CARE
AFTERCARE
Golia jewelry is meticulously handcrafted in Italy using responsibly sourced, recycled precious metals. As delicate elements, these metals naturally react to their environment. To keep your pieces looking their best, handle them with care and store them in a cool, dry place.
925 STERLING SILVER
925 sterling silver natural develops a patina over time due to exposure to oxygen, sulfur, chemicals, and substances from the skin. To maintain its shine, use a silver polishing cloth or a silver dip bath. For more intense oxidation, our silver jewelry can be replated with a new layer of fine silver to bring back its original tone.
Store your jewelry in a dust bag or box to prevent unwanted tarnish. If tarnishing happens, clean your jewelry gently with the provided polishing cloth.
14K GOLD VERMEIL
14k gold vermeil consists of pure gold electroplated over a base of 925 sterling silver. Vermeil is a natural material that can react to the pH of the skin. Over time, the top layer of gold will naturally wear off but can be replated to restore its original luster. Clean your gold vermeil gently with a soft cloth, avoiding chemicals and contact with liquids.
