You have spent a fair amount on buying jewellery or have a few pieces of special jewellery that have been given to you as gifts. Now the thing is to take care of it properly so that the jewellery will give you many years of good wear. When you take your jewellery out to clean it, it is always a good time to check to see if some pieces may need repairing. Always take care of your silver jewellery by observing a few rules. Silver tarnishes as a result of the following and you should be extra careful of delicate items.
- Do not apply hair colour, permanent solution, etc. while wearing your jewellery
- Do not apply sun tan lotion, perfume, oils or hair spray after putting on your jewellery.
- Do not shower with your jewellery on.
- Do not wear silver jewellery if you do any type of sport as sweat will cause the silver to tarnish and you may lose valuable items in the process.
- Do take items off regularly and clean them with a special jewellery cleaning cloth.
- Do keep jewellery in a jewellery box or individual, soft pouches, or air-tight protective bags (tarnish proof cloth). when storing remember that exposing it to air promotes tarnishing. Avoid storing your Sterling Silver Jewelry directly on wood surfaces, because wood usually contains acid that can mar the finish. Store your jewellery so that it isn't rubbing up against other articles.
