Precautions for using Pilgrim jewellery

Madonna was the first who started this business. It was her idea to turn O-rings into wristbands. This ring was earlier used in plumbing trade. Some people realized about the new trend which Madonna going to introduced so her friends started working on this new trend to support success.

Pilgrim jewellery is easily recognized in different jewelries, not only for the affordability, but also due to its unique designs, combinations and changing trends of fashion as well. Pilgrim sends two collections every season in the market, one small and one large. Mostly they are designed for females but due to the increasing demand for males, pilgrim jewellery is also available for men. All of these designs are hand drawn by Annemette Markvad and her sister-in-law Birthe Markvad. Birthe was actually a school teacher and stepped in to help Pilgrim out for a short time but she has proved herself a perfect designer as well.

Like many other fashion jewellery, Pilgrim jewellery is also primarily crafted from tin, brass and copper. Then later on pieces are platted with gold and silver. Most of the pieces of pilgrim jewellery contain Swarovski crystals, pearls and beads. Beside these semiprecious metals like opal, amethyst and amazonite are also used.

Pilgrim jewellery is very vast, now-a-days, that it covers all items of the jewellery i.e. from studs to toe rings. It is suitable for the people belonging from any age group. Beside women jewellery, men jewellery is also available now-a-days. For younger girls, it is always a perfect choice because it is not as expensive as the real precious metal jewellery and younger girls can be prone to loose jewellery. By using this they have a different jewellery to wear with complete safety.

But for using jewellery lifelong, you have to maintain it properly.

It should be cleaned properly using a cloth with a proper polishing chemical. But it is not recommended to use the polishing chemical on the beads, Swarovski crystals and stones because they can be affected by the chemicals and their thin finish may be damaged from it. It is sensitive to chemicals. Therefore immediately clean your jewellery after any sort of contact with perfume, alcohol or hairspray. Contact with these chemicals will fasten the oxidation process that leads your jewellery to tarnishing.

Your jewellery may contain stones or decorative parts. It is a great idea to take off your jewellery before you are getting undressed and put it on after getting dressed. By doing this you will lessen the chances of breaking your jewellery.

You should store your jewellery in a dry place in a jewellery box or a cloth pouch or anything lined with anti-tarnish fabric. Jewellery box can be a perfect option for storing your jewellery items. Your jewellery box should consist of compartments that prevent your jewellery items from scratching and rubbing from each other.

Don’t store your jewellery in bathroom because high moisture can fasten oxidation process.
