Preserving the Brilliance of Sterling Silver

Over time, sterling silver jewelry may develop a natural patina or darken due to natural oxidation. Combat this effortlessly by using a gentle silver polish or dip, readily available at most retail stores. A quick clean will restore its shine.

Cleaning

Maintain the brilliance of your jewelry by incorporating regular cleaning. After each wear, gently wipe down your pieces with a soft cloth to remove any traces of oils, lotions, or debris.

Protecting

Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh elements. Refrain from wearing them while swimming, bathing, or showering, as prolonged exposure to moisture can accelerate tarnishing. Likewise, minimize contact with excessive heat to preserve the integrity of delicate gemstones and metals.

Storing

Ensure the longevity of your jewellery by storing them in a cool, dry place.

Understanding Gold Vermeil

Gold vermeil refers to jewelry with a sterling silver base metal and a layer of gold plating (at least 2.5 microns thick). It's normal for the gold layer to fade over time due to natural wear and tear. This isn't a defect but rather a natural process. The lifespan of gold vermeil depends on how often you wear the pieces and the care you provide. Fortunately, reapplying the gold plating is a simple process, ensuring your jewelry maintains its golden allure.
