🪙 Tips to Maintain Your Silver Jewelry: Shine That Lasts Forever
Silver jewelry adds elegance and charm to every look — but like all precious things, it needs a little care to stay beautiful. Whether it’s your everyday rings or a stunning statement necklace, proper maintenance can keep your 925 silver sparkling for years. Here are the best tips to help you protect and preserve your silver jewelry
1. Store it Properly  Â
Silver tarnishes when exposed to air and moisture. Store your pieces in an airtight container or zip-lock bag with anti-tarnish strips. Use soft pouches or cloth-lined boxes to prevent scratching.

2. Keep Away from Chemicals
Perfume, hairspray, lotion, and even sweat can accelerate tarnishing. Always wear your silver jewelry last while getting ready and remove it before swimming or bathing.

3. Clean it Regularly
Use a soft polishing cloth made for silver to gently clean your pieces after each wear. For deeper cleaning, mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water, soak for a few minutes, and gently scrub with a soft toothbrush.
