HOW TO CARE FOR  AMBER:

While amber is durable enough to withstand millenia, it is also fragile. Even so, caring for amber jewelry couldn't be easier.

Your new amber is alive. The stones are still breathing & interacting with the environment. The colour may change over time this is expected & contributes to the unique, intensely individual nature of amber. Each piece of amber ages differently. Each is composed of different combinations of plant materials & fossil inclusions. Science has yet to replicate the chemical signature of amber in the laboratory, so amber retains not only beauty, but also a bit of mystery.

Because amber is brittle, the owner should avoid allowing it to come into sharp contact with hard surfaces. For example, the owner should take an extra moment to set it down on a dressing table rather than casually tossing it.

Store amber away from direct sunlight.

If luster is ever a concern, simply apply a tiny drop of olive oil & rub with soft flannel. "Less is more" with the olive oil.

If the amber itself becomes dirty you can clean it in a mild soap and water

If your piece is surrounded with silver you can polish the silver with a silver polishing cloth. Make sure no harsh chemical cleaners come into contact with your amber.

If you follow these easy guidelines, your amber jewelry will reward you with a lifetime of service & wonder.

It will stay just as beautiful as it is the day you purchased it.
