Sterling silver is a precious metal that develops character over time. With proper care, your pieces will maintain their lustrous beauty for generations. Follow these guidelines to preserve the brilliance and integrity of your investment-quality jewelry.

• Remove your sterling silver jewelry before applying lotions, perfumes, hairspray, or cosmetics. These products contain chemicals that can cause tarnishing and discoloration.
• Take off jewelry before swimming in chlorinated pools or soaking in hot tubs, as chlorine can damage sterling silver.
• Remove pieces before showering, bathing, or exercising to prevent exposure to moisture and sweat.

• Store each piece individually in anti-tarnish pouches or airtight plastic bags to minimize exposure to air and moisture.
• Keep jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.
• Consider using anti-tarnish strips in your jewelry box for added protection.
• Never store sterling silver in the bathroom where humidity levels are high.

• For regular maintenance, gently polish with a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for silver.
• For deeper cleaning, use warm (not hot) water mixed with a few drops of mild, phosphate-free dish soap.
• Gently clean with a soft brush, rinse thoroughly under lukewarm water, and dry completely with a soft cloth.
• Avoid paper towels or tissues as they can scratch the silver surface.
• Never use harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive cleaners.
