Jewelry Care

Silver and gold care is similar, the main difference is gold will not tarnish.​

​

• Storing your jewelry in a cool, dry place will help to slow the tarnishing process.

• Remove when cleaning, swimming and taking a shower. Also avoid using harch chemicals while wearing your jewelry.

• The best way to clean your jewelry is with a professional jewelry polishing cloth (available at most supermarkets, hardware and jewelry stores). The cloth contains cleaning chemicals, will last a long time and gives a great shine.  Rub gently to remove tarnish.

• For heavier tarnish, use a non-abrasive brand name liquid or paste silver polish. Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove all traces of polish.  Dry thoroughly.  Try to avoid getting polish on gemstones.

• Another natural way to clean your silver jewelry is to fill an aluminum pan with really hot (but not boiling) tap water. Add about 2 teaspoons of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir a bit. Add your jewelry and let soak for 10 minutes. Rinse and dry thoroughly. 

• If you wear your sterling silver jewelry regularly, your body oils help to keep the tarnishing down and cleaning to a minimum.
