At a glance
Four simple habits protect your jewellery.
These everyday habits help preserve colour, texture, stone settings and delicate natural materials.
Apply products first
Put on perfume, lotion and hair products before your jewellery.
Wipe gently
Use a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, soaking and ultrasonic cleaners.

Keep each piece in its own pouch or box to prevent scratching.
Handling and wearing
Protect the materials before the day begins.
Handle your jewellery with gentle care. Pearls, delicate beads, antique elements and natural materials are especially sensitive to acids, moisture and heat.
- Handle your jewellery with gentle care.
- Avoid wearing your jewellery while swimming, bathing or exercising.
- Apply perfumes, lotions or hair products before putting on your jewellery to prevent residue.
- Pearls and delicate beads are sensitive to acids, moisture and heat. Avoid direct contact with cosmetics, chemicals and perspiration.
First rule
Jewellery should be the final thing you put on and the first thing you take off.
Cleaning your jewellery
Clean gently at home, inspect professionally every six months.
You can clean your pieces at home occasionally, but we recommend having your jewellery professionally cleaned and inspected every six months. Professional cleaning not only restores shine but also allows the jeweller to check gemstone settings, ensuring they remain secure and preventing potential loss.
Settings can be delicate and may shift if knocked or caught on something.
SuhaniMara service
We offer free polishing and inspection of any SuhaniMara jewellery at any time. Repairs, if needed, may incur an additional cost depending on the type of servicing required.
Material guide
Different materials need different care.
SuhaniMara pieces may combine metals, gemstones, fossils, shells, wood, beads, pearls and antique elements. Use the gentlest possible method first.
Silver
Sterling silver naturally darkens over time because pure silver is alloyed with other metals, commonly copper, for durability. When needed, wipe gently with a soft cloth and avoid harsh chemicals that may damage antique finishes or design details.
Gemstones and uncut stones
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using ultrasonic cleaners.
Fossils and meteorites
Wipe carefully with a dry or slightly damp cloth to preserve texture and natural patina.
Shells, wood and beads
Protect from prolonged moisture and wipe dry after wear.
Pearls and antique beads
Never soak in water or cleaning solutions. Wipe gently with a soft cloth after each wear.
Antique elements
Avoid abrasive materials, strong cleaners and long exposure to water so the original finish and character remain intact.
Storing your jewellery
Let each piece rest separately.
Storage is part of jewellery care. Keeping pieces separated, dry and away from extreme conditions helps preserve their surface, colour, shape and texture.
- Store each piece separately in its pouch or box to prevent scratches.
- Avoid storing pearls and delicate beads in dark, humid spaces; natural materials need air circulation.
- Keep jewellery away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve colour and texture.
- For long-term storage, wrap delicate pieces in acid-free tissue paper.
