Care Recommendations
Montblanc recommends removing jewellery, especially rings, during household chores and gardening. Please avoid contact with salty water, soap, cosmetic products, fragrances, hairsprays and corrosive or solvent-based cleaning agents. Substances such as chlorine may permanently damage or discolour your Montblanc jewellery, especially at high temperatures. Please avoid wearing your Montblanc jewellery to the beach, swimming pool, hot tub or playing sports in order to protect it from damage. Please be sure to have the stones’ settings checked regularly by one of our goldsmiths to ensure they are still securely set.
Precious metals and stones vary in their characteristics and handling needs. The following paragraphs outline the specific care recommendations for your individual product.
Important note:
Do not use an ultrasonic bath for jewellery with precious resin or natural components such as pearls, mother-of- pearl, wood, rubber or leather.
When your Montblanc jewellery is not worn, Montblanc recommends keeping it in the packaging provided (e.g. pouch or box), stored in a dry and dark space. Please note that high temperatures, strong light or high humidity may cause undesired changes in the material. In regions with high humidity, it is recommended that desiccating crystals (e.g. silica gel) are placed with the jewellery pieces.
All Montblanc necklaces should lie flat to avoid any bending. In general, pieces of jewellery should not be placed on top of one another in a box, pouch or drawer.
Sterling Silver
Tarnishing of sterling silver jewellery is a natural effect
and cannot be fully avoided. Regular cleaning of silver jewellery with a silver
polishing cloth is recommended.
Gold/Platinum
To preserve the beauty of your gold or platinum jewellery,
dust and dirt should be removed by wiping it off with a damp cloth. Montblanc
recommends having your piece of jewellery serviced on a regular basis.
Montblanc provides a professional cleaning service in an ultrasonic bath. For
more thorough cleaning, Montblanc offers a polishing service performed by one
of our goldsmiths to recover the original brilliance and shine of your product.
Especially for gold jewellery, having it polished once a year is recommended.
Pearls/Mother-of-Pearl
Montblanc recommends cleaning your piece of jewellery
adorned with pearls or mother-of-pearl with a damp cloth, carefully wiping the
pearls or mother-of-pearl. Afterwards, dry your jewellery using a soft cloth.
Stainless Steel
The stainless steel used in Montblanc jewellery is a very
hard and resistant material which does not stain, tarnish, discolour or scratch
easily. However, shiny and polished stainless steel is more sensitive and
should not be exposed to sharp surfaces. Over time, stainless steel may show
signs of wear and tear.
Wood
Please clean the jewellery as recommended. For the wooden
parts, moisten the wood with a drop of mineral or almond oil on a cotton ball.
Let the wood absorb the oil and then wipe off the remains. Please do not apply
oil to other parts.
Rubber
If your piece of jewellery has rubber inlays, please do not
use any strong chemical cleaning agents. Please avoid scratches or cuts on the
rubber, as this may cause the material to break.
Magnets
Montblanc jewellery products with magnets should not be used
by individuals fitted with pacemakers, defibrillators, implanted insulin pumps,
transdermal drug delivery patches or other electro- medical devices, during
pregnancy or while nursing an infant. Use of these products should also be
avoided in the vicinity of high-voltage machinery or cables. The magnetic field
emitted by these products may affect objects sensitive to magnets, such as
credit cards or other magnetic cards, sensitive data storage devices or
displays, personal digital assistants, video/audio tapes and similar items. The
magnetic field emitted by these products may also affect the proper functioning
of mechanical and quartz watches, so watches should not be stored in or near
the products. These products are not toys and should be kept out of the reach
of children. These products are not sold as medical devices and do not replace
any professionally prescribed medical treatments.
Precious Resin/Lacquer
Precious resin, lacquer and any other precious material may
develop fine cracks if knocked or dropped. Please do not use any strong
chemical cleaning agents.
Diamonds
It is recommended that diamonds are handled with care to
maintain the lifetime of their brilliance. Avoid contact with chemical products
such as fragrances and detergents, as these substances may tarnish precious
stones.
Gemstones/Precious Stones
Gemstones are very sensitive and may change colour if not
treated properly. Gemstones should not be exposed to sunlight for a prolonged
time as this may cause undesired changes in the material.
Leather
Leather is a natural material that is sensitive to the
effects of light, humidity and water. To keep your Montblanc jewellery product
with leather parts in perfect condition and prevent the colour from fading,
Montblanc recommends protecting it from prolonged exposure to high temperatures
or direct sunlight. In the event of contact with water, it should be dried
promptly with a soft, smooth cloth. To maintain its natural softness, Montblanc
recommends treating the leather parts with a neutral leather-care product.
