Your premium jewelry creation is delicate and thus requires special care and attention.
To prevent damage to your piece, we recommend avoiding exposure to fragrance, soap, chemicals or cosmetics, as these could affect its color and form. It is best to wait until fragrances and cosmetics have dried completely before wearing your jewelry.
It is important not to expose your creation to water (fresh, chlorinated or salt) or to high temperatures (such as prolonged sun exposure).
We generally recommend that you do not wear your jewelry when performing certain activities (sports, gardening, etc.) to prevent it from being knocked or from coming into contact with harmful substances.
As gold is stainless and unalterable to air and water, the precious metal requires only few care. To clean a gold creation, you may use a small amount of liquid soap and gently rub it with a soft brush, before rinsing the jewel with lukewarm water and drying it with a soft, dry cloth.
Each Van Cleef & Arpels creation should be stored in a fabric-lined case for jewelry, separate from other pieces to prevent it from being knocked or scratched. Some of the materials used by the Maison are more delicate than others and are particularly susceptible to breaking on impact.
Diamonds are the most sparkling and hardest of all minerals, which means that they can scratch other softer materials. Therefore, we advise you to store any creations set with diamonds separately.
