Silver jewellery dates back to several ancient civilizations, symbolizing protection, clarity, wealth and prosperity. Silver jewellery is known for its versatility, shine and reflectivity, making it a staple in many jewellery collections. 

At Get Crystals, we ensure that with proper care your silver pieces will remain radiant for years to come. Some essential tips and techniques for keeping your silver jewellery looking its best are –

1. Store Properly
Keeping silver jewellery tarnish free begins with storing it in the right place. 
– Keep silver jewellery in a cool, dry place. 
– Use anti-tarnish pouches or cloths.
– Store pieces separately to avoid scratches.

2. Wear Regularly
Simply wearing your silver jewellery goes a long way in keeping its lustre. Wearing your silver can prevent tarnish as the natural oils from your skin will keep silver looking shiny. 

3. Avoid Exposure
Keeping your silver jewellery away from chemicals like chlorine, perfumes, sanitizers, lotions, and cleaning products will help your silver stay shiny and lustrous. 
Always remove your silver jewellery before swimming or showering.

4. Clean Gently
Clean your silver jewellery as often as you can. Making sure to avoid the stone, fossil or meteorite that may be set in your silver and only cleaning the silver around it is important to remember!
Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to wipe your silver jewellery.
Avoid using paper towels or tissues which can scratch the surface. Instead, you can simply use a microfiber cloth.

5. Use Mild Cleaners
Do you have a pile of Silver Chains lying around, tarnishing? Wash your silver jewellery under warm water using a non-abrasive cellulose sponge and a mild dish soap with a neutral pH, such as citrus-free Dawn Dishwashing Liquid. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry immediately with a clean cotton towel. Avoid allowing it to air dry.

This method only works for plain Silver Jewellery, such as silver chains, as crystal jewellery requires special care.

6. Polish Carefully
A Silver polishing cloth makes a great difference for keeping your silver looking fresh and shiny. Rest assured this cleaning cloth will polish even the toughest brown spots and oxidization on your silver pieces.
