Care instructions for your Forelsket jewellery
We recommend handling your Forelsket jewellery with care. Proper and regular care can help extend the life of your jewellery and keep your favourite pieces looking beautiful for longer.
Our Curated Jewellery Collection includes a variety of materials, including stainless steel, sterling silver and fashion jewellery. Because each material has different properties, care requirements may vary from piece to piece. We recommend checking the specific care information provided with your jewellery.
General Jewellery Care
To enjoy your Forelsket jewellery for as long as possible, we recommend following these basic guidelines:
- Keep your jewellery away from harsh chemicals. Avoid strong detergents and cleaning products. For everyday cleaning, warm water and a soft, lint-free cloth are usually sufficient to gently remove dirt, sweat and dust.
- Apply cosmetics before putting on your jewellery. Hair spray, perfume, sun cream, lotions and other cosmetics can affect certain jewellery finishes and materials.
- Remove jewellery before sleeping. This helps reduce friction, pulling and unnecessary wear.
- Avoid wearing jewellery during activities that may cause damage. We recommend removing your jewellery before showering, bathing, swimming in salt or chlorinated water, sunbathing, exercising, doing household or garden work, or using a sauna.
- Keep jewellery away from moisture when storing it. In particular, moisture can cause sterling silver to oxidise and tarnish over time.
- Store each piece separately. Keep your jewellery in its original packaging, an individual jewellery pouch, or wrapped in a soft cloth. This helps prevent scratches, tangling and abrasion between pieces.
Stainless Steel Jewellery
Our stainless steel jewellery is durable and designed for everyday wear. However, proper care will help maintain its appearance.
Avoid prolonged exposure to perfumes, lotions, chemicals, chlorine, salt water and other harsh substances. Gently clean with a soft, lint-free cloth when needed and store somewhere dry.
Sterling Silver Jewellery
Sterling silver naturally oxidises and can tarnish over time, particularly when exposed to moisture, air, perfumes, lotions and other chemicals.
This is a natural characteristic of sterling silver and does not necessarily mean that the jewellery is damaged. Keep sterling silver pieces dry, store them individually and use a suitable soft silver-polishing cloth when needed.
Fashion Jewellery
Some pieces in our Curated Jewellery Collection are fashion jewellery and may contain materials or finishes that require additional care.
These pieces may be more sensitive to moisture, perfumes, lotions, chemicals and everyday wear. For this reason, we recommend keeping fashion jewellery dry and removing it before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
Please refer to the individual product description where specific care instructions are provided.
Angel Caller Cage Jewellery
Our Angel Caller cage jewellery is a fashion/costume-style piece and may naturally tarnish or change in appearance over time.
Angel Callers are paired with a stainless steel necklace, but the cage itself may require more delicate care. To help keep your Angel Caller in good condition, avoid water, perfumes, lotions, chemicals and prolonged exposure to moisture.
Store your Angel Caller in a dry place when not being worn.
What to do if your pendant cage opens
If the pendant cage happens to open by itself, the clasp latch may be gently tightened using sharp-nose pliers.
Carefully use the pliers to gently clamp the clasp latch tighter.
Please take care when doing this to avoid scratching or damaging the cage.
A Little Extra Care Goes a Long Way
Every Forelsket piece is chosen or prepared with the intention of creating something meaningful to treasure. With a little extra care, you can help keep your jewellery looking beautiful for longer.
