Did you know that sterling silver is more durable than pure silver?
This is because sterling silver is made up of a combination of pure silver and 7.5% of other metals to make it more durable. This makes it great for everyday wear, but it can also cause tarnish.

The Silver Lining:
Even when tarnish occurs, it's easily removed by friction. This means loving it and wearing it is the best way to maintain its beauty.
Here are some tips for keeping it shiny:

Wear it! 
Regular handling keeps the surface shiny and prevents tarnish (great news for people who play with their jewellery)!

Polish it 
using a jewellery polishing cloth, then wash the jewellery. Never wash the cloth. 

Clean it 
with soap and water. I recommend Dawn dishsoap.

Dry it 
before storing it in a jewellery box or container.

I hope you love your sterling silver jewellery, so please reach out if you have any questions or concerns with your order!
