Silver Jewellery Care Instructions:
Welcome to our Care Instructions page. At Leo Mila Uk, we pride ourselves on the quality and craftsmanship of our silver jewellery. To ensure your pieces remain as beautiful as the day you received them, we've compiled these guidelines. Proper care and attention will help preserve the shine and prevent tarnishing.
General Care:
Avoid Exposure: Keep your silver jewellery away from harsh chemicals such as chlorine, bleach, and ammonia. Contact with these substances can deteriorate the shine of your silver.
Remove During Tasks: To prevent physical damage or exposure to chemicals, remove your jewellery when performing tasks such as cleaning, gardening, or swimming.
Store Properly: Store your silver in a cool, dry place, ideally in a tarnish-resistant cloth or bag. Individual compartments in a jewellery box or pouches can prevent scratching.
Wear After Applying Cosmetics: Lotions, perfumes, hairsprays, and other cosmetics can contain chemicals that can tarnish silver. Put on your jewellery last to minimize contact.
Cleaning Your Silver Jewellery:
Regular Cleaning: Gently wipe your silver jewellery with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear. This will remove any oils or residues and prevent tarnish.
Deep Cleaning: For a deeper clean, use a solution of warm water and mild dish soap. Soak for a few minutes, then gently brush with a soft-bristle brush. Rinse under clean water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Polishing: Over time, silver may naturally tarnish. Use a special silver cloth to polish your jewellery gently. Avoid using tissue paper or paper towels as they can scratch the surface.
Professional Cleaning: For heavily tarnished pieces or intricate designs, consider professional cleaning to restore your jewellery's brilliance.
Special Considerations:
Oxidized Silver: Some silver jewellery is intentionally oxidized to add depth and character. Avoid polishing these pieces as it can remove the desired finish.
Gemstones: If your silver jewellery includes gemstones, be cautious as some cleaning methods can damage them. It's best to clean these pieces with a soft, dry cloth.
