How to Care for Your 925 Silver Jewellery
PTM Gems · 3 min read
925 silver tarnishes when exposed to air, moisture, and sulphur. Here's how to slow it down.
1. Store it right
Keep silver in an airtight pouch or zip-lock when not wearing. Add a small anti-tarnish strip for extra protection.
2. Wear it often
Yes, really. The natural oils on your skin help keep silver from tarnishing. Daily-wear pieces stay brighter.
3. Polish gently
Use a soft microfiber cloth (or a silver-polishing cloth) to buff away tarnish. Don't use toothpaste or harsh chemicals.
