CARE INSTRUCTIONS

LIA HADDI Jewelry is made with the Finest quality of 316L Stainless Steel, 925 Sterling Silver, 14K, and 18K Gold Filled. It is a durable, hypoallergenic, water and tarnish-resistant metal that will last you a long time if you take good care of it. LIA HADDI Jewelry is nickel-free, lead-free, and cadmium free. In some cases, the PH level of the skin can affect the jewelry and can cause discoloration. We all have a different PH level and because of that, the durability may differ from person to person. Following are general instructions on how to take care of your jewelry to maintain its original quality:

1. Always protect your jewelry from household chemicals, harsh soaps, sunlight, and excessive heat and cold.
2. Remove your jewelry when washing your hands and bathing. Apply perfume or hairspray before putting on your jewelry.
3. Be gentle with your jewelry when putting it on and taking it off and avoid excessive pulling, twisting, or tugging.
4. Store your jewelry in a soft container such as a pouch or lined box with an anti-tarnish strip. Try to keep pieces wrapped separately so they don’t scratch each other.
5. Your jewelry will age and tarnish naturally. In order to maintain your jewelry’s original condition, clean your jewelry regularly using a professional jewelry cleaning product.
6. Never go swimming with your jewelry, as chlorine in swimming pools can cause damage to all metals, including erosion and discoloration.
7. Many common chemical products such as cleaning products, face washes, perfumes, hairsprays, nail polishes, hand sanitizers, hand lotions, gardening chemicals, and even excessive perspiration can damage jewelry. Avoid activities that use these products when wearing jewelry.
8. Do not use chemically treated polishing cloths on our jewelry, except for items that are sterling silver without plating
9. We do not recommend using these products on our jewelry as they may be too harsh.

STERLING SILVER

Our sterling silver jewelry is made with 925 silver. To keep the jewelry looking bright and polished, keep all jewelry away from harsh chemicals like household cleaning fluids as they create abrasions and reduce the luster of the metal. Cleaning silver jewelry is best done with a professional jewelry cleaning product. Thoroughly dry your silver jewelry after exposure to water. Also, adhere to all General Care instructions.

GOLD PLATED

Our gold-plated jewelry has a 3 layer of 14K or 18K pure gold on top of sterling silver or 316L Stainless Steel, plating can wear off over time. Since we only use precious metals, the silver or stainless steel metal can show through, but will never turn green or tarnish like brass. Please use gentle cleaning products as other substances may be too strong and remove the gold. We suggest that you do not wear gold-plated jewelry in the shower and make a habit to remove it every day. To clean, use a mild dishwashing liquid diluted in water. Using a polishing cloth or strong jewelry cleaner is not recommended as it may remove the plating. Also, adhere to all General Care instructions.

Keep gold jewelry away from harsh chemicals like household cleaning fluids as they create abrasions and reduce the luster of the metal.
