Troubleshooting

The ring has lost its luster.

Gently buff the surface with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to restore its natural sheen without using chemicals.

The black patina appears to be fading.

Avoid contact with water and soaps, as these can accelerate the wear of the decorative patina finish.

The ring feels slightly loose or tight.

Vivienne Westwood rings are non-adjustable due to their intricate structure; ensure you consult a sizing guide before purchase or seek professional resizing from a certified jeweler if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vivienne Westwood Albane ring, proper care is essential. Always remove the ring before washing your hands, swimming, or applying lotions, as harsh chemicals and moisture can degrade the gold-tone finish and affect the integrity of the black patina. Store the ring in its provided pouch or a soft-lined jewelry box away from other metal items to prevent scratching. If the ring requires cleaning, use only a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe away dust; avoid ultrasonic cleaners or harsh silver polishes that might strip the patina finish.
