Does gold tarnish?

Gold does tarnish and scratch over time. To preserve the lustre of your gold jewellery, avoid exposure to household bleach and other cleaning products, which will quickly cause gold to discolour and possibly disintegrate. We recommend that you store your gold jewellery in a safe place when engaging in these activities:

  • Performing household and outdoor chores (i.e., cleaning and gardening)
  • Showering, bathing or swimming in pools, hot tubs, hot springs and the ocean
  • Using lotion, hair products, fragrances and other cosmetics
  • Exercising at the gym or during contact sports
  • Preparing meals

When not being worn, we recommend that you place your gold jewellery in its Tiffany Blue™ flannel pouch for safekeeping.

How to remove scratches from gold and platinum

Only polishing will remove scratches from gold and platinum. However, the patina of fine scratches that develops over time can add beauty to the jewellery and can reflect the journey a piece has taken. The polishing process removes metal and is only recommended to be carried out a few times over the life of the piece. 

 

We recommend that gold and platinum only be polished by a professional. Any Tiffany store can fulfill polishing requests.

How should I store and organise my jewellery?

It is important to properly store jewellery when traveling, moving or at home in between uses. Keep jewellery in a storage box away from the elements whenever possible and separated to prevent pieces from becoming tangled or disarranged.

 

Storing Jewellery at Home

If your jewellery is used frequently, avoid excessive exposure to air and store it in a tarnish-proof cloth, such as the flannel pouch provided with your Tiffany & Co. piece or a storage box. Good storage boxes are lined with tarnish-proof fabric and have a separate space for each individual piece.

 

Packing Jewellery When Traveling

It is important to keep jewellery organised and protected while traveling. When traveling with several pieces, we recommend storing items in a box or bag with separate compartments. This will protect jewellery from becoming tangled or disarranged. Make sure items are away from clothing to prevent snags. Wear or carry any valuable pieces with you in case your luggage is lost. View the Tiffany x GLOBE-TROTTER 9" jewellery case for a secure and protective storage option.

 

Packing Jewellery for a Move

When moving, keep all items in their permanent storage location. If you are using a jewellery box, wrap and package individual pieces and place back in the box. Once all pieces have been protected and stored, secure your jewellery box with moving materials, like you would with any other piece of furniture. View the Tiffany leather jewellery case for a protective storage option.

How often should I get my jewellery cleaned?

We recommend customers bring jewellery in at least once a year. Items worn regularly should be cleaned and checked every few months. This is especially true for engagement rings but applies to all regularly worn pieces.
