelry causing discoloration on my skin?

If your skin has some discoloration, don’t worry— it’s normal for a piece of gold jewelry to cause discoloration and doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with the product.

We use 18k gold to give our products strength and durability. Because 18k pieces have chemical compounds in them harder than gold, wearing them when applying cosmetic products rubs off very tiny particles of metal. These particles appear black in color, and can create a smudge when they come in contact with your skin. If it happens, it’s safe and can be cleaned with soap and water.
