Are ceramic beads resistant to water or perfume?
As a rule, ceramic beads are relatively hard-wearing, especially when glazed, which gives them a smooth, shiny protective coating. However, as with most jewelry components, it is advisable to avoid prolonged contact with water, perfume or chemicals.
Repeated exposure to moisture or substances such as the alcohol in perfume can, in the long term :
- dull enamel lustre,
- weaken mounts or wires,
- alter hand-painted colors or special finishes.
To preserve the beauty and durability of your handcrafted jewelry, we recommend :
- remove your jewelry before showering, swimming or any wet activity,
- apply your own perfume before putting on your jewelry,
- store your creations away from humidity and direct light.
Protected in this way, your beads will retain their handcrafted brilliance and unique appearance for many years to come.
