Maintenance of Akillis Jewelry

Like any piece of fine jewelry, your AKILLIS jewelry is delicate and unique. To preserve its delicacy and brilliance, remember to remove it during sports or manual activities (gardening, construction, etc.).

Untreated precious metal develops a natural patina over time, giving it a unique history and charm. You may appreciate this patina; however, if you wish to restore a "like-new" appearance or if your diamonds appear dull due to accumulation of sea salt, cosmetics, chlorine, etc., you can clean them using the various techniques outlined below.

Checking the Setting and Maintaining Akillis Diamond Jewelry:

Your diamond-set AKILLIS jewelry can be cleaned by soaking it in warm soapy water (pH neutral soap), using a soft brush, then rinsing with cold water and drying it with a soft cloth.

If your AKILLIS diamond jewelry catches on clothing or emits a slight noise, this may indicate a movement of the claws. Therefore, we recommend having the settings regularly checked to ensure they are secure.

For that, visit one of our partner stores or our AKILLIS boutique at 354 Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris. For more information, you can contact our teams at +33 (0)1 40 13 64 04.

Maintenance of 18-Karat Gold and Aluminum Akillis Jewelry:

18-karat gold and aluminum AKILLIS jewelry, naturally develop a patina over time, giving each piece its unique story but potentially diminishing its brilliance. This is normal due to daily wear and friction. You can revive the shine of your jewelry by cleaning it with a chamois cloth for precious metals or using a specialized precious metal cleaning solution. You can also use clay stone to remove impurities, applying it to your jewelry with a soft cloth.

To maintain the brilliance of your jewelry for as long as possible, we recommend avoiding contact with seawater, household products, and humid environments.

Maintenance of Akillis Titanium Jewelry:

Although titanium is an extremely hard metal, it is subject to daily wear when worn, which can result in scratches or impacts on the product. We therefore recommend avoiding wearing your titanium jewelry during intense physical activities or in environments where they may come into contact with hard surfaces.

Titanium is corrosion-resistant, but some aggressive chemicals can still affect its surface, especially when coated with a surface treatment like DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon). Therefore, it is best to avoid contact with products such as detergents, solvents, or household chemicals.

Likewise, prolonged exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water can alter its appearance. We advise removing your titanium jewelry before swimming in the sea or in a pool.

General Tips for Maintaining Akillis Jewelry:

When you are not wearing your AKILLIS jewelry, we recommend storing it in its original case to avoid friction or impact. Avoid mixing it with other jewelry to prevent scratches and potential impacts. To maintain the brilliance and perfect condition of your jewelry, as well as its treatment, we also recommend avoiding contact with corrosive products.

By following these maintenance tips, you will preserve the beauty and brilliance of your AKILLIS jewelry over time.
