How to: Clean your OFINA jewelry


We here at OFINA pride ourselves in providing jewelry made from high quality metals and stones. As in any investment, your jewelry requires care. We have a quick list of do's and don'ts on our website, listed below:

DO clean your jewelry occasionally using a cleaner. For stones, a soft polishing cloth is preferred as cleaners may be too harsh and cause some color damage.


For cleaners, we like Connoisseurs Jewelry Cleaner:

DO clean your goldfilled jewelry regularly using a little bit of warm water and a soft cloth to dry and shine after.

DO keep your jewelry in an airtight plastic baggie when not in use. Your OFINA jewelry comes with one.

DO keep sterling silver pieces out of damp, humid air.

DON'T leave jewelry in direct sunlight as gems will fade.

Lastly, OFINA provides the finishing touch to every outfit. DO make sure your OFINA jewelry is the last item you put on, on your way out. Hairspray, perfume, lotions and other hair and body products may aid in damaging your jewelry.
