Sterling silver is naturally prone to tarnishing over time due to contact to air, moisture, and some chemicals, despite its intrinsic brilliance. But do not worry; by understanding tarnish and learning how to avoid it, you can help keep your prized silver items looking beautiful for many years to come.

What is 925 Sterling Silver?

Prior to exploring the various types of tarnish, let us first examine what makes 925 sterling silver unique. Sterling silver is an alloy formed by mixing 92.5% pure silver with 7.5% of another metal, usually copper, as opposed to pure silver, which is too delicate for practical use in jewellery . This alloying process makes the silver stronger and more robust while maintaining its natural beauty, creating a material that is both sophisticated and hardy.

Understanding Tarnish: A Natural Process

Tarnish, often characterized by a dull, discolored appearance on the surface of silver, is a natural process that occurs due to the metal's reaction with sulfur-containing substances in the air. While tarnish may seem inevitable, there are steps you can take to minimize its impact and keep your silver jewellery looking radiant for longer.

Preserving the Beauty of Your Silver Jewellery

To preserve the pristine beauty of your sterling silver jewellery and minimize tarnish, consider the following tips:

1. Store your silver jewellery in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Consider using anti-tarnish storage solutions such as tarnish-resistant pouches or cloth.

2. Avoid exposing your silver jewellery to harsh chemicals such as perfumes, cosmetics, and household cleaners, as they can accelerate tarnishing.

3. Regularly clean your silver jewellery with a soft cloth or polishing cloth to remove any dirt, oils, or residues that may contribute to tarnish buildup.

4. Consider using a mild silver polish or cleaning solution specifically formulated for sterling silver to gently remove tarnish and restore the shine to your jewellery.

5. Embrace the beauty of patina: While tarnish may be inevitable, it can also add character and depth to your silver jewellery, creating a unique patina that tells the story of its journey.
