Sterling Silver / Silver 925 

Sterling silver is great metal for jewellery. It is long wearing and easy to clean. While contact with the air will cause the surface of your silver to darken (called tarnish), it is easily cleaned up with soft polishing cloth, or baking soda powder. 

You can wear your jewellery in the shower or to bed, but still remove it during activities where it will have contact with chemicals such as swimming or cleaning. 

If your silver jewellery is dirty rather than tarnished, soak it in a bowl of warn water with few drops of mild dish soap. After about 15 minutes, gently brush off the loosened dirt with a soft bristled toothbrush. Make sure to dry the piece completely before storing.
