925 sterling silver:
sterling silver is made from 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. it is the copper within the metal that tarnishes in silver. this can be caused by exposure to harsh chemicals, cosmetics, perspiration, swimming in pools, the ocean, or froms oils from the skin.
clean with warm soapy water or a gentle polish with the polishing cloth included in your order. store your jewellery in a clean, dry environment.
14k gold-plated:
the tarnish resistant components are made using a jewellers quality brass base (making it nickel and lead free for sensitive skin). it is then plated with genuine 14k gold and protected with special tarnish resistant coating that creates a barrier to the elements and protects your plating for longer.
please note that although our tarnish resistant range is durable, it is still a plated product and care should be taken when around harsh chemicals.
avoid exposure to chlorine, salt water, sunscreen and perfume etc as this will breakdown the protective coating and plating over time.
it is recommended to remove your items when swimming, showering, or bathing.
if dirty please clean your items in warm soapy water, rinse, and gently wipe dry.
store your jewellery or jewellery components in a clean, dry environment.
