It’s also vital to clean the germs underneath the jewelry. Hence, it is advised to remove your jewelry before washing your hands or bathing.
- In order to keep the jewelry germ-free, you are advised to clean them weekly with warm water to preserve the gleam.
- Some softer stones like Pearl, Emerald, Moonstone, etc., should never be cleaned using water. It is advised to clean them dry with the help of a soft cloth.
- Silver jewelry too has a soft gloss; hence may easily get tarnished if ignored for a considerable time. Usually, you can use a lemon juice and water blend to clean up such jewelry.
- Always keep away delicate jewelry from damp places. Always use dry gentle cloth for their cleaning
- If possible, always use airtight pouches/boxes to store your jewelry to prevent the oxidation process that may trigger.
- Be extra careful while spraying any perfumes or any other such products. Prevent any direct contact between them.
- Over time, the surface of any jewelry may get subjected to scratching; hence they need extra care while handling.
Bonus Tip
You must consider regularly replating your 925 silver jewelry to keep its shine forever.
925 Sterling silver is a metal alloy with a total percentage split up of 92.5% silver (Ag) and 7.5% copper (Cu). This indicates an assurity of 92.5% silver purity. The copper makes the silver harder and a bit more durable without compromising the shine & color.
But copper being a metal, tends to tarnish, turning into a black/dark brownish color. However, this tarnish won’t harm the sterling silver lying beneath. Hence, it’s better to replate the product once in a while to keep its gloss forever.
