Silver Jewelry Care

In the world of jewellery, quality is never a detail Our Silvex Italy 925 silver jewellery is high quality, Made in Italy and designed to last over time. However, even silver jewellery requires attention to preserve its splendor. That’s why we created this guide, so we can give useful tips to keep the unique splendor of 925 silver jewellery intact.

1. Cleaning and maintenance

Regular cleaning is key to preserving the beauty of your silver jewellery, especially when it comes to quality products like ours. Although silver is known for its durability, due to a natural reaction with chemicals in the atmosphere, heat, and skin oils, silver can tarnish and blacken. Here are some tips:

• To keep silver shiny without scratching it, just use a soft microfibre cloth to remove dust, fingerprints and tarnish;
• For a deep cleaning, and with the exceptions mentioned further below, we suggest the use of specific professional detergents that respect the quality of the metal, avoiding damage or alterations.

2. Avoid external factors

Our silver jewelry is designed to last, but some external factors can accelerate the metal’s alteration. It is essential to avoid

• Sostanze chimiche aggressive, come profumi, lozioni, detergenti e cloro, che sono nemici dell’argento. • Harsh chemicals, such as perfumes, lotions, detergents and chlorine, which are enemies of silver. They damage the shine of the jewel and can also damage any synthetic stones or pearls;
• • Accumulation of dirt and dust can dull the surface. Although silver is not easily damaged, regular cleaning is recommended;

3. Storage

Proper storage is essential to prevent silver jewellery from losing its shine and quality over time:

• Conserva ogni pezzo separato da altri oggetti per evitare danni o graffi. • Store each piece separately from other items to avoid damage or scratches. A soft box, dedicated case or breathable fabric bag is ideal;
• • Store your jewellery in a dry, well-ventilated place to maintain its properties. Humidity and exposure to extreme temperatures are harmful to silver.

4. Daily use

Even when wearing jewellery, it is important that it is treated with care to prolong its life:

• • Remove them before physical activities, to avoid damage from impacts or exposure to harmful substances;
• Evitare l’esposizione all’acqua, in quanto l’acqua è una sostanza che può accelerare l’ossidazione dei gioielli in argento. • Avoid exposure to water, as water is a substance that can accelerate the oxidation of silver jewellery. Although silver jewellery is resistant, it is a good idea to remove it before showering or swimming.

Caring for silver jewellery is essential not only to maintain its visual appeal, but also to protect the investment it represents. Our jewels, made of high-quality silver, are designed to withstand time and daily use. With this guide we want to offer the right information on how to care for silver jewellery, in order to maintain its value and beauty in the long term.

Our advice is valid for most silver jewels, but some pieces require special care such as pieces with a satin texture. For satin or gold-plated jewellery with a molecular protection treatment, do not use polishing cloths, brushes or specific professional and therefore abrasive detergents, as they could damage the opaque finish and so create shiny areas and remove the treatment on the gold plating.
