Silver

Silver jewellery requires more frequent care to account for its natural tarnishing process. Completely preventing tarnish from forming is not really possible, but there are a few ways you can significantly delay it's formation. The best way is to wear your silver jewelry frequently. The oils in your skin will help the silver from oxidising every time you wear it. However creams, lotions, perfumes, and profuse sweating can accelerate the tarnishing process. 

Store silver jewellery in a dry, cool place, in your original packaging, an air tight container, or a specialty jewellery pouch. Silver jewellery should be cleaned when you notice it becoming dull and to remove any discolouration. To clean silver jewellery, we recommend dipping your pieces in a Silver Clean Bath or polishing with a high-quality cloth. Although it can also easily be cleaned with dish soap, or an appropriate cleaning solution.

Gold

Gold is a strong, durable material that requires relatively low maintenance so will maintain its original appearance through generations if cared for properly. Although  it does require cleaning to maintain its shine. Try scrubbing lightly with a toothbrush and warm water.

It is very normal for gold jewellery to tarnish and this can occur due to your skin’s acidity, particular creams/lotions, storage conditions or contact with water. Gold jewellery can easily be cleaned with an appropriate cleaning solution. We recommend the use of a jewellery polishing cloth.

Store gold jewellery in an airtight container if possible. Otherwise a dry, cool place, in your original packaging or a jewellery pouch.
