Carat Care


Know how to protect your gems and valuables. Here are a few pointers that will lead you in the right direction.
• Store in separate zip lock bags and then in jewellery pouches to prevent them from bruising each other

• Arrange in velvet trays deep enough, so that there is no pressure on the gems

• Spray your fragrances before wearing jewellery. Spirits harm the natural lustre of the stones.

• Always open your jewellery on a padded surface like a carpet or on the bed, to avoid accidental cracks and breakage

• Polish with a felt cloth yourself if gems seem lacking in shine over a period of time. Hot water or an ultrasonic cleaner can damage gemstones.
