Maintenance-Free ▶︎ Handwashing Edition

Everyone wants to be clean, don't they? Your accessories feel the same way. Wash them when you wash your hands. It won't take up any extra time in your daily life. I've been doing this for 20 years, so it's a proven method.

When you lather up with hand soap, make sure to thoroughly wash your bangles and rings while you're washing your palms and between your fingers.

Rinse off the suds thoroughly with water, dry with a clean towel, then remove your bangles and rings and place them in their designated spot.

Gold, platinum, and silver materials can be washed by hand and disinfected with alcohol.

① Pearls, opals, corals ▶︎ Wipe with a clean cloth! Do not wash with water.

② Diamonds ▶︎ The only stone that attracts soap scum. Soak in lukewarm water with a few drops of dish soap for 3 minutes, then scrub the details with a toothbrush. My wife does this once a month too. The sparkle will return as if it were new.

③ Over 90% of all accessories produced worldwide are plated ▶︎ Wipe with a clean cloth. If the plating is scratched, hand washing can cause corrosion.

④ "Chlorine bleach (sodium hypochlorite)" which is a cheap alternative to alcohol disinfectant (ethanol) is NOT allowed. It can cause blackening due to chlorine. Always use real ethanol (alcohol content approximately 70% or higher). If you are unsure, remove your accessories.
