How to care for your gold-plated jewelry (and what you should never do)

Comment entretenir ses bijoux dorés (et ce qu’il ne faut jamais faire)

Waekura gold-plated jewelry is made to follow you through everyday life.
Water-resistant, adventure-ready, and perfect for busy days — yet still delicate.
To keep their shine for as long as possible, here are our simple (and tested) care tips.


💦 Yes: wear your jewelry daily (or almost)
Our jewelry is water-resistant, so you can wear it in the shower, at the beach, or during your activities.
The gold finish and high-quality materials we select ensure strong durability.
Our rings are plated with 3 microns — more surface protection to withstand friction.
With our plating, no more jewelry left sitting in a box — you can finally wear it freely.


🚫 No: perfumes, creams, and harsh products directly on them
Cosmetics can dull your jewelry over time — and alcohol even more so!
Never apply hand sanitizer or alcohol-based products while wearing your jewelry.

💡 Tip: Apply your perfume or creams first, let them absorb fully, then put on your jewelry.


💤 Yes: take them off at night (if you can)
It’s not mandatory, but it helps prevent friction and bending during sleep — especially for delicate chains or pearl-adorned pieces.


🛍 No: storing them loose
Avoid tossing your jewelry loosely into a drawer or box — it can cause scratches, tangles, or early wear.

👉 That’s why we created our Waekura jewelry boxes, designed to protect your pieces and follow you wherever you go.


Our care tips

  • Use a soft cloth (like microfiber) to restore shine

  • No need for harsh or chemical cleaners

  • Avoid long swims in saltwater or chlorinated pools

  • For deep cleaning, our Waekura Care Kit is the perfect tool to maintain your pieces easily


💬 In short
Caring for your gold-plated jewelry is easy:
✨ Avoid harsh products, store them properly, and wear them as often as you like.
Your favorite pieces will thank you.
