Jewellery Care

Here at Sarah Harrington Jewellery we source quality metals and use high quality plating. With that said, fashion jewellery (including plated, 925 Sterling Silver and expensive jewellery brands) can experience normal wear and tear like this over time. To extend the life of your jewellery, please give them occasional breaks and to keep them away from any moisture and creams.

Please follow these tips to maintain the quality and prevent early tarnish:

  • Avoid sweat
  • Wipe with soft cloth
  • Do not sleep in your jewellery
  • Avoid chemicals (especially hand cream)
  • Avoid bathing, showering or washing your hands with jewellery on
  • Wait for hand/face cream to dry before putting on any jewellery 
  • Apply a layer of polymer coating/clear nail varnish on the inside of your rings

Jewellery care for delicate item - Linea (2mm) bracelet

This item is delicate if mistreated as with all small tennis bracelets. Please only pull it straight. Please do not twist it and do not use a twist motion when you opening or closing the clasp or the links may snap. If you twist it, this will be the reason why it snaps.

How to avoid the Green Finger

IMPORTANT: Traces of copper will be found in Gold/Rose Gold plating as this contributes to the colouring of the metal. In some extreme cases of sensitive, highly acidic skin, you may experience some oxidisation (slight greening). The other main cause of oxidisation is chemicals found in hand creams. If you are allergic or sensitive to metals or have had green tainting before then you are likely to experience the same reaction. 

We take no responsibility or liability for any reactions that may take place; It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure all precautions are taken as we are unable to know each individual's allergies and sensitivities. 

Alternatively, you contact our support team and we’ll be happy to help.
