Jewelry Care

Storing your silver jewelry is an important task. It can be kept in a separate compartment or in a cloth pouch to be stored in the jewelry box. This helps in protecting the jewelry pieces from scratching.

Caring for jewelry is not only about storing. It is that you must apply perfume or hairspray on your body and then add the jewelry. Do not expose your jewelry to chlorinated water or household chemicals. These chemicals overtime damage the silver and the buildup of tarnish on the sterling silver jewelry should be removed easily using the fine solutions of silver polish. This can be found at hardware or grocery stores and at most jewelry shops. Keep handy a cleaning cloth, before wearing something in silver and lightly rub it with the cloth to eliminate tarnish.

Rhodium finished pieces requires wiping with a soft cotton cloth. Silver polishes are not required to clean these pieces. If there are deep scratches consult your jeweler for advice and it may require professional buffing so that the scratches are alleviated.

When I was looking for new jewelry to give to my brother for his birthday, I went to a very huge store and bought diamond chains for men from this store. I want to say that I really liked this store, because there is a great range of goods and jewelry at the highest quality level and the tsunamis suited me. In addition, this is the only store with such exquisite jewelry.
