Caring for 925 Sterling Silver
925 sterling silver is a precious metal known for its timeless elegance and durability. Over time, sterling silver may naturally develop a slight tarnish due to exposure to air, moisture, and everyday elements.
To Keep Your Sterling Silver Looking Its Best:
✓ Store in a dry, airtight jewelry pouch or box when not in use.
✓ Remove before swimming, showering, or exercising.
✓ Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and household chemicals.
✓ Gently polish with a soft jewelry cloth to restore shine.
✓ Wear your silver jewelry regularly—natural skin oils can help reduce tarnishing.
Tarnishing Is Natural
Tarnish is a normal reaction of sterling silver to oxygen and sulfur in the environment. It does not affect the quality of your jewelry and can easily be removed with proper cleaning.
Caring for 18K Gold Vermeil
Gold vermeil features a thick layer of genuine 18K gold over a sterling silver base, offering the luxurious appearance of solid gold at a more accessible price.
To Preserve Your Gold Vermeil Finish:
✓ Put jewelry on after applying makeup, perfume, sunscreen, or skincare products.
✓ Remove before bathing, swimming, exercising, or sleeping.
✓ Avoid direct contact with chemicals, cleaning products, and chlorinated water.
✓ Store separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratches.
✓ Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.
Understanding Gold Vermeil
Gold vermeil is designed for everyday elegance, but like all gold-plated jewelry, the gold layer may gradually soften over time depending on wear habits and exposure. Proper care can significantly extend its lifespan and beauty.
