CARING FOR YOUR JEWELLERY

Clean Regularly: Use a soft cloth to clean.
Store Properly: Store in a dry place.
Remove Before Activities: Take off while sleeping, showering, swimming in pools, or in the sea.
Dressing Order: Put jewellery on last and take off first when dressing.
Sterling Silver Care: Sterling silver can tarnish over time. Clean gently with a soft cloth.
Keep Dry: Remove jewellery before showering, swimming, or applying lotions and perfumes to avoid moisture damage.
Avoid Tangles: Store jewellery tangle-free and fastened, using a jewellery tree or dedicated storage.
Remove During Heavy Activity: Although many ZOLÁI pieces are designed for everyday wear, removing jewellery during exercise, swimming, and sleeping can help prolong its lifespan.
Following these tips will help your jewellery look its best and last longer.
