STERLING SILVER:
Our Silver range is manufactured by hand using genuine 925 Sterling Silver.
All plated jewellery items are 925 Sterling Silver as well.
Since pure silver is a soft metal, it is combined with other metals to produce a stronger, more durable product to make it wearable.
It is perfectly natural for 925 Sterling Silver to oxidise over time, but the process can easily be reversed with the right polishing cloth and jewellery cleaning solution to make your silver shine.
Genuine Silver will do this over time (think back to your Gran’s luxury Silver cutlery it had to be polished and maintained weekly).
There are various reasons Silver will tarnish quicker , some being within your control and others that are out of your control.
Some factors that are within your control are keeping jewellery away from perfume, sulphur, skin creams, Sterling Silver and Plated Jewellery should be stored away from natural sunlight and moisture in an airtight container or a plastic zip lock bag made of Mylar or polyethylene.

hairspray, chlorine and not bathing or swimming with your silver items.
Factors that are beyond your control includes humidity, salty air ,and acidic skin ph.
GOLD PLATED / GOLD VERMEIL:

2. Our Vermeil Plating is a thicker type of plating at 3 Microns thick it is longer lasting and will wear longer than the flash plated option. It also has a 18ct Gold colour.
