For S925 Silver Products
To care for 925 sterling silver, store it in an airtight, dry, and cool place. Regularly clean with a soft cloth and avoid chemicals, including perfume and hairspray.
- Preventive Measures: Wear your jewelry often; the natural oils in your skin help prevent tarnish.
- Avoid Chemicals: Keep silver away from harsh chemicals, bleach, ammonia, and chlorine.
- Storage: Use specialized jewelry bags, anti-tarnish pouches, or airtight ziploc bags.
- Cleaning Process: For light cleaning, use a mild, neutral detergent in warm water and a soft-bristled brush.
- Daily Maintenance: Wipe pieces down with a soft cloth after each wear to remove oils and sweat.
What to Avoid:
- Humidity: Do not store silver in the bathroom.
- Skin/Hair Care Products: Always apply perfumes, lotions, and makeup before putting on jewelry ("last on, first off" rule).
Care for 18K gold and diamond jewelry by cleaning regularly with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft toothbrush. Store pieces separately in soft pouches to avoid scratches, as 18K gold is soft. Avoid exposing jewelry to chemicals, perfumes, and lotions.
- Cleaning Solution: Soak jewelry in warm water mixed with mild dish soap for 5–15 minutes.
- Gentle Scrubbing: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to remove dirt, focusing on settings and crevices.
- Rinsing and Drying: Rinse thoroughly under warm water and dry completely with a lint-free or microfiber cloth.
- Polishing: Use a jewelry polishing cloth to remove tarnish from silver and restore shine to gold. (You can order polishing cloth from the website)
- Professional Check-ups: Have a jeweler check settings regularly to ensure stones are secure.
