Jewellery Care
At Prakhya, each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted using ethically sourced materials and designed to last. With a little care, your jewellery will continue to shine beautifully for months and beyond.
General Care
- Store your jewellery in the provided Prakhya box in a cool, dry place, away from humidity, heat and sunlight.
- Remove before bathing, swimming, or exercising or doing household chores—chemicals, salt water, and chlorine can damage materials.
- Always avoid contact with hard surfaces to prevent scratches.
- Avoid contact with water, sweat, perfumes, lotions, deodorants, hair spray, gels, or other cosmetics and chemicals. Always wear your jewellery last, after applying makeup or personal care products.
- Clean gently with a soft cotton cloth after wear to remove moisture, oil, and dirt - avoid abrasive or chemical cleaners.
Sterling Silver
Sterling Silver (92.5% silver, 7.5% copper) is strong yet naturally prone to tarnish when exposed to air. Our pieces include a thin anti-tarnish e-coating, which may wear off with exposure to water, humidity, or chemicals.
Care Tips:
- Avoid chlorine, heat, and harsh chemicals, especially in pools or cleaning products.
- Use an anti-tarnish silver polishing cloth to gently clean and restore shine.
Gold Plated
Our Sterling Silver pieces feature a 0.5 micron of 22KT gold plating, offering a rich and durable finish. While plating naturally fades with wear over time, proper care can help retain its lustre for months and beyond.
Care Tips:
- Remove before washing, sweating, or applying lotions and sprays.
- Use a soft, dry cloth to clean. Avoid polishing agents or abrasives.
Gemstones
Our gemstones are responsibly sourced and hand-cut by skilled artisans in Jaipur, India. Each is one-of-a-kind, with natural variations in colour and inclusions.
General Gemstone Care:
- Keep away from sunlight—UV exposure can cause fading.
- Store in a dry place, away from bathrooms.
- Remove before any water-based activity or impact-prone activity (gym, sports, etc.).
- Protect from impact or knocks; store individually to avoid scratches or damage.
