Product Care Tips
What is Artificial Jewellery?
Artificial jewellery is typically made from non-precious materials, such as base metals, glass, acrylic, and various synthetic stones. While it may not possess the intrinsic value of fine jewellery, artificial jewellery stands out for its versatility and the ability to mimic the appearance of expensive pieces.
What is American Diamond Jewellery?
Also known as Cubic Zirconia, these are the synthesized replicas of natural diamonds. These are imposters and owing to their synthetic origin, a certain level of clarity can be easily achieved. American Diamond Jewellery is an ideal choice for those who are looking for an affordable and ordinary replacement for diamonds.
Is American Diamond a Real Diamond?
No, not at all. These are the crystalline form of Zirconium Oxide; however, it is challenging to spot any difference between the real diamond and American diamond. This is 50% heavier than the natural diamonds, owing to its structure, and is available at a budget-friendly price.

This jewellery type is extremely durable, but it is not resistant to water. So, you must clean it with lukewarm water to remove dirt and impurities. But make sure that you don’t use boiling water because that can cause damage to the diamonds.

Get the jewellery rinsed with cool water and dry the same with a microfiber towel or any soft piece of cloth.
How to Clean Beaded Jewellery?

CARING FOR YOUR ARTIFICIAL JEWELLERY
Proper care can significantly extend the lifespan of your artificial jewellery. Here are some essential tips to consider:
- Store it Safely
Tip: To prevent tangling, store your jewellery individually in soft pouches, plastic bags or cardboard boxes. For earrings and rings, a dedicated jewellery box with compartments is ideal.
- Keep it Dry
Tip: Moisture can cause tarnishing and discoloration. Be sure to remove your jewellery before swimming, showering, or engaging in activities that expose it to water.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight
Tip: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can fade the colours of artificial jewellery. Store your pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Handle with Care
Tip: Be gentle when putting on or taking off your jewellery. Excessive force can lead to breakage, especially in delicate pieces.
- Use a Jewellery Cloth
Tip: A soft jewellery polishing cloth can help maintain the shine of your pieces. Gently wipe them after each use to remove oils, sweat, and other contaminants.
- Apply Perfume and Makeup First
Tip: To prevent chemical reactions that may tarnish jewellery, apply perfume, lotion, and makeup before putting on your artificial jewellery.
