Caring for Your Silver
Handcrafted 925 sterling silver rewards a little attention. These are the habits that keep your piece bright, plated, and brilliant for a lifetime.
Daily
Wear it well
- Put jewellery on last — after perfume, lotion, and hairspray — and take it off first.
- Remove before swimming, showering, sleeping, and exercise.
- Chlorine, sweat, and household chemicals are what dull silver fastest.
Clean
A gentle hand
- Wipe after each wear with a soft, lint-free cloth to lift skin oils.
- For a deeper clean: warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, a soft toothbrush for detail, then rinse and pat fully dry.
- Use a dedicated silver polishing cloth for tarnish — never paper towels, which scratch.
Plating
Rhodium-plated pieces
- Skip abrasive polishes and silver dips — they strip the rhodium layer.
- Clean with mild soap and water only.
- The finish is renewable: Zanvari replates for the life of the piece.
Stones
Moissanite brilliance
- Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush, then rinse well.
- Fire and sparkle dull from lotion and oil buildup, not from wear.
- A minute of care restores the full flash of D/VVS1 moissanite.
Store
Rest it right
- Keep each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined box to prevent scratches.
- Add an anti-tarnish strip or silica packet; keep away from humidity and direct sun.
- Airtight storage slows tarnish for pieces you wear less often.
Avoid
Keep these away
- Chlorine and swimming pools
- Bleach and ammonia
- Sulphur-heavy environments
- Perfume & lotion on the piece
- Ultrasonic cleaners on plated or stone-set jewellery
- Paper towels and tissue for polishing
