How to keep your chain looking brand new

One of the advantages of 316L stainless steel jewellery is that it needs almost no maintenance — but a few habits will keep it looking sharp for years.

You can wear it in water

Unlike plated jewellery, our pieces are heat, water and sweat resistant, so showering, swimming or wearing it to the gym won't damage it.

Give it an occasional wipe

A soft cloth wipe every couple of weeks removes any build-up from lotion, sweat or perfume, keeping the finish bright.

Avoid harsh chemicals

Chlorine and strong cleaning products can dull any metal over time. It won't ruin the piece, but for the best long-term shine, rinse it off after pool or chemical exposure.

Store it flat or hung

When you're not wearing it, lay chains flat or hang them to avoid tangling and stretching over time.

Every piece comes with our lifetime guarantee, so you're covered either way. Shop the full range in Chains.
