YOUR VOY JEWELRY ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS

Whether you wear them every day or only occasionally, your pieces of Voy jewelry are precious objects that require care and attention.
The recommendations below will help you to preserve them in their original condition.

  • Allow yourself the necessary time to be able to handle your jewelry carefully.
  •  Ensure that you remove your jewelry when washing your hands and putting on perfume or face cream. The particles present in these cosmetics, which are not eliminated by rapid rinsing, may become lodged in cavities and form a corrosive blend of materials that in the long term may lead to premature deterioration of the metal. 
  • Regular contact with household detergents or insecticides may damage pearls and certain precious stones.
  • Products containing mercury, such as Mercurochrome, cause irreversible damage to gold. 
  • Take your regular activities into account when choosing your jewelry. Avoid wearing them on the beach, at the swimming pool or to play sport so as to avoid knocks and scratches. Wearing your jewelry should also be avoided when doing housework or gardening.
  • Avoid the friction caused by sliding your pendant on its chain or wearing several rings on the same finger.
  •   Ensure you do not place your jewelry too close to sources of intense heat, to X-rays or to other sources of radioactivity.

·        SOME PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES

Before putting on your piece of jewelry, examine it for a moment:

  • check that the clasp (and its safety catch if it has one) is not “loose”:
  • check that the settings of the stones have not moved, as follows: either by shaking the piece of jewelry close to your ear: if you hear a slight noise, this means that the stones are no longer perfectly secured, or by rubbing the piece of jewelry against a thin cloth: if the cloth catches, this means that the prongs have moved.
  •   If you are in the slightest doubt, it is advisable not to wear your piece of jewelry until you have had it checked at a Voy boutique


MAINTAINING YOUR JEWELRY IN GOOD CONDITION

Your jewelry should be cleaned regularly.

  •  If in general it contains a significant cluster of stones, the task of cleaning it should be entrusted to one of our specialists.
  •  If it does not include these types of stone, you may carry out the cleaning yourself. Scrub the jewelry delicately with a very soft small brush in lukewarm soapy water, carefully rinse it in lukewarm water and wipe it with a soft cloth.
  • Once every year, leave your pieces of jewelry at a Voy boutique so as to have them checked, cleaned and revitalized.

STORING YOUR JEWELRY

 Pieces of jewelry become scratched when they come into contact with one another. We recommend you to store them individually in the Voy case that you were given at the time of purchase.
