Amber jewelry care guide

Simple habits that help your favorite piece keep its warmth and luster.

Keep it gentle

Amber is durable, but it can be brittle. Avoid sharp contact with hard surfaces, especially with carved pieces, cameos and intaglio designs.

Protect the surface

Keep amber away from solvents, chlorinated water, hairspray and perfume. Apply fragrance and hair products before putting on jewelry.

Store it thoughtfully

Wrap amber and keep it away from direct sunlight when not wearing it. Hang bead necklaces to protect their drape and prevent tangling.

Bring back the glow

If luster needs a lift, apply a tiny drop of olive oil with soft flannel. Use a silver polishing cloth to brighten sterling silver if it tarnishes.
