Jewellery Wear & Care

By Barny jewellery is designed to be worn, loved and lived in. With a little care, your pieces will continue to look beautiful for years to come.

Below are our simple wear and care tips to help you protect and enjoy your jewellery every day.


Everyday Wear

Our jewellery is made for everyday life, however gentle care will help maintain its finish and longevity.

We recommend:

  • Putting your jewellery on after applying perfume, lotions or hair products

  • Removing jewellery before swimming, showering or exercising

  • Avoiding contact with harsh chemicals, cleaning products or sanitiser

Jewellery is delicate by nature — treating it with care helps preserve its appearance over time.


Materials & Finishes

By Barny jewellery is primarily crafted using 18k gold-plated stainless steel and quality materials chosen for durability, comfort and wearability.

Gold-plated jewellery naturally experiences wear over time, particularly with daily use. This is a normal part of owning and loving plated pieces.

To help maintain the finish:

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to water

  • Gently wipe jewellery with a soft, dry cloth after wear

  • Store pieces carefully when not in use


Personalised & Engraved Jewellery

Personalised jewellery is made especially for you and should be handled with extra care.

We recommend:

  • Removing personalised pieces before sleeping

  • Avoiding impact or abrasion that may affect engraving

  • Storing pieces individually to prevent scratching

Engraved details are designed to last, but gentle wear will help keep them looking their best.


Permanent Jewellery Care

Permanent jewellery is designed to be worn continuously and fitted specifically to you.

While permanent jewellery is durable, we suggest:

  • Avoiding pulling or catching the chain

  • Removing the piece if engaging in activities that may place stress on it

  • Being mindful around tight clothing, bags or accessories

If your permanent jewellery needs to be removed, it can be cut at the jump ring. In many cases, it can be re-welded at a later time.


Storage

When not being worn, store your jewellery:

  • In a cool, dry place

  • Away from direct sunlight

  • In individual pouches or compartments to prevent tangling or scratching

Keeping jewellery properly stored helps maintain its finish and shape.


A Note on Longevity

All jewellery naturally shows signs of wear over time. This is part of its story — a reflection of moments lived and memories made.

With mindful care, your By Barny pieces will remain a meaningful part of your everyday jewellery collection.
