Caring for your Silver

 

• Silver will tarnish naturally over time with the oxygen in the air and will react to exposure to beauty products such as perfumes, certain cleaning products and chlorine from swimming pools.

• Silver is a durable material that will last a lifetime and more if cared for with the right surface treatments.

 

Polished Silver

​

• Polished work can be cleaned with a silver cloth or silver polish and a soft cloth. Please note that mirror polished pieces need to be cleaned with the greatest care ensuring the cloth is clean and particle free.

 

Satin and Matt Surfaces

 

• You should avoid using polishing cloths and creams, as this will increase the shine on the surface. 

• The best method for cleaning is silver dip or alternatively you can use warm soapy water and a soft toothbrush.
