As with all metals, special care must be taken to ensure they do not scratch or tarnish. Below is a general guidline:

1. Store jewelry in a clean, dry place away from natural sunlight, humidity (bathroom), and heat.

2. Each piece should be stored individually to avoid scratching, in an air-tight zip lock if possible to avoid air contact.

3. Remove jewelry before showering, going to bed, or participating in physical activity especially swimming. Remove rings before washing your hands every time.

4. Avoid exposure to sweat and harsh chemicals such as perfumes, cleaning agents, chlorine, and salt water.

5. Use silver-polishing cloth to clean the pieces if the jewelry has become dull.

Oxidation disappears with time. This is considered normal wear and tear and is not a defect.
