Care for Every Finish

Clean with a soft silver polishing cloth.
For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and lukewarm water.
Dry completely with a soft cloth.
Never use abrasive scrubbers or toothpaste.
Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals.

Remove before showering, sleeping or exercising.

A Natural Characteristic of Silver

Tarnishing Is Normal

Silver is a precious metal that naturally tarnishes with time due to exposure to air. Tarnishing is completely normal and is not a manufacturing defect. With proper care and occasional cleaning, your jewellery will continue to shine beautifully for years.
