Product care

Sofie Ladefoged Jewellery is a lasting investment that quickly will become a part of you and your appearance. The pieces are made in 18k gold, which is a comparatively soft, precious metal. Therefore it should be treated with care and protected from rough treatment, hard knocks and abrasive surfaces, and it is best to be removed during sport or manual work. Make sure you are completely dry before putting on your jewellery, to avoid irritating your skin. To preserve its beauty over time, avoid contact with products such as soap, lotions, perfume, chlorine, and hair spray, as these can gradually dull the surface.

To prevent snagging, put jewellery on after dressing and take it off before undressing. Be mindful around moving parts such as bicycles, machinery, taps, and handles. If your jewellery does get snagged, never tug it, or use brute force because it could snap. If your jewellery includes a chain and it gets knotted, gently release the knot as soon as possible.

Cleaning

Properly cared for, your jewellery will need cleaning very infrequently. If it does need refreshing, add a very small amount of washing up liquid to a bowl of lukewarm water and allow it to soak. If soiling is heavy, use a soft bristled toothbrush to gently dislodge the dirt. Finally, wipe with a soft, clean, cotton cloth. This advice applies to both gold and diamond jewellery, but we recommend a regular clean of your diamonds. 

Storing

The best container for your Sofie Ladefoged Jewellery is the specially designed box that it comes in. The best advice is to store it in a safe place where it won’t come into contact with other jewellery or things that could in any way damage it. Avoid pockets and tins. Choose softer and gentle environments.
