Understanding Sterling Silver

Sterling silver is made from 92.5% pure silver blended with 7.5% other metals to give it strength and durability.
Because silver is naturally reactive, it can tarnish when exposed to air, moisture, skin products, and household chemicals.
With proper care, tarnish is easy to prevent and even easier to remove.

RockaBELLA’s Top Jewellery Care Tips

1. Store Your Jewellery Properly

Keep your pieces in a cool, dry place.

Store them in an airtight container or zip-seal bag to reduce exposure to air and moisture.

Keep each item separate to avoid scratches.

 

---

2. Avoid Exposure to Chemicals

Everyday products can react with silver, including:

Perfume and body sprays

Lotions and creams

Hairspray

Pool water and cleaning agents


Tip: Put your jewellery on last when getting ready, and remove it before swimming, cleaning, or exercising.

3. Clean Your Jewellery Regularly

Wash gently with mild soap and warm water.

Dry completely before storing.

Use a soft polishing cloth to maintain shine.

Never use abrasive materials or harsh cleaners — they can scratch your silver.

4. Polish When Needed

If your jewellery becomes tarnished, polish it using:

A silver polishing cloth

A gentle sterling-silver cleaner


Be soft and patient while polishing to protect delicate details and stones.

5. Wear Your Jewellery Often

Believe it or not — wearing your sterling silver actually helps keep it bright!
The natural oils on your skin slow down tarnish.
Just remember to clean your pieces regularly to remove any buildup of creams, lotions, or sweat.

6. Store Separately from Other Metals

To prevent scratches or chemical reactions, store your sterling silver away from stainless steel, costume jewellery, and plated metals.
