Silver jewellery is timeless, elegant, and versatile—but it needs a little care to keep its natural shine. At Tavshan, we craft every piece with 925 sterling silver, which is known for its beauty and durability. With the right care, your silver jewellery can last a lifetime and look as stunning as the day you bought it.
In this blog, we’ll share simple yet effective tips on how to care for sterling silver jewellery and protect it from tarnish.
Why Does 925 Sterling Silver Tarnish?
Sterling silver (92.5% pure silver mixed with 7.5% copper) reacts with air, moisture, and chemicals, which can cause a blackish layer called tarnish. Don’t worry—this is completely natural and can be cleaned easily.
7 Easy Tips to Care for Your Silver Jewellery
1. Store It Properly
Keep your silver jewellery in airtight pouches or zip-lock bags.
Use anti-tarnish cloth or silica gel packets to absorb moisture.
Avoid storing multiple pieces together to prevent scratches.
2. Avoid Contact with Harsh Chemicals
Remove jewellery before swimming, cleaning, or using perfumes, lotions, and hair sprays.
Chemicals in cosmetics and chlorine water can cause silver to lose its shine.
3. Wear It Often
Surprisingly, wearing silver jewellery regularly can reduce tarnish because the natural oils from your skin help keep it polished.
4. Clean with a Soft Cloth
Use a microfiber or soft polishing cloth to wipe your jewellery after every wear.
Avoid using tissue paper or rough cloth, as it may scratch the surface.
5. DIY Cleaning at Home
You can clean your silver at home with natural methods:
Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water, soak for 10 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush.
For stubborn tarnish, create a paste with baking soda and water, gently rub, and rinse well.
6. Professional Cleaning
If your jewellery is heavily tarnished, consider professional polishing to restore its original shine.
7. Use Silver Jewellery Last When Dressing Up
Always wear your silver jewellery after applying makeup, perfume, or hairspray, to minimize chemical exposure.
