Keep Your Piece Elegance Radiant: A Guide to Caring for Your 925 Silver Jewelry (with 18K gold plating/Rhodium plating)

How to take care of your piece

Your exquisite jewelry, crafted from 925 silver with 18K gold plating/Rhodium plating, deserves special care to maintain its beauty over time.

Here are some tips to ensure your pieces retain their lustrous shine:

1. Cleaning:

  • Gently wipe your jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear to remove dirt and oils.
  • For deeper cleaning, mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak your jewelry briefly, then gently scrub with a soft brush (a soft toothbrush works well) to remove any dirt or residue. Rinse with clean water and pat dry with a soft cloth.

2. Avoid Chemicals:

  • Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals, such as household cleaning agents, perfumes, and lotions. These can cause damage and tarnishing.

3. Storage:

  • Store your jewelry in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight. Use a velvet bag or jewelry box for added protection and to prevent scratches.

4. Polishing:

  • To restore the luster of your jewelry, use a silver polishing cloth. Gently buff the piece to remove tarnish and restore its shine.

5. Wear with Care:

  • Remove your jewelry when engaging in activities that may cause damage, such as gardening, sports, or housework.

6. Regular Inspections:

  • Periodically inspect your jewelry for any signs of wear, loose stones, or issues with the plating. If you notice any problems, contact a professional jeweler for assessment and repair.

By following these guidelines, you'll ensure that your 925 silver with 18K gold plating/Rhodium plating jewelry retains its elegance and beauty, ready to be worn and admired for years to come.
