How should I care for my ring?
As a proud owner of a fine ring by Balfour, a few precautions and some simple
care will ensure your enjoyment of this fine piece of jewelry for years to come.
It is natural for gold and silver to tarnish. You can remove tarnish easily with
any good silver polish. After applying the polish with a soft cloth, clean your
ring in a mild soapy solution. Then rinse the ring in clear water and dry.
Chemicals can discolor your ring. Some, like mercury, chlorine or household
chemicals, can cause permanent damage. Your ring can also be damaged in any form
of heavy manual labor. To protect your ring, remove it whenever doing heavy
work, whenever exposed to chemicals, while working on or near heavy machinery,
or when working with power tools. Since temperature and exercise affect finger
size, wear your ring for at least two weeks before considering any size
adjustment.
