MOST OF OUR PRODUCTS ARE FABRICATED WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY ARGENTIUM SILVER- A SILVER ALLOY CONTAINING 92.5% FINE SILVER AND GERMANIUM. THE LACK OF COPPER IN THIS ALLOY CONTRIBUTES TO LESS TARNISHING AND A STRONGER FOUNDATION THAN YOUR TRADITIONAL STERLING SILVER.
GENERAL CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
HOW TO CARE FOR SILVER
THE WAY TO ENSURE DURABILITY AND A FRESH NEWNESS FOR A LONG TIME IN YOUR SILVER JEWELRY IS TO MAKE SURE TO WEAR THEM QUITE OFTEN, AS IT STARTS TO TARNISH QUICKLY WHEN IT’S FREQUENTLY EXPOSED TO OXYGEN AND SULPHUR AND THE OIL ON YOUR SKIN PREVENTS IT FROM TARNISHING. WHEN IT COMES TO STORING SILVER JEWELRY, MAKE SURE TO KEEP IT IN AIRTIGHT BAGS AND SLIP IN A PIECE OF CHALK IF POSSIBLE. IF YOU HAVE TO CLEAN SILVER, USE A JEWELRY POLISHING CLOTH INSTEAD OF A HARSH TOOL LIKE A TOOTHBRUSH SINCE SILVER IS QUITE SOFT.
HOW TO CARE FOR PLATED JEWELRY
PLATED JEWELRY HAS A THIN LAYER OF PRECIOUS METAL ON ANOTHER SOLID METAL WHICH CAN RUB OFF WITH CONSTANT CONTACT WITH YOUR SKIN. CONTINUAL EXPOSURE TO SWEAT, WATER, PERFUMES, AND CHEMICALS PRESENT IN THE TOILETRIES CAN TARNISH THE PLATED JEWELRY. TO ELONGATE THE LIFE OF YOUR PLATED JEWELRY, JUST FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE CARE INSTRUCTIONS,
ALWAYS TAKE YOUR PLATED JEWELRY OFF BEFORE SLEEPING TO AVOID CONSTANT FRICTION CREATED WHEN IT RUBS AGAINST YOUR SKIN.
KEEP YOUR JEWELRY DRY. IF YOUR PLATED JEWELRY GETS WET THEN IMMEDIATELY WIPE IT WITH A PAPER TOWEL.
AVOID LETTING YOUR JEWELRY COMING IN CONTACTS WITH CHEMICALS LIKE CHLORINE, NAIL POLISH REMOVER, SOAPS, OR PERFUMES AS IT CAN DESTROY THE METAL COATING.
TAKE YOUR JEWELRY OFF BEFORE ANY TOUGH PHYSICAL ACTIVITY TO KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR SWEAT.
STORE ALL YOUR JEWELRY IN INDIVIDUAL PLASTIC BAGS TO AVOID TARNISHING AND REMOVAL OF THE THIN PLATED LAYER DUE TO RUBBING AND SCRATCHING.
HOW TO CARE FOR OPALS
DUE TO ITS SOFT AND DELICATE PROPERTIES, OPAL REQUIRES GOOD AND ATTENTIVE CARE. MAKE SURE TO KEEP IT IN A DRY AND SAFE PLACE AS IT’S QUITE POROUS AND HIGH IN WATER CONTENT, WHICH ALSO MEANS YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR OPALS AWAY FROM ANY SOAP OR WATER. WEAR YOUR OPALS WHEN IT’S A NICE DAY OUTSIDE AS IT’S SENSITIVE TO EXTREME TEMPERATURES AND CLIMATE CHANGE. DEAL GENTLY WITH THEM WHEN MOVING AROUND OR PLACING DOWN SINCE THEY’RE EASILY BREAKABLE.
HOW TO CARE FOR PEARLS
PEARLS ARE VULNERABLE TO HARSH CHEMICALS LIKE HAIRSPRAYS, PERFUMES, AND THOSE FOUND IN COSMETICS, WHICH IS WHY IT’S BEST TO PUT YOUR PEARLS A FEW MINUTES AFTER ALL YOUR MAKEUP AND HAIR IS DONE, AND TAKE THEM OFF THE FIRST THING WHEN YOU GET BACK HOME. AVOID GOING TO SWIMMING POOLS AND IF THEY REQUIRE CLEANING, ONLY USE A SOFT MOIST CLOTH.
