K Kane jewelry is made in the USA and subject to strict quality control requirements throughout its production. Due to it’s handmade and inherently delicate nature, it is important that you care for your jewelry according to the following guidelines:
- Remove your jewelry prior to any activity that will put added strain on it or cause it to catch: sleeping, exercising, lifting heavy objects.
- Take care to avoid extended exposure to water or any chemicals and products. Remove it prior to swimming, showering, putting on perfumes and lotions, etc.
- When you are not wearing your jewelry, be sure to store it separately so that it does not get tangled or scratched by other pieces of jewelry.
- Follow the below instructions to periodically clean your pieces.
GRAFFITI & SIGNATURE COLLECTIONS:
Please clean your pieces according to the below instructions by metal type.
RHODIUM PLATED SILVER
Rhodium plated silver can be cleaned with a solution of hot water and Dawn dish soap. Rinse and dry thoroughly after soaking!
STERLING SILVER
Sterling Silver becomes tarnished due to oxidation, which occurs for a variety of reasons such as exposure to humidity in the air, interaction with the oil on your skin, and contact with chlorinated water. To prevent your jewelry from tarnishing, store it in a clean, dry, airtight place when you are not wearing it. Tarnish can easily be removed by gently cleaning your piece with a soft silver polishing cloth. You can also soak your sterling silver pieces in a mixture of hot water and Dawn dish soap. Rinse and dry thoroughly afterwards.
SOLID GOLD
Clean with a liquid gold cleaner or Windex, rinse with hot water and dry well!
CHAIN LETTER COLLECTION:
CHAIN LETTER NEONS:
To prolong the life and beauty of your bracelet, please avoid extended exposure to water such as showering, swimming or exercising in it.
CHAIN LETTER NECKLACE, BRACELET, EARRINGS AND RINGS:
- Use a polishing cloth to gently polish the chain and letters on your piece. (Our favorite polishing cloth can be found here)
- Rub each individual letter with the cloth and be careful not to tug too hard on the links that attach each letter together.
- Place your piece in a shallow dish and spray Windex to submerge the piece in the product. Let the Windex and piece of jewelry soak for about 20 minutes.
- Rinse the piece with hot water and dry with a soft cloth.

K KANE BRIDE COLLECTION:
- Fill a small bowl with hot water and several drops of Dawn dish soap.
- Soak ring for 20-40 minutes, or overnight depending on how dirty your ring is.
- Take a soft bristled toothbrush or eyelash spoolie (our preference), apply dawn to the brush head like toothpaste, and use the brush to gently scrub the underside of your setting.
- If your ring is still dirty repeat steps 2-4.
- Rinse your ring in hot water and dry it with a soft cloth or accelerator dryer.
- A steamer or ultrasonic machine will greatly augment the above method. This is our favorite home steamer, and many of our clients like this ultrasonic.
