FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. General Jewelry Care
Fishfelon jewelry is crafted to last generations with proper care. Over time, dust, pollution, and wear can dull metals and gemstones. Professional cleanings are recommended annually. Fishfelon offers services including gemstone cleaning, pearl restringing, and clasp/earring back repair.



2. Sterling Silver Jewelry
Fishfelon pieces are all constructed with high-quality sterling silver, which may tarnish—especially when exposed to salt air or sulfur (e.g., rubber, some paper). Regular use actually helps prevent tarnish. Clean gently with silver jewelry cleaner and a soft cloth, rinse thoroughly, and dry. Avoid bleach and chlorine. Store silver in Fishfelon flannel bags or Pacific cloth to prevent tarnish.



3. Gemstone Jewelry
Handle with care—many gemstones (e.g., opal, emerald, tanzanite) are delicate. Even diamonds can chip if struck. Avoid stacking pieces that may scratch each other. Keep jewelry away from harsh chemicals, extreme heat, and ultrasonic cleaners. Clean diamonds with a 6:1 water-to-ammonia solution and a soft brush. Pearls should be professionally cleaned and restrung yearly.



4. Storage & Maintenance Tips
Always return jewelry to its original box or a tarnish-resistant pouch after wear. FishFelon flannel bags or Pacific cloth pouches help prevent scratching and tarnish. Regular inspections for loose settings or worn clasps can prevent loss or damage. For polishing, cleaning, or repairs, contact your nearest FishFelon service location or client support.
