Palkira 925 Silver Care Guide
Welcome to the Palkira Silver Care Section, where we share essential tips to help you protect and maintain the shine of your 925 sterling silver jewellery. With proper care, your silver will retain its beauty and elegance for years to come.
Clean Your 925 Silver Regularly
Sterling silver naturally develops a patina over time due to oxidation, but regular cleaning will keep it looking brilliant. Use a soft silver polishing cloth or a mild soap and warm water solution. Gently rub the surface to remove tarnish—avoid excessive force that may scratch the silver. Steer clear of harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or tissue paper that can damage the finish. After cleaning, dry thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth before storing.
Store Silver Properly
Proper storage is key to preventing tarnish and scratches. Keep your pieces in a dry, airtight pouch or anti-tarnish jewellery box. Store silver separately from other jewellery to prevent friction and scratches. Avoid humid environments—store away from bathrooms and direct sunlight.
Wear with Care
Everyday wear can expose silver to substances that dull its shine. Remove your jewellery before swimming, exercising, showering, or doing household chores. Avoid contact with rough surfaces or excessive force that could bend or scratch your jewellery.
Avoid Exposure to Tarnish-Causing Chemicals
Sterling silver is sensitive to certain substances that accelerate tarnishing. Keep silver away from perfume, hairspray, lotions, cosmetics, and cleaning products. If you apply personal care products, wait until they are fully absorbed before wearing your jewellery.
Regular Professional Cleaning
To maintain its brilliance, have your 925 silver professionally cleaned and inspected periodically. Jewellers can check for loose settings or wear and perform deep cleaning to restore shine.
Extra Care for Gemstone Silver Jewellery
If your 925 silver jewellery includes gemstones, note that each stone may require special care.
Follow specific gemstone care instructions to ensure both the silver and the stone remain in top condition.
💎 Palkira Tip: Wearing your silver jewellery often actually helps prevent tarnish, as the natural oils in your skin slow down oxidation.
