Wooden Jewelry Care – How to Preserve the Beauty and Durability of Your Wooden Jewelry
Wooden Jewelry Care – If you’ve acquired wooden or handcrafted veneer jewelry from Lindenhill, you’re already familiar with their unique beauty and natural charm. However, like any valuable item, it’s important to consider how to care for your jewelry to maintain its beauty and durability for years to come.
Handcrafted wooden jewelry is designed for nature lovers and those who appreciate artisanal craftsmanship. Unlike metal jewelry, wooden and handcrafted veneer pieces require special care and attention. Here are some essential tips to ensure that your wooden jewelry and keepsakes remain vibrant and beautiful for years.
Wooden Jewelry Care: Properties and Strength
Wood is a natural material that differs significantly from metal. While wooden jewelry may not be as strong as metal jewelry, its durability should not be underestimated. With proper care and handling, wooden jewelry can bring you joy and beauty for a very long time.
All Lindenhill products are coated with high-quality Osmo oil wax, specifically designed for precious woods. This oil wax is skin-friendly and penetrates deep into the wood, highlighting the unique grain pattern and protecting it from external environmental factors. This means that your wooden jewelry is well-protected in everyday use. However, even the best care does not make wood waterproof or entirely resistant to potential damage.
Daily Care for Wooden Jewelry
Wooden jewelry is coated with a quality oil wax that creates a waterproof and water-repellent layer. Nevertheless, we recommend taking some precautions to protect your jewelry:
- Remove Jewelry Before Water Activities: Although the oil wax protects the wood, it is not advisable to wear wooden jewelry in the shower, while swimming, or when applying hand cream. Moisture and water can damage the wood and reduce its durability.
- Avoid Wearing Jewelry During Exercise: Physical activities like sweating and exertion can affect your jewelry. It’s best to keep your wooden jewelry in a safe place while engaging in physical activities.
- Clean and Maintain Regularly: If you notice your jewelry’s surface beginning to dull, we recommend gently cleaning it with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and then drying it. For the best results, you can apply a clear oil or wax designed for wood, such as beeswax, to restore its original shine and protection.
How to Extend the Life of Wooden Jewelry
Wooden jewelry is not only stylish but also an eco-conscious choice. With proper care, you can wear it for many years while preserving its natural beauty. If your jewelry loses its luster over time, it’s possible to refresh and restore it using appropriate care products.
By handling your wooden jewelry with care and attention, you can extend its lifespan and continue to enjoy its beauty and uniqueness for years. Lindenhill is dedicated to ensuring that your jewelry, accessories, and keepsakes remain beautiful and in excellent condition for a long time.
Conclusion
Caring for wooden jewelry is not complicated, but it does require some knowledge and attention. By following these simple care tips, you can ensure that your wooden jewelry remains beautiful and durable.
