HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR JEWELRY

SILVER

925 silver, also known as sterling silver, is a popular material for creating jewelry due to its beauty and durability. However, like any other precious metal, 925 silver requires some care to maintain its shine and prevent oxidation.

Here are some tips for taking care of 925 silver jewelry:

  1. Store jewelry in a dry place and away from direct sunlight. Moisture and light can cause oxidation and dullness of the silver.

  2. Avoid exposing 925 silver jewelry to chemicals such as perfumes, hair sprays, and household cleaning products. These products can cause permanent damage to the metal.

  3. Remove 925 silver jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising. Water and sweat can accelerate oxidation.

  4. Regularly clean 925 silver jewelry with a soft, clean cloth. Avoid using toilet paper or rough towels, which can scratch the surface.

  5. Use a specific 925 silver jewelry cleaner to remove tarnish and oxidation. It is recommended to use specific products to avoid damage to the jewelry.

  6. Store 925 silver jewelry in a fabric bag or a container with an airtight seal to prevent oxidation.
