How to Care for Your Sterling Silver Jewellery & Rose Gold Jewellery

Jewellery made out of sterling silver is the best bet to buy for both day to day purpose and special occasions. Silver is the most gullible metal and can be molded easily into a variety of designs without any trouble. This is the reason people often prefer sterling silver over gold which happens to be restricted to a few typical designs. People who love experimenting with the designs of their jewellery go for sterling silver instead of other metals.

Women will never have sufficient jewellery ever. In fact ‘sufficient’ word doesn’t exist in their dictionary when it comes to clothes, shoes and jewellery and why it should even exist when we have so much to buy from! Women are certainly spoilt by choices they are offered. Sterling silver jewellery can be bought from any major jewellery outlet in your vicinity. You can also buy gold pendants if you are fond of online shopping.

The only trouble with silver jewellery is that it tends to corrode soon due to the chemical reaction with atmospheric gases that initiate the oxidation process thereby forming a layer of black color over the silver jewellery. Many people who buy silver jewellery are unaware about this aspect of jewellery. They happen to realize this only when their silver jewellery corrodes upsetting them. As an outcome of this people end up discarding the corroded silver jewellery without knowing that it can be cleaned and restored to its glory with few simple cleaning tips.

The best thing is that this corrosion can be prevented by following a few precautionary measures when wearing your sterling silver jewellery.

Precautionary Tips:

1. Never do household work while having your silver jewellery on. Water aggravates oxidation process thereby increasing the chances of premature corrosion.
2. Store your silver jewellery separately from your other jewellery.
3. Never store silver jewellery in wooden containers as wood increases moisture levels.
4. After taking off your jewellery clean it with a soft cloth to get rid of dirt and any oil remnants that gather due to perspiration as the jewellery remains in contact with the skin.
5. Wear your jewellery at the end of your make up or make it the last thing to wear before stepping out of the house.
6. Use silver polish cream on regular intervals to clean your silver jewellery at home to continue to keep them shining for a longer period.
