Ring Care Guide: Protect and Preserve Your Jewelry
The key to keeping your ring in pristine condition is preventative care. To ensure the longevity and beauty of your Morf Jewelry Rings, we recommend removing them during strenuous activities that could lead to scratches or damage.
Caring for Metal Rings (Tungsten Carbide, Silver, Titanium)
Daily wear can result in small scratches and dings on metal rings, which is entirely normal and adds to the charm and character of a well-loved piece.
For rings with non-metal inlays, it's essential to avoid prolonged exposure to water or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the inlays sealed with a clear epoxy layer.
How to Care for Your Wooden Ring?
Wooden rings are low-maintenance yet unique pieces. To keep them looking their best, gently clean them occasionally with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to maintain their shine. The most important step in preserving a wooden ring is to minimize exposure to potential damage.
What Can Damage a Wooden Ring?
1. Water
Wooden rings finished with CA glue are water-resistant, so they can handle occasional handwashing. However, avoid prolonged exposure to saltwater, which can degrade the finish.
2. Impact
Bentwood rings are incredibly durable and constructed using infused adhesive and expertly bent wood for added strength and water resistance. While they can withstand everyday wear and tear, removing your ring during high-impact activities—like rock climbing or car repairs—is a wise choice. This precaution protects both the ring and your personal safety.
3. Chemicals
Certain chemicals, including those found in cleaning products, can weaken the finish on your wooden ring. When handling these products, it's best to wear rubber gloves or remove your ring entirely. For hand sanitizers, remove the ring, apply the sanitizer, and wait until your hands are completely dry before putting the ring back on.
Refinishing Your Wooden Ring
Over time, you may notice minor scratches or a slight loss of luster on your ring. Most scratches are surface-level and can easily be repaired.
By following these simple care tips, you can enjoy your ring's beauty and durability for years to come. Preserve the story it tells while keeping it in the best condition possible.
