Reflet de notre expertise en matière de fabrication française, nos bijoux Les Georgettes méritent d’être traités avec le plus grand respect ! Pour les dorloter comme il se doit, nous vous recommandons de les manier avec précaution. Dans cet article, on vous donne plein de conseils pour bien les bichonner, sans les abîmer.
THE GOLDEN RULES
1. First of all, we recommend you wait to put your jewellery on until you're made-up, dressed and ready, just before you go out. That way, you avoid contact with the corrosive or chemical products that may be in perfumes and make-up.
2. We advise you not to wear your jewellery during sports, manual activities (DIY, gardening, housework, etc.) or water sports (at the pool or in the sea). Also, please remember that your jewellery doesn't like water! So avoid getting it wet when you have a bath, wash your hands or do the dishes.
3. Your pet enjoys your caresses, but your Les Georgettes jewellery will happily do without them. It's best not to fiddle with it too much! If you need to adjust it, follow the tips in this article.

CARE
You have two options for caring for your jewellery:
- Once a month, shampoo your jewellery gently with neutral soap and lukewarm water. Then, wipe the pieces gently using a clean cotton towel, but don't rub them.
- You could also apply lemon juice diluted in water on a chamois or make-up remover pad. CAUTION: NEVER use a paper towel, cloth or handkerchief. You risk scratching your jewellery if you do.

CLEANING
There are three ways you can remove a stain from your jewellery:
- Toothpaste: apply it on a toothbrush and rub gently where your jewellery is stained. The more recent the stain, the easier it will be to remove.
- White vinegar: mix it with flour and coarse salt to make a paste. Apply it gently with your fingertips to avoid scratching.
- Baking soda: a small amount onto a chamois. PLEASE NOTE: This technique reduces stains; it doesn't make them disappear. If the stain is stubborn, use one of the two options mentioned above instead.

MAKE IT SHINE
What's your 2-in-1 best friend when it comes to making your Les Georgettes creations shine and sparkle? Cleansing milk. It preserves your brass jewellery's lustre and makes your reversible leathers shine, too. Always start by using the cleansing milk on the piece of jewellery, applying it with a cotton wool ball soaked in the cleanser. Then, finish with the leather to remove any marks. Tadaaa! Your jewellery and leather will be like new. You can also use this technique with a shoe cream specially designed for leather. For the best possible result on brass, soak your jewellery for an hour in lukewarm water with white vinegar or diluted lemon juice roughly four times a year. This will revive your jewellery's original shine.
