Jewelry Care

• When you are not wearing your jewelry keep it in a dry, direct sunlight free area.

• Chain necklaces are less likely to get tangled if you store them hanging up or in a bag with the clasp hanging out of the top.
  

Caring for your oxidized silver pieces

Oxidized silver is created by intentionally darkening a piece of silver through a chemical process. The darkened patina is basically a sped up version of the natural tarnishing process.

• If cleaning is necessary, gently rub the piece with a jewelry cleaning cloth or use mild soap and warm water (with as little rubbing as possible).

• Minimize contact with hairspray, sunscreen, perfumes, etc.  This may have an effect on the oxidation.

• Never cleaned your oxidized silver with jewelry cleaning dips or aggressive polishing because it will remove the oxidation. 

• Your piece may eventually lose some or all of its oxidation.  If you would like your piece re-oxidized you may send it to us and we would be happy to oxidize it for you.
