The Timeless Appeal of Gold Jewellery: Care and Styling Guide

The Timeless Appeal of Gold Jewellery: Care and Styling Guide

There’s something about gold jewellery that never goes out of style. It’s classic, warm, and effortlessly elegant—whether you’re wearing a delicate chain on a coffee run or stacking bold bangles for a night out. At Masaat London, we love gold in all its forms —especially when it’s crafted in solid 9ct,14ct or 18ct gold, built to last a lifetime (and then some).

But as timeless as gold is, it still deserves a little love and care to keep it looking its best. Whether you’re a seasoned gold lover or just starting your collection, here’s our easy, no-fuss guide to caring for and styling your favourite pieces. 

Caring for Your Gold Jewellery

Gold is durable, but it appreciates a little attention:

  • Gentle cleaning goes a long way – Use warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth or toothbrush to remove daily buildup.
  • Store with care – Keep your gold jewellery in separate soft pouches or boxes to avoid scratching.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals – Take your jewellery off before hitting the gym, swimming, or cleaning around the house.

Got a Gemstone Engagement Ring? Show it a Little Extra Love

If your engagement ring features a gemstone — like one of our stunning Zambian emeralds or aquamarines — it’s important to remember that not all gems are as tough as diamonds. Emeralds, for example, are more delicate and can chip or crack if knocked. 

Here’s how to keep your gemstone ring in top shape:

  • Remove it for hands-on tasks – Cooking, cleaning, gardening… give your ring a break.
  • Avoid extreme temperatures – Sudden changes can stress the stone.
  • Get it checked – Regular professional cleaning and setting checks help ensure your stone stays secure and sparkling.

Styling Gold: Your Way, Every Day

Gold is endlessly versatile, so have fun with it:

  • Layer different lengths and textures for a personal, lived-in look.
  • Don’t shy away from mixing metals—just keep the vibe cohesive.
  • Let one piece take centre stage, and keep the rest minimal.

Jewellery should feel like you. At Masaat, we’re here to make sure your gold—and gemstones—stay beautiful for years to come.
