Care, tips, and considerations

Because this piece is not water resistant, remove it before swimming, bathing, or heavy chores around moisture. To preserve the gold-tone finish, wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store away from direct sunlight. Given its vintage status, expect minor surface scratches that authenticate its history—these marks are a natural part of its character and do not affect function.
