Gold Bar Cleaning and Storage

Owning physical gold is a sound way to protect and preserve wealth—but maintaining its quality over time is nearly as important as the investment itself. 

Understanding gold bar maintenance and proper bar storage tips helps ensure your investment stays in top condition for years to come.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR CEBUANA LHUILLIER GOLD BAR

Gold doesn’t tarnish and typically doesn’t require cleaning. However, if you choose to clean your gold bars, be aware that cleaning may leave minor scratches or surface marks. With the right technique, it’s safe to give them the occasional touch-up.

  • To gently clean your gold bar, mix mild soap with distilled water in a shallow container.
  • Submerge the bar for a few minutes to loosen surface dirt and rinse delicately with lukewarm water. 
  • You can gently wipe dry with a microfiber cloth—but be aware this may leave small marks that could affect resale.

While many investors prefer to enlist third party vault services for security, some may choose to store gold at home. If you’re considering this, here are essential bar storage tips to protect your investment:

  • Minimize exposure to moisture and corrosive elements 
    • A dry, stable environment is key.
  • Use a high-quality safe
    • Ideally one that is fireproof and can be bolted down.
  • Don’t store gold and silver together
    • These metals react differently and can damage each other when in close contact.
  • Limit who knows where gold bars are stored
    • Keep the existence and location of your gold bar private—even from friends and family.
  • Plan for emergencies
    • Choose one trusted person to access your safe in case something happens to you.
  • Review your insurance
    • Some homeowners insurance may not fully cover your gold. Look into specialized insurance to better secure your investment.

With the right preservation techniques, your investment can remain safe, secure, and untarnished.

Necklace Size Guide

There’s nothing quite like a gold chain that fits around your neck just right, which is why we put together this necklace size guide. Browse our fit tips to learn how to choose the preloved necklace for you.

Size Categories

People think of the necklace as the centerpiece of the outfit, and we agree. Its shine, make, and length are the first things to grab the eye. These five size categories serve different aesthetic purposes. Understand what works for you, and you’ll come one step closer to finding your perfect, preloved golden piece.

  1. Collar / Choker Necklace – Measuring at 30.5 to 40cm in length, the choker fits snugly (not tightly)—around the base of the neck. There should be room for at least a finger between the choker and the skin of the neck. Chokers are very stylistically versatile, and can work for both casual and formal outfits.
  2. Short / Princess Necklace – As befitting their name, Princess necklaces have a regal quality to them, as shown by the way they tend to elegantly rest between the collarbones. These necklaces tend to measure at 40-47cm in length. Chains of this size are subtle, while pendant necklaces of this size make more of a statement.
  3. Medium / Matinee Necklace – The Matinee necklace is usually 47-60cm long, which means there’s a lot of range to its style and versatility. While necklaces this size usually have pearls, they make just as much of an impact in the form of gold chains.
  4. Long / Opera Necklace – Perfect for cocktail parties and other formal affairs and special events, these necklaces measure 60-75cm in length. While Opera necklaces look perfectly elegant alone, they are also fun to layer with other necklaces of different sizes.
  5. Very Long / Rope Necklace – 85-100cm is the length that maxes out the Rope necklace. Make a big statement and let it hang, or style it into a variety of knots.

Bracelet Size Guide

Finding a bracelet of the right size can be tough, especially when you’re purchasing preloved pieces. Our bracelet size guide teaches you how to measure bracelet size, the nuances of bracelet lengths, and more fit tips.

Size Categories

Style and comfort are not mutually opposed concepts, but related qualities. That’s especially true for bracelets. Depending on how comfortably they fit you, they can make or break an outfit. Here you’ll find a general size guide for bracelets, which are separated into categories of comfort.

  1. Snug Fit – A snug fit bracelet is 0.5 to 1cm larger in circumference than your wrist. These types of bracelets cling securely to the wrist.
  2. Comfortable Fit – These types of bracelets tend to be 2-2.5cm larger in circumference than your wrist. Some bangles and chains tend to fall in this size category.
  3. Loose Fit – When a bracelet fits loosely, it’s likely 3 or more cm larger in circumference than your wrist. Their size tends to be attention-grabbing.

How to Measure Your Wrist

A simple, flexible tape measure is all you need to get the circumference of your wrist. Simply wrap the tape measure around the wrist bone and mark where the tape measure overlaps. Do your best to not tighten the tape so that the measurement is exact, and so that your future bracelet purposes are as snug, comfy, or loose as you want them to be.

Earrings Size Guide

Everything you need to know about earring sizes can be found here in our size guide. Our tips and tricks apply to all sizes and styles in our store–small and large, hoops and studs.

Size Categories

When deciding on the right size of earring for you, it’s helpful to refer to general size categories, before taking exact measurements in centimeters. Earrings can be divided into roughly four size categories.

  1. Small – Small earrings are often 1-3cm small. When worn and styled properly, their impact is subtle and understated.
  2. Medium – Measuring at around 4-5cm, medium-sized earrings are quite visible. This is a comfort zone for most earring wearers.
  3. Large – Large earrings are bound to make a big statement, especially considering that they often measure at 6.5-8cm.
  4. Extra Large – Many kinds of drop earrings fall under this category. If the earrings are bigger than 8cm, they’re extra large.

Weight Categories

Another aspect of earring size to consider is weight. Earrings can be sorted into two general weight categories.

  1. Lightweight – In this category, earrings weigh about 2-4 grams. Perfect for everyday use.
  2. Medium Weight – At 5-7 grams, medium weight earrings can register as quite heavy for people with sensitive ears. Recommended for special occasions.
  3. Heavyweight – 8 grams and above are what make a pair of earrings quantifiably heavy. Big earrings can make a big statement but wearing them also risks stretching the earlobes.
