What is the best way to care for Anna Zuckerman jewelry?

To protect the beauty and durability of your AZ jewelry, we recommend always treating your jewelry with care per the following:

  • When not wearing your AZ jewelry, it’s best to store it in a soft pouch.
  • Do not store more than one piece in a pouch to avoid tangling, rubbing, and knocking against each other.
  • Generally, jewelry should be cleaned with nothing more than very mild soapy
  • water and a soft toothbrush.
  • Do not use commercial jewelry dips and cleaners, and do not use paper towels or any kind of paper.
  • You can use a soft, lint-free cloth to maintain shine.
  • Always best to put your jewelry on last after getting dressed and take off first before getting undressed.
  • Best to remove your jewelry before doing things that will get your items wet or
  • create contact with household cleaners of any kind.
  • Avoid water of any kind where possible, including salt water, chlorine water, etc.
  • Don’t work out with your jewelry, especially with rings, to avoid contact with metal such as from weights where friction can cause damage over time to band and/or stone.
  • When applying body care products such as perfumes or lotions, it’s always best to apply, wait a few minutes to let dry, and then put your jewelry on.

How to Care for Your Eternity Bands

Jewelry Care Guide: Ten Essential Tips for Your Eternity Band
Welcome to our jewelry care guide, where we share vital tips for maintaining the beauty of your eternity band. While some suggestions may seem straightforward, we've observed the wear and tear that daily activities can inflict on jewelry. We've had clients who lost stones or damaged their rings to the point of needing a complete reset—don’t let that happen to you! Follow these guidelines to keep your jewelry looking as stunning as the day you first wore it.
Top Tips for Caring for Your Eternity Band:
1. Utilize Your Middle Knuckles: When possible, use your middle knuckles to avoid putting pressure on the stones and prevent scratches or warping of the metal. With time, this technique will become second nature. Instead of making a fist, try to keep some space between your fingers and palm.
2. Remove Rings During Activities: Take off your rings when engaging in tasks like cooking, cleaning, or bathing to minimize the buildup of soap scum and grime on your gems.
3. Avoid Heavy Luggage: When traveling, place heavy bags in the trunk and carry-on items in the overhead bin using your other hand.
4. Travel Cautiously: Exercise care while on vacation.  Sand, sunscreen, and chlorine water can be harmful to your rings. 
5. Handle Packages with Care: Be gentle when unboxing deliveries, as rough handling can put your ring at risk.
6. Beware of Door Knobs: Frequent contact with door knobs can damage the metal of your ring. Remember, precious metals can warp with repeated pressure.
7. Be Cautious with Stacking Rings: Our eternity bands are designed to protect their gems. However, other rings may leave stones exposed to scratches. Consider a thin spacer band if you plan to stack.
8. Take Rings Off When Moving Furniture: This one is straightforward—remove your rings to avoid accidents.
9. Skip the Clapping: Rings aren’t meant to be treated like percussion instruments, so save the clapping for after you take them off.
10. Wear and Maintain: Remember, demi-fine jewelry is like any luxury item: it’s designed for frequent wear but requires some tender loving care and occasional maintenance.
By following these tips, you can ensure your eternity band stays as beautiful as ever!
