Preserving the Beauty of Your Sterling Silver

Sterling silver is a precise metal. Each piece is created with intention. True luxury is not only in the making, but in the keeping.

Sterling silver naturally interacts with elements in the air — particularly moisture — which may cause a soft darkening over time known as tarnish.

This is not a flaw. It is the authentic character of genuine silver.

With minimal care, its brilliance is easily restored.

Daily Wear & Habits

To preserve the finish and integrity of your piece:

• Apply perfume, lotion, and hair products before putting on jewelry
• Remove prior to swimming or exposure to chlorine
• Avoid prolonged contact with chemicals or household cleaners
• Gently wipe with a soft cloth after wear

Wearing your silver regularly can actually help maintain its shine, as natural skin oils slow oxidation. 

Proper Storage

When not being worn, store your jewelry in a cool, dry environment.

• Keep pieces in an airtight pouch or lined jewelry box
• Store separately to prevent scratching
• Avoid humid areas such as bathrooms

Reduced air exposure significantly slows tarnishing.

Restoring Brilliance

For light tarnish:
Use a professional sterling silver polishing cloth and gently buff the surface.

For more pronounced oxidation:
Use a high-quality silver cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Avoid abrasive materials, toothpaste, or baking soda, as these can scratch the metal and compromise the finish.

If your piece features natural stones or intentional patina, clean with care to preserve design details.
