How to Care for Your Memorial Jewellery
Your ashes jewellery is a meaningful piece, designed to be worn and treasured for years. Sterling silver may naturally tarnish over time with wear, and white gold can develop a soft, warm glow. To keep your cremation ashes jewellery looking its best, gently polish it regularly using a soft, dry cloth (such as the one provided with your order).
When not wearing your jewellery, we recommend storing it safely in the box it arrived in. Keep your memorial jewellery in a cool, dry place, and store each piece separately to avoid scratching or damage.
