To preserve the beauty of your sterling silver jewelry, follow these steps: * Exposure to the air causes silver to tarnish, so keep your sterling silver jewelry in a bag made from tarnish-proof cloth, or in airtight container. * Avoid allowing your sterling silver jewelry to have prolonged contact with wood, as some woods contain acids that can dull the finish. * Alcohol, acetone, bleach, ammonia, and turpentine can damage sterling silver jewelry, so be sure to remove your rings and other sterling silver jewelry before using these products. * Regularly wipe down your sterling silver jewelry with a 100% cotton cloth, using a lengthwise, rather than circular motion. * Remove light tarnish with a silver cloth, available at mass merchandisers and from jewelers. * To remove heavy tarnish, use a liquid or paste silver polish and rinse with warm water. Make sure to dry it thoroughly before storing it in its cloth or airtight bag. |
