Some suggestions on caring for your Ruby Jam jewels: 1. When you’re not wearing your Ruby Jam jewels, it’s best to store them by wrapping them individually in a soft cloth. Your Ruby Jam Silk Bag is ideal. 2. Avoid contact with chemicals. Perfumes, body lotions, soaps and detergents can affect the natural beauty of your pieces. For example, if perfume is sprayed onto pearls it may cause pitting to the surface and affect the pearl’s lustre. 3. Natural gemstones differ in hardness (known as Moh’s Scale) and may be scratched. Avoid wearing your jewellery if you are doing heavy work like gardening, cleaning or playing sport.
