As with most precious metals, silver tarnishes. Tarnishing is less likely to happen when the jewellery is worn regularly, but if tarnishing occurs simply polish with a soft polishing cloth. You can also clean silver with mild soap and water. If severely tarnished, we can professionally clean items for you.
 
Silver is relatively soft, so store items separately to avoid scratching.
 
Products such as lotions, cosmetics, hair products and perfume accelerate tarnishing, so remove silver jewellery when applying.
 
Also,  avoid contact with household chemicals and chlorinated water as these cause corrosion and tarnishing. If you accidentally expose the jewellery to such chemicals then we can advice on what to do, just drop by our shop or call us on 01580 763357.
