Sterling Silver, also known as 925 silver, is made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper, to make it strong enough for jewelry. Pure silver is too soft for everyday wear, making Sterling Silver the highest quality silver used in jewelry.

Although sterling silver is durable, it naturally tarnishes over time as the other metals react with air. Factors like perfumes, lotions, hair products, hand gels, and sweat can accelerate tarnishing. The rate of oxidation can also vary depending on the PH of your skin.

If you prefer jewelry that does not oxidize, stainless steel is a low-maintenance alternative.

How to prevent tarnish

Taking a few simple precautions will help keep your sterling silver pieces looking their best:

Showering & Water Exposure

• Avoid wearing your jewelry in the shower. If you do, dry it immediately afterwards.

• Pure water alone does not harm silver, but most tap water contains chemicals that can cause dulling or tarnish.

Pools, Hot Tubs & Hot Springs

• Pool & hot tub: Chlorine is harsh and accelerates tarnish. Rinse your jewelry thoroughly after exposure.

• Hot springs: Sulfur in natural hot springs can damage silver. Avoid exposure unless you want an oxidized look.

Perfumes, Lotions & Chemicals

• Apply perfumes, lotions, and creams before putting on your jewelry and let them dry.

• Avoid contact with strong chemicals, including cleaning products.
  

Cleaning & Storage Tips

• Clean your jewelry daily or at least weekly, especially if you sweat.

• Use purified water and a soft cloth for cleaning. Mild soap can be used if needed.

• Store your jewelry in a dark, dry, and cool place, separate from other pieces to prevent scratches.

• For chains, fasten adjustor chains on the last hole before storing.

• Flat surfaces tend to oxidize slower than uneven surfaces.
  

Care for Adjustable Jewelry

Adjustable silver pieces are soft by nature. Open and close them gently and avoid frequent adjustments, as repeated bending can cause wear or breakage.

Good to know

• Tarnish is normal – Sterling Silver naturally reacts with air and skin.

• Low maintenance – Regular gentle cleaning restores shine.

• Safe with water – Tap water may contain chemicals, purified water is safest.

• Avoid harsh chemicals – Perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products can accelerate tarnish.

• Adjustable jewelry – Handle gently to avoid cracks or breakage.
