It is normal for a silver piece to darken and lose its luster over time. Even stored for a long period of time, they will tarnish. Try:

• avoid contact of jewelry with corrosive agents (acids, bleaches, alkaline salts, colognes, etc.),
• do not bathe, swim or play sports with them on,
• store your silver jewel individually to avoid scratches, and in a preferably airtight place.

Despite the prevention you may have, silver oxidizes in contact with air and this causes its hue to tend to blacken or turn yellow.

How can I return my piece to its best version?

Very easy, follow these tips and you will see them dazzling again:

• Use lukewarm water with a little neutral pH soap and a 100% cotton cloth.
• For matte pieces, use baking soda with water and a brush.
• You can also safely clean it by soaking it for about 10 minutes in warm, soapy water, using a soft brush to remove dirt if necessary. Then place it on an absorbent cloth and carefully dry it.

Your jewelry speaks about you, tells your stories and reminds you of important moments or experiences... take care of them and they will take care of you 🙂
