Your Tanaira pieces are made to be worn and loved — a little care goes a long way in keeping the shine intact. Here are simple habits to build into your routine.
1. Keep it dry
Moisture is the biggest enemy of plated jewellery. Always put your bangles, bracelets, and kadas on after your shower, perfume, and makeup routine — not before. Sweat, water, and lotion speed up tarnishing on gold and silver plating.
2. Store it separately
Cubic zirconia, AD stones, and rhodium-plated pieces can scratch each other if tossed together in a drawer. Store each piece in a soft pouch or a lined jewellery box compartment. This is especially important for stone-studded bangles, where loose stones can scratch delicate settings.
3. Wipe after every wear
A soft, dry cotton cloth is all you need. Gently wipe off any residue from skin oils, perfume, or dust before putting the piece away. Avoid tissues or rough fabric, which can leave micro-scratches on polished surfaces.
4. Avoid chemicals
Skip contact with perfume, hairspray, sanitiser, and cleaning products. These chemicals react with plating and stone settings, causing dullness over time. If you're stepping out, spritz perfume first and let it dry before putting on your jewellery.
5. Take it off for water and workouts
Swimming, dishwashing, and sweaty workouts are common culprits behind premature tarnishing. Make it a habit to remove bangles and bracelets before these activities.
6. Rotate your pieces
Wearing the same piece daily wears down plating faster. If you love a design, consider rotating between a few favourites so no single piece takes all the wear.
With just these small habits, your handcrafted Tanaira pieces can stay radiant for years.
