UNDERSTANDING WHY YOUR SILVER TARNISHES
If you’re looking at a piece of jewelry that is darkened or appears dirty, then your silver has tarnished; but, there’s no need to neglect this piece or get rid of it!
Tarnish is simply the result of a chemical reaction with oxygen or sulfur particles in the air. With a few easy-to-follow tips, you can take care of your sterling silver jewelry and make it last for years to come!
- Wear it often: Your skin’s natural oils will help keep silver jewelry shiny.
- Remove during household chores: Substances with additional sulfur will accelerate corrosion and tarnish.
- Keep out of direct sunlight: Before you hit the beach or pool, be sure to remove your silver jewelry. Sunlight can cause silver to tarnish as well.
- Put your jewelry on last.
