Your Harper Jewellery piece has been crafted using exceptional materials and designed to be worn and treasured for years to come. With thoughtful care, it will maintain its brilliance, structure, and beauty over time.

Storage

When not being worn, we recommend storing your jewellery individually in its original Harper Jewellery packaging or within a soft-lined jewellery box.

Each piece should be kept separate to prevent scratching or tangling, in a dry, low-humidity environment. Avoid storing jewellery in bathrooms or damp areas, as moisture can affect both metals and settings over time.

Considered storage preserves the integrity and finish of your piece.

Exposure to Chemicals & Elements

To maintain the beauty of your jewellery, we recommend avoiding contact with perfume, lotions, hairspray, household cleaning products, chlorine, salt water, and harsh detergents.

Exposure to these elements may dull metal finishes, impact gemstone brilliance, and gradually weaken settings.

Wearing Recommendations

While each piece is designed for regular wear, we recommend removing your jewellery before sleeping, bathing, swimming, exercising, or undertaking high-impact activities.

This helps minimise unnecessary strain on clasps, chains, and stone settings, preserving the longevity of your piece.

Cleaning

Regular, gentle cleaning will help maintain the natural lustre and brilliance of your jewellery.

Soak in warm water with a small amount of mild soap, lightly brush with a soft toothbrush if required, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

For continued care, we recommend a professional clean and inspection periodically.

Solid Gold & Platinum

Solid gold and platinum are among the most enduring and precious metals, designed for a lifetime of wear and refinement.

To preserve their natural finish, we recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to chemicals, perfume, lotions, chlorine, and salt water.

With continuous wear, particularly for bracelets, subtle signs of wear may develop over time due to daily contact with surfaces, water, and skin. This is a natural characteristic of fine jewellery and can be professionally polished if desired.

Platinum may also develop a soft patina over time, enhancing its character while retaining its strength.

Vermeil (Gold Over Sterling Silver)

Our vermeil pieces are crafted with a thick layer of gold over solid sterling silver, offering the appearance of fine jewellery with a more delicate finish.

To preserve the gold layer, we recommend avoiding contact with water, perfume, lotions, and chemicals, and removing your piece before sleeping, bathing, swimming, or exercising.

With regular wear, particularly for bracelets, a natural softening of the gold finish may occur over time due to contact with skin and surfaces. This is expected with vermeil and forms part of the piece’s evolving character.
