PROPER .925 STERLING SILVER JEWELRY CARE:
To ensure your .925 sterling silver jewelry retains its beauty and lasts a lifetime, follow these simple care guidelines. Clean your pieces regularly using a soft, lint-free cloth to remove any dirt or oils that may accumulate. Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh chemicals, such as chlorine or bleach, as they can damage the silver. When not in use, store your items in a dry, airtight container or the included soft pouch to prevent tarnishing. If your jewelry does tarnish, use the included silver polishing cloth or a mild silver cleaner to restore its shine. By taking these precautions, you can enjoy your sterling silver pieces for years to come!
PROPER BRONZE JEWELRY CARE:
To keep your bronze jewelry looking its best, it’s important to follow a few simple care tips. Bronze can develop a natural patina over time, which many find appealing; however, if you prefer to maintain its original luster, clean your pieces regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and oils. Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh chemicals, including perfumes and cleaning products, as they can cause discoloration. When not in use, store your bronze pieces in a cool, dry place, ideally in an airtight container to minimize oxidation. If your jewelry does tarnish, gently polish it with a bronze cleaner or a mixture of lemon juice and baking soda, then rinse thoroughly and dry. With proper care, your bronze jewelry will remain a cherished part of your collection for years to come!
PROPER GOLD FILLED JEWELRY CARE:
To keep your gold-filled jewelry looking radiant and vibrant, follow these simple care instructions. Gold-filled pieces have a thicker layer of gold than gold-plated items, making them more durable, but they still require gentle care. Clean your jewelry regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dirt or oils. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, including perfumes, lotions, and cleaning products, as they can tarnish the gold layer. When not wearing your jewelry, store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a soft pouch or an airtight container to prevent scratching and oxidation. If needed, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush to clean more intricate designs, rinsing thoroughly and drying immediately. With proper care, your gold-filled jewelry will maintain its beauty for years to come!
INCLUDED FREE CLEANING CLOTH USE:
The included cleaning cloth is for silver and bronze jewelry use only! Do not use on eyeglasses, sunglasses or on gold filled jewelry. This specialized cleaning cloth contains silver polishing compounds that polishes your tarnished silver jewelry to a like new shine. If you find your jewelry tarnishing or taking on a dull finish, simply wipe it down in small circular motions with the included cleaning cloth and within minutes it will be as good as new. Placing your jewelry back in the included box will also keep dust and debris off, keeping the time between cleaning longer.
