Your piece, made to be loved.

A little goes a long way.

We recommend removing your jewellery when:

• — Showering or bathing
• — Swimming, especially in chlorine or salt water
• — Exercising
• — Sleeping
• — Applying perfume, lotions, creams or hairspray
• — Using household cleaning products

Try to put your jewellery on after your beauty routine rather than before.

A good rule of thumb: Last on, first off.

For most gold and platinum jewellery, gentle cleaning at home is simple.

1. Fill a small bowl with warm water and a few drops of mild dishwashing liquid.
2. Allow your jewellery to soak for a few minutes.
3. Gently clean with a very soft-bristled toothbrush, paying particular attention to underneath the stone and around the setting.
4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
5. Pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth and allow it to dry completely before storing.

Never scrub your jewellery aggressively. Your diamonds are incredibly durable, but the metal and setting can still be scratched or damaged.

Diamonds are one of the hardest natural materials on Earth, but that doesn't mean they're indestructible.

Avoid exposing your ring to hard knocks, impact or unnecessary pressure, particularly around the stone and setting.

It's also normal for diamonds to lose some of their sparkle over time - usually because of everyday oils, lotions and dirt rather than anything being wrong with the stone.

A gentle clean can make a huge difference. ✨

Natural & lab-grown diamonds

Both natural and lab-grown diamonds can be cared for in essentially the same way.

Moissanite can also be cleaned using the same gentle method.

Yellow & rose gold

Gold is a precious but relatively soft metal, so it can develop small scratches through normal wear.

This is completely normal - and part of the life of a well-loved piece.

White gold

White gold jewellery is typically finished with a layer of rhodium, which gives it its bright white appearance.

Over time, this can naturally wear down and may require professional re-rhodiuming to restore its finish.

Platinum

Platinum is incredibly durable and well suited to everyday wear. It will develop a natural patina over time, which many people love.

If you'd prefer your platinum piece to have its original polished finish restored, it can be professionally polished.

Give your jewellery a safe little home. 🤍

Store each piece separately where possible to prevent pieces rubbing against one another.

Keep your jewellery somewhere dry, cool, away from direct sunlight, moisture and humidity.

Your OLIVE jewellery box is perfect for keeping your piece protected when you're not wearing it.

Your engagement ring is likely to be one of the pieces you wear most often, so it's worth giving it a little extra attention.

We recommend periodically checking that:

• — The stone doesn’t feel loose
• — The setting hasn’t been damaged
• — There are no obvious cracks or bends
• — The claws/prongs still look secure

If something doesn't feel right - don't wait.

Take your ring off and contact us.

Please don't attempt to repair or tighten the setting yourself.

Even with regular at-home care, we'd recommend having your jewellery professionally inspected and cleaned periodically, particularly for engagement rings and pieces worn every day.

This gives us an opportunity to check the setting, claws/prongs and overall condition of your piece.

Think of it as a little check-up for your jewellery. 🤍

Some jewellery can be damaged or loosened by ultrasonic cleaning, particularly if there are delicate settings, fractures/inclusions in certain gemstones, or stones that aren't securely set.

When in doubt, ask us first.

Your jewellery is meant to be worn, loved and enjoyed.

Don't be afraid to wear your OLIVE piece.

A few little scratches and signs of wear don't mean you've damaged its beauty - they mean it's becoming part of your story.

And if you ever have a question about your piece, we're always here to help.
