Made to Be Worn. Better With Proper Care.
MERENUS bracelets are built for everyday wear. Natural stone holds its color and its polish for years, and a few simple habits keep it looking the way it did on day one.
A few simple habits can help preserve the look, structure, and feel of your bracelet over time.
Keep Away From Harsh Chemicals
Avoid direct contact with:
- Perfume
- Cologne
- Hairspray
- Cleaning products
- Chlorine
- Strong detergents
- Other chemical substances
Keeping these off the stone is the easiest way to keep its polish.
We recommend putting your bracelet on after applying fragrance or skincare products.
Avoid Prolonged Water Exposure
Occasional contact with small amounts of water is usually not a problem, but we do not recommend wearing your bracelet while:
- Swimming
- Showering
- Bathing
- Using a sauna
- Washing dishes
- Exercising heavily
Salt water, chlorine and sweat can take the shine off a polished finish over time.
If your bracelet gets wet, dry it gently with a soft cloth.
Protect Natural Stone
Natural stone can vary in hardness and surface texture.
To help prevent scratches, chips, or unnecessary wear:
- Avoid dropping the bracelet onto hard surfaces
- Do not store it together with sharp metal objects
- Avoid strong impact or pressure
- Keep it away from abrasive surfaces
Natural variations, mineral lines, and small inclusions are part of the stone itself and are not considered defects.
Caring for Stainless Steel Components
Stainless steel is durable and suitable for everyday wear, but regular care will help maintain its appearance.
To clean metal components:
- Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
- For light dirt, use a slightly damp cloth.
- Dry completely before storing.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, polishing compounds, or rough brushes unless specifically recommended for that finish.
Caring for Elastic Bracelets
The elastic is chosen to flex with your wrist and spring back, day after day.
- Roll it over your hand instead of pulling it wide — it goes on in one motion
- Wipe off sunscreen, salt and sweat, then let it air dry
- Store it flat or loosely coiled, away from high heat
Treat it like you treat the beads and it stays as comfortable and as tidy as the day it arrived.
Caring for Clasp & Metal-Closure Bracelets
If your bracelet uses a clasp or metal closure:
- Open and close the clasp gently
- Do not force the mechanism
- Keep the clasp free from dust, dirt, and moisture
- Store the bracelet flat or loosely coiled
Open and close the clasp with an easy hand and it stays smooth for years.
How to Clean Your Bracelet
For most MERENUS bracelets, simple cleaning is enough.
Use:
- A soft microfiber cloth
- A soft, slightly damp cloth for light surface dirt
Avoid soaking the bracelet in water.
For natural stone pieces, do not use ultrasonic cleaners or aggressive chemical cleaning methods unless the specific stone is known to be suitable for them.
Store It Properly
When not wearing your bracelet, store it in a clean, dry place.
For best results:
- Keep it in its original pouch or box
- Store pieces separately to reduce scratching
- Avoid direct sunlight for long periods
- Keep away from high humidity and extreme temperatures
Good storage keeps the polish bright and the elastic springy.
A Note on Natural Materials
Natural stone is not completely uniform.
Over time, slight changes in surface appearance may occur depending on wear, skin contact, moisture, and environment.
This is part of wearing a natural material.
Each bracelet will develop its own character through use.
Wear It. Take Care of It. Keep It Longer.
Good materials are made to be used, not hidden away.
MERENUS bracelets are designed for everyday life, and with simple care, they can remain part of your rotation for years.
