The Complete 925 Silver Jewellery Care Guide

Good silver jewellery can last a lifetime — but only if you look after it. The good news is that caring for 925 sterling silver takes just a few simple habits. Here is everything you need to know.

Store it right

Air and moisture are silver's biggest enemies. Store each piece in a zip-lock pouch or a lined box with separate sections so pieces do not scratch each other. During humid months and the monsoon, add a silica gel packet to absorb moisture.

Wear it last, remove it first

Put your jewellery on after perfume, lotion and makeup, since these can dull the finish. Take it off before swimming, showering, workouts and housework to avoid chemicals and friction.

Clean it gently

For everyday shine, wipe your silver with a soft, dry cloth after wear. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive scrubbing.

Rotate your pieces

Interestingly, silver that is worn regularly tarnishes less than silver left sitting in a box, because gentle wear keeps the surface active. So wear your favourites often.

When shine fades

Even with care, a protective finish gently wears over time. A light polish or a professional clean brings the sparkle right back.
