Jewellery Care 101: How to Clean and Maintain Your Jewellery
Jewellery is an essential part of our lives, especially at Apiliotis Jewellery HQ!
Not only do they add a touch of elegance and sophistication to our outfits, but they are also often tied to special memories and moments in our lives. It’s important to keep your jewellery looking its best, and proper care and maintenance is the key to achieving this.
In this post, we’ll provide you with some easy tips on how to clean and maintain your silver jewellery.
- Know your jewellery
Before you start cleaning your jewellery, it’s important to know what type of silver you have. Some pieces may be made from sterling silver, while others may be plated. Understanding the material will help you determine the best method for cleaning and maintaining your jewellery.
- Clean your jewellery regularly
It’s essential to clean your silver jewellery regularly to prevent tarnishing and keep it looking bright and shiny. You can use a soft cloth to gently wipe away any dirt or debris on your jewellery. For a deeper clean, you can use a silver cleaning solution or a homemade solution of baking soda and water.
- Store your jewellery properly
Proper storage is key to maintaining the condition of your jewellery. Avoid storing your silver jewellery in areas with high humidity or exposure to sunlight, as this can lead to tarnishing. Instead, keep your jewellery in a dry, cool place, such as a jewellery box or a fabric-lined case.
- Avoid exposure to chemicals
Chemicals such as perfumes, hairspray, and cleaning products can damage the surface of your jewellery. It’s important to avoid exposure to these substances as much as possible. If you need to use these products, it’s best to apply them before putting on your jewellery.
- Seek professional help
