Jewelry Care

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR JEWELRY

Cobamae pieces are made with love from natural materials such as silk thread, gold-filled findings, as well as stone, Swarovski crystal and glass beads (some brass for ethnic inspired jewelry). For bracelets, coated stainless steel cords may be used.

Your Cobamae jewelry has been carefully made by hand.
To maximize its lifespan, avoid exposure to showers, ocean and swimming pools. Remove before exercising to prevent accidental breakage, and limit creams and/or perfumes while wearing.Clean with water and a mild unscented soap, using a soft toothbrush if needed. Thoroughly dry with a cloth or tissue.

 

WHY I USE GOLD-FILLED MATERIAL

Cobamae jewelry uses either 14 karat gold or gold-filled wire and/or findings. Unlike gold-plated jewelry which only has a coating of gold applied to a base metal, gold-filled material has a thick layer of gold fused onto the base metal, which means that it does not tarnish as fast as gold-plated. It looks like real gold and stands up to wear and tear much better, which means your Cobamae piece will shine longer!
