If you miss your piece’s original luster, we are happy to polish them to either a “satin” or gloss finish. Just call us. Pricing starts at $25.00.The best way to care for your Marla Aaron pieces is by not wearing them while showering, swimming, working out or washing dishes. Maintaining the closure free of debris/chemicals (shampoo/conditioner/soap) is key. If you need a place to store your pieces while doing these activities, check out our Depository here.To keep your silver jewelry shining - store it in a cool, dry place to prevent tarnishing. To maintain your silver jewelry, gently polish your pieces with the polishing cloth included in your order. Do not dip your pieces in any silver cleaning solutions as this may change the intended appearance of our blackened pieces. For brass Cufflings, our preferred cleaner is ketchup – Heinz specifically. Simply wipe the ketchup on your piece and then wipe off with a “buffing” motion using a paper towel. Rinse with water and dry and you will see the shine. Well worn jewelry though does not need any polishing. So wear your jewels!Store pearls in a cloth pouch (if you bought them from us or had them repaired by us you have one of our muslin sacks). And try not to get lotion or perfume on your pearls – it will destroy their luster.
