NATALIE BENMAYOR, DESIGNER AND FOUNDER
Natalie uses her family history and experience of different cultures and aesthetics to create designs that offer the potential for personalisation, bespoke to the wearer. Her family history carries with it an evocative story, fleeing to London from exile in Egypt, smuggling across seas nothing but their jewels, and so her love for jewellery that’s precious and meaningful has been embedded since her youth. The family pieces were placed in a London vault before their rediscovery and their story has inspired the first capsule, with the symbols used taken from ancient Egypt. This box of treasure represented a family time capsule which also inspired the brand’s name.
The jewellery explores the philosophies of amulet wearing, alongside modern wellness techniques she has picked up on her travels and discovered through her own healing journey. Capsule Eleven’s designs explore the balance between meaning and personal style in equal measure.
The British-born half-Egyptian designer has always followed her own path in design as well as working for many global brands, founded her own labels through to bespoke work.
Jewellery Care
wearing, cleaning and storing your jewellery, it will give the plating its longest possible lifespan.
How To Clean Your Jewellery
Jewellery with stones can be cleaned as described below:
1. Mix some washing up liquid into some lukewarm water.
2. Soak the jewellery in the water for up to ten minutes.
3. Use a soft toothbrush to clean around stones or use your fingers to rub.
4. Take the jewellery out, rinse it with water and leave it to dry naturally.
Cleaning Silver Jewellery
Over time, all silver jewellery can become worn down or discoloured due to reacting with moisture in the air, oils, perfumes, body lotions or sweat. If you see a light discolouring, you can use a silver polishing cloth and rub the area until it shines again. If your jewellery is showing heavy signs of oxidization, we recommend you use a specialist silver cleaning solution, dip the polishing cloth in this and rub on the areas affected. After cleaning, rinse the jewellery in water to remove any leftover solution and leave to dry.
Cleaning Gold Jewellery
Gold jewellery can also discolour, although this more rarely. If you see a light discolouration, use a gold polishing cloth and rub on the area until it’s gone. If the
tarnishing is heavier, we recommend you using a specialist gold cleaning solution, dipping in a gold polishing cloth and rubbing it on the affected area. Do not dip the jewellery
straight in the solution as it is too harsh. After cleaning, rinse the jewellery in water to remove any leftover solution and leave to dry.
How to Keep Jewellery Gleaming
Store items in their Capsule Eleven jewellery box or any other box that is sealed, when not being worn.
Never store your jewellery anywhere where there is moisture such as bathrooms or leaving it on a kitchen side as it will oxidize more rapidly.
Do not wear your jewellery when swimming, especially in pools where there is chlorine as this can cause rapid oxidization. Also avoid wearing your jewellery in the sea, in the shower, or during tough workouts where you may sweat as this also reduces the life of the plating.
Avoid spraying perfumes near the jewellery or getting it near any household cleaning products.
