• Pure silver is soft, so it is generally combined with other metals (usually copper) to produce a more resilient product.

• Sterling silver is made up of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals.

• Silver items should have a 925-hallmark stamp on them.

• Silver needs to be polished because it tarnishes when exposed to the atmosphere.

• Silver is cleaned using a silver polish cloth – enquire by us for further info.

• To avoid damage, Sterling silver should be stored in the pouches and boxes supplied with your purchase when not in use.

• Do not expose to chemicals such as bleach, perfumes, hair sprays, detergents, body lotions, chlorinated or seawater.
