To keep your jewellery sparkly and clean and avoid denting please avoid swimming or showering while wearing silver or gold-plated items. Use perfume, body lotions and suntan products prior to wearing your Jewelry as they often contain chemicals which could cause discolouration. Our Maou woven bracelets are made of very fine and delicate materials. Silk, silver, and gold-plated metals, should be handle with great care. To prevent oxidation, tarnishing and staining, we advise you to keep each item separately, in the Maou Box on the cushion when not worn. The Maou Bracelets can be Cleaned using a soft, non- abrasive soap. You can soak them in warm water with a delicate textile cleaning detergent and dry with a soft silver polishing cloth.
