How do I care for my Sterling Silver jewelry?

We use .925 sterling silver, which means the material is sturdier and doesn't need as much cleaning and polishing. 

DRY SILVER IS HAPPY SILVER.

Pure water by itself doesn't damage sterling silver, but most of the water we're exposed to in our daily lives is not purified. Chemicals and contaminants in the water can result in tarnished and dull-looking silver, so it's best to know what's what when it comes to water. 

That being said, the less you expose your silver to water, the better. But there’s nothing wrong with forgetting to take it off every once in a while. If you’re not going for an oxidized look, keep all these things in mind.

BE MINDFUL WHEN IT COMES TO MAINTENANCE.

Air exposure can wreak havoc by tarnishing your delicate silver. Don't just leave it lying on your nightstand or in an open jewelry chest. And, don't just leave it in your purse or drawer! 

It's best to store silver in individual, air-tight bags with anti-tarnish properties. These types of bags keep air exposure out and keep the shininess and brilliance intact.

Unclasp and unhook the jewelry to avoid potential scratching. Do NOT bunch several pieces in the same bag to save time or space. This can create tangling, scratching, tarnish, and that is exactly what we are trying to avoid. If you are traveling with your jewelry, be sure to use a special case for protection

SOME DIY JEWELRY CLEANING HACKS:

WATER AND BAKING SODA METHOD

You will need 2 parts water to 1 part baking soda (use a bit more water if the jewelry has delicate features). Stir into a paste. Use an old toothbrush or cleaning wand to apply this DIY cleaner in gentle motions and movements. 

DISH LIQUID AND WATER

No fancy cleaning methods needed for this option. Simply rinse the jewelry off in the same way you would clean your own hands.
