Jive Jewelry Tips - Cleaning Your Myka Jewelry

Myka Designs is a contemporary jewelry company that releases exciting new designs each season. Each Myka Designs piece is designed using an assortment of crystals, stones, and glass/resin beads. The jewels are cast in a pewter alloy, which is electroplated and hand relieved to give each item an "antique" look. Jive Jewelry carries a variety of these unique pieces that are sure to catch the eye of anyone in the room.

After you buy a Myka Designs, the obvious question arises: how do you keep your jewelry looking beautiful? What steps can you take to ensure your Myka Designs piece looks as good as it did the day you bought it?

Designers Maja Ilic and Michael Bremer don't use standard materials to create their beautiful pieces, so you can't use standard cleaning techniques. Jive Jewelry understands that the life of a piece is almost as important as the design itself. Therefore, to ensure your jewelry lasts, we compiled a list of simple guidelines to help you care for your Myka Designs piece:

• Remember that each Myka Designs piece is made with a plated finish.
• Heavy use of hairspray or perfume could eventually damage the finish. Put on perfume or hairspray before you put on your jewelry.
• Don't use silver or jewelry cleaners. Standard jewelry cleaners contain solvents that may react with the Myka Designs plated finish.
• Try not to bath or swim while wearing your piece. Over time, water and salt water will damage your jewelry.
