How to Keep Your Murano Glass Jewelry Sparkling: The Ultimate Care Guide
Murano glass jewelry is a unique work of art: handmade, full of color and finesse. To preserve that enchanting beauty, it deserves extra care. Especially for you, I've gathered the best tips – light, practical, and filled with love for these timeless pieces.
1. Minimalist daily maintenance
Regularly use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to gently wipe away any dust or dirt. This is usually enough to keep your jewelry fresh.
If necessary, use a slightly damp cloth with lukewarm water for stubborn stains.
2. Deep cleaning — with care
For thorough cleaning, mix a mild, neutral soap with lukewarm water. Moisten a soft cloth with this solution, gently clean your jewelry, and then rinse thoroughly with clean, lukewarm water . Drying immediately with a lint-free cloth prevents water spots.
Caution: Never soak your Murano jewelry in water. This can damage metal parts and cause unwanted wear.
3. Avoid harmful contact moments
-
Apply perfume, hairspray or deodorant before wearing your jewelry to prevent the substances from coming into direct contact with the glass.
-
Don't wear your Murano jewelry while showering, swimming, exercising, or sleeping. Contact with water, sweat, and rough surfaces can cause scratches or damage.
-
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, abrasive cloths or heat (such as the dishwasher or microwave).
4. Store carefully
-
Store each piece of jewelry separately in a soft, dust-free container or jewelry box . This prevents the pieces from rubbing against each other and causing scratches.
-
Store your jewelry in a dry place , away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This protects against discoloration and moisture problems.
5. Prevent oxidation (on silver parts)
Do you have Murano jewelry with silver components , such as pendants or embellishments? Store them in special velvet pouches to prevent discoloration. Is that already there? You can carefully clean the silver parts without touching the glass.
6. Give the craftsmanship the love it deserves
-
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources as this may cause colour fading or damage.
-
For valuable or intricate pieces, consider a professional cleaning or inspection to keep your jewelry in top condition.
Your Murano shine forever
In short: clean gently, store responsibly, and wear with love. This way, the precious beauty of Murano glass will continue to sparkle – today, just as it did when you first admired it.
At Bella Murano, I strive to make your jewelry more than just jewelry: it's a timeless work of art filled with special stories. With this care guide, you can cherish them, so that every time you wear them, you'll experience that feeling of craftsmanship and beauty anew.
