CARE OF SILVER JEWELLERY

General Jewellery Care Tips

• Always protect your jewellery from sharp blows, scratching, chemicals, sunlight and heat/cold. Ideally, store your silver jewellery in a sealed plastic bag in a soft lined box or pouch. Try to keep pieces apart, so that they don't rub together or tangle up.
• Wear jewellery for appropriate tasks, avoid wearing rings or loose bracelets when cleaning, gardening or performing sports activities.
• Don't let your jewellery come into contact with nail polish removers, perfume and hairspray.
• Clean your silver jewellery regularly, use a proprietory silver cleaning product such as wadding or a special silver cleaning cloth (always read the manufacturers instructions). Clean the silver carefully and avoid polishing the other beads on your jewellery, such as crystals with an AB finish, as the cloth can remove that finish.
• When washing your hands (away from home) - don't place your rings on the wash basin - remove them and place them onto your necklace or place in a pouch in your handbag/purse.
• Never go swimming in your jewellery, chlorine in swimming pools can cause damage.
