Care advice for silver jewellery

Our silver jewelry is made of 925 nickel-free sterling silver. It is a solid and durable material that makes the jewelry less sensitive. However, it is important that you take care of your jewelry so that you can enjoy it for many years.

As the jewelry is slightly oxidized, to get a slightly darker finish, it is important that you DO NOT use any form of silver polish or silver dip. This will remove the dark oxidation but will leave stains that will not disappear from the jewelry.

• The included box is great for storing your jewelry when you're not wearing it. Silver jewelry looks best when it doesn't have to be mixed with other jewelry.
• It is a good idea to wipe the jewelry after each use so that it is clean of skin oils, exhaust fumes, and the like.
• It is fine to sleep, bathe/shower and perform everyday tasks (such as gardening, washing dishes, exercising, etc.) with the jewelry on. However, we recommend that you take it off during these activities to avoid unnecessary wear.
• Clean them regularly to keep the luster of the jewelry longer.

Silver jewelry worn daily will darken further over time due to oxidation and dirt. This phenomenon has several explanations, partly because our skin secretes salts and minerals. It is also due to grease, skin cream and impurities in the air. By regularly cleaning your jewelry, you slow down the process. However, it is relatively easy to remove these discolorations.

CLEAN YOUR SILVER JEWELRY

To remove everyday dirt from your jewelry, you can put it in hot water with a few drops of dish soap. Leave it for a few minutes and then brush the dirt off with a toothbrush.

When a grey or yellowish coating has formed on the jewellery, this is most easily removed with a silver jewellery polishing cloth. If the dirt is stubborn, you may need to repeat the process a couple of times.
