Thank you for choosing Silvery. You’re supporting our beloved family-owned venture, where we and the team take each order to heart.
Sometimes things don’t go as planned, but please know that we’ll always do our utmost to ensure your items are perfect for YOU! If you are not entirely happy with your jewellery item or have any queries, please let us offer guidance on the following topics:
By following these tips, you can keep your sterling silver jewellery looking beautiful and well-maintained for years to come:
- Avoid exposure to chemicals: Remove your sterling silver jewellery before applying lotions, perfumes, or hairsprays, as these can contain chemicals that may tarnish or damage the silver.
- Clean regularly: Clean your silver jewellery regularly to remove oils, dirt, and tarnish.
- Avoid chemical exposure: Remove your silver jewellery before engaging in activities that could expose it to water or harsh chemicals, such as swimming, bathing, or doing household chores. Prolonged exposure to water can cause tarnishing.
- Avoid abrasive materials: When cleaning or polishing, use soft materials like microfiber cloths or special silver cleaning cloths. Avoid abrasive materials that can scratch the surface of the silver.
- Regularly Wear and Rotate: The oils in your skin can help prevent tarnishing. Wear your sterling silver jewellery regularly and consider rotating pieces to ensure they all receive some exposure to natural oils.
Storing your sterling silver jewellery:
- Use Anti-Tarnish Storage Options: Store your sterling silver jewellery in anti-tarnish pouches or bags. These specially treated pouches help prevent tarnish by reducing the exposure to air and moisture.
- Keep it Dry: Moisture can accelerate tarnishing. Store your jewellery in a cool, dry place away from humidity, such as a jewellery box or a drawer. Consider placing silica gel packets in the storage area to absorb any excess moisture.
- Avoid Sunlight: Store your jewellery in a dark place to minimize exposure to light. Direct sunlight can cause silver to tarnish more quickly.
- Separate Pieces: Store each piece of silver jewellery separately to prevent scratching and tangling. This is particularly important for pieces with gemstones or intricate designs.
- Use Soft Lining: Line your jewellery box or storage container with a soft, non-abrasive material like velvet or felt to provide a gentle cushion for your silver pieces.
- Avoid Wood: While wooden jewellery boxes can be aesthetically pleasing, they may contain acids that can accelerate tarnishing. If you use a wooden box, make sure it is lined with a tarnish-resistant material.
