Elegant Classic White Pearl Necklace

At Duaiq, we want you to enjoy the beauty and energy of your crystals and jewelry for a long time. By following these care instructions, you can keep your items looking their best and maintain their energetic properties. Please read and follow these guidelines to ensure the longevity and vibrancy of your precious pieces.

Handling and Storage:

• Handle your crystals and jewelry with clean hands to prevent transferring oils or dirt.
• Avoid dropping or knocking your crystals or jewelry against hard surfaces, as this can cause damage.
• Store your crystals and jewelry separately to prevent scratching or tangling.
• For metal based jewelries, avoid exposure to moisture, water/salt water, lotions, perfumes or chemicals. This may tarnish the metal components. 
• Pyrite, Malachite and Lapis Lazuli should be kept away from excess moisture and salt water.

Cleaning Crystals:

• Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to gently wipe your crystals and remove any dirt or fingerprints.
• If your crystals require a deeper clean, you can rinse them with lukewarm water and mild soap. However, check if the specific crystal is water-safe before doing so. 
• For delicate or porous crystals, such as Selenite or Malachite, avoid immersing them in water. Instead, use a dry or slightly damp cloth to clean them.
• After cleaning, pat your crystals dry with a soft cloth.

Cleaning Jewelry:

• Use a jewelry polishing cloth to gently clean your jewelry and restore its shine.
• Avoid exposing your jewelry to chemicals, such as perfumes, lotions, or hairsprays, as they can tarnish or damage the metal components.
• Remove your jewelry before swimming, showering, or engaging in activities that may expose it to excessive moisture or impact.
• Store your jewelry in a dry, tarnish-resistant container or jewelry box when not in use
