Cleaning & Care
Our jewelry is designed for everyday use with minimal care. Here are some suggestions to help keep it looking lovely over time.
Remember that some level of patina can add character and depth to the piece. If you prefer a shiny look, regular maintenance is helpful. By following these care tips, you can keep your jewelry looking beautiful for years to come!
- STORAGE: When not wearing your jewelry, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using a jewelry box with compartments to prevent pieces from rubbing against each other. You may want to store your jewelry with anti-tarnish strips or pouches. These can help absorb moisture and prevent tarnishing.
- AVOID HUMIDITY: Moisture can accelerate tarnishing. Keep your jewelry away from humid environments like bathrooms.
- AVOID CHEMICALS: Avoid exposing your silver jewelry to harsh chemicals, including household cleaning products, perfumes, lotions, and hair products. These can dull the finish and potentially damage the metal.
- REMOVE DURING ACTIVITIES: Remove your jewelry before swimming, showering, exercising, or any activity that could expose it to sweat, chemicals, or abrasive materials.
- POLISHING: Use a soft, lint-free polishing cloth to gently wipe your jewelry. This helps remove dirt, oils, and light tarnish. Avoid using tissues or paper towels, as they can scratch the metal.
- AVOID ABRASIVE MATERIALS: When cleaning your jewelry, avoid using abrasive materials or brushes, as these can scratch the metal.
- CLEANING SOLUTIONS: Be cautious when using silver cleaning dips or solutions. Some of these products can remove tarnish quickly, but they may also remove the natural patina. If you choose to use a cleaning solution, follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully and use it sparingly.
