Sterling silver is an alloy consisting of metals that react with chemicals found in the air and produce tarnish over time. Factors such as high moisture levels, exposure to sunlight, contact with perfume, skin and hair products, and contaminants like saltwater can accelerate this reaction and even harm stones, particularly pearls.

To mitigate this, always apply products before putting on jewelry and wait a few minutes for them to be absorbed by the skin. Please refrain from spraying perfume or hairspray directly onto your jewelry and remove it when engaging in physical activities or sports. In case of tarnishing, it can be easily removed by polishing with a mild abrasive or soaking in an anti-tarnish solution.

To protect your sterling silver and pearl investments, you can store them in a cool, dry place.
