Jewellery Care

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I avoid when wearing sterling silver?

Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, lotions, bleach, and other harsh chemicals. Always put your jewellery on last when getting ready and take it off first when you get home.

What does S925 mean?

S925 refers to 925 sterling silver — meaning the piece is made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper) for added strength and durability. It's the highest quality standard for sterling silver jewellery.

Will my S925 silver jewellery tarnish?

Sterling silver can tarnish over time due to exposure to air, moisture, and chemicals — this is completely normal. Regular wear and gentle cleaning will help keep your pieces bright and shiny.

How do I clean my S925 sterling silver jewellery?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently buff your pieces after wearing. For a deeper clean, mix a small amount of mild dish soap with warm water, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush, rinse thoroughly, and pat dry completely before storing.

Can I wear my sterling silver jewellery in the shower or swimming?

We recommend removing your S925 jewellery before showering, swimming, or entering hot tubs. Chlorine, saltwater, and prolonged moisture can accelerate tarnishing and affect the finish.

How should I store my sterling silver jewellery?

Store your pieces in an airtight bag or a lined jewellery box away from sunlight and humidity. Keeping pieces separate prevents scratching and reduces exposure to air, which slows tarnishing.

Can I wear my sterling silver jewellery every day?

Yes! S925 sterling silver is durable enough for everyday wear. In fact, regular wearing can help keep pieces polished naturally. Just remember to remove them before swimming, exercising, or applying beauty products.
