Product Care

Lois Hill handmade jewelry has been created to the highest quality standards. Proper care and maintenance will preserve the beauty and shine of your Lois Hill jewelry.
Sterling Silver will tarnish over time and can be affected by external temperature, humidity, and light.

Avoid exposing jewelry to extreme sunlight and substances containing bleach or ammonia. Remove your jewelry before swimming in chlorinated water or the ocean. Avoid contact with perfumes, cosmetics, or other household chemicals by putting your jewelry on after you dress.
You can polish your Lois Hill Jewelry with a polishing cloth as needed.  
The more frequently you wear LH jewelry, the less you will need to polish it. 

 
 
STERLING SILVER   
Avoid jewelry cleaners. Our Sterling Silver is oxidized  to bring out the textures and intricacies of each piece. Oxidation will be removed and jewelry will scratch on contact with harsh abrasives in jewelry cleaners. 
You can polish your Lois Hill Jewelry with a polishing cloth as needed.
You can also dip your jewelry in a lukewarm diluted solution of mild, liquid (ammonia free) dishwashing detergent, rinse completely with clean lukewarm water and then blot dry using a cloth. Do not rub.

GEMSTONES
Avoid extreme temperature changes and contact with household chemicals. Never expose stones to hot solutions, abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners. Gemstones may be cleaned with a non-abrasive jewelry cleaner.
18K GOLD
Avoid jewelry cleaners. Our 18K Gold collection is assembled with Sterling Silver which is oxidized to bring out the textures and intricacies of each piece. Upon contact with harsh abrasives in jewelry cleaners, the oxidation will be removed and the jewelry will scratch.

 

STORAGE
When your jewelry is not being worn, always store it in its original case or an air tight bag to prevent advance tarnishing.
To avoid scratches, each piece of jewelry should be stored separately.
