Silver Jewelry Care
Jewelry Care is essential to maintain its shine and longevity. Whether you have sterling silver, gold-plated, or gold-dipped pieces, here are some tips to keep your jewelry looking its best.
Caring for and Wearing Your Jewelry
When engaging in activities that may expose your jewelry to harsh chemicals or extreme conditions, it is advisable to remove them. Take off your jewelry before showering, bathing, exercising, or swimming in chlorinated pools or the sea. Also, avoid applying creams, perfume, or any liquids directly onto your jewelry to prevent damage.
Storing Your Jewelry
To prevent tarnishing, it is best to store your jewelry pieces in separate zip lock bags. This will minimize exposure to air and moisture. Additionally, storing your jewelry separately will help prevent them from rubbing against each other and tangling.
Cleaning Your Jewelry
For regular cleaning and to remove dirt and premature tarnish accumulation, a polishing cloth is recommended. Gently rub the cloth over your jewelry in one direction. Be cautious when using silver cleaners, as they may not be suitable for gold-plated or gold-dipped silver pieces. Avoid using tissue paper or paper towels, as they can cause scratches.
Preventing Tarnishing
At our store, 90% of our sterling silver jewelry is rhodium-plated to prevent tarnishing and enhance shine. However, it's important to note that silver can still tarnish when exposed to substances in our daily lives. By following the care tips mentioned above, you can protect and prolong the life of your jewelry.
Investing in Jewelry Care and putting a little time and effort in properly caring for your jewelry will ensure its beauty and longevity. Enjoy wearing your favorite pieces and keep them looking as stunning as the day you bought them.
