Care Instructions

Adhering to proper care and maintenance practices is essential to preserve the beauty and longevity of your Kossie Tienne jewelry. Follow these meticulous care instructions to uphold the impeccable condition of your pieces.


Jewelry Storage:

  • Individualized Storage: When not adorning your attire, store each piece separately in the designated zip lock pouches provided. This precautionary measure mitigates potential discoloration resulting from exposure to atmospheric elements.
  • Moisture Avoidance: Opt for storage in a dry environment, devoid of moisture and humidity. Consider utilizing silica gel packets to effectively absorb any residual moisture.
  • Chemical Avoidance: Exercise caution to prevent exposure of your jewelry to household chemicals, perfumes, and lotions, as their chemical composition may lead to tarnishing and detrimental effects on both metals and gemstones.


Material Considerations:

Understanding the composition of the materials utilized in your jewelry facilitates appropriate care procedures.
  • 18K Gold Vermeil: For items fashioned from 18K Gold Vermeil silver, a simple wipe with a soft cloth suffices for maintenance.
  • 925 Silver: For Nickel-Free Sterling Silver products, exercise gentle care by utilizing the provided specialized silver care cloth.
  • Gemstones: Employ a soft, damp cloth to delicately cleanse gemstones. Refrain from utilizing ultrasonic cleaners, as certain stones are susceptible to damage.
  • Pearls: Following each wear, delicately wipe pearls with a soft cloth to eliminate residual body oils and dirt. Avoid subjecting them to ultrasonic cleaners and store them in a soft pouch to minimize the risk of scratches and desiccation.

Material Composition:

All Kossie Tienne jewelry is meticulously crafted from nickel-free sterling silver 92.5. Certain pieces boast 18k Gold Vermeil, achieved through a meticulous process entailing the application of a substantial layer of 18 karat yellow or white gold onto sterling silver. Additionally, natural freshwater pearls and gemstones are incorporated into our designs.
