To preserve the beauty and longevity of your Cinnabar Gourd Necklace, please follow these care recommendations:

  • Avoid Water & Moisture: Remove your necklace before showering, swimming, or exercising to protect the gold-plated finish and decorative components.

  • Clean Gently: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the gold-plated areas. Avoid abrasive materials, polishing chemicals, and ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Avoid Heat & Sunlight: Keep away from high temperatures, direct heat sources, and prolonged sunlight. Never heat or burn cinnabar materials.
