Follow these guidelines to keep your  silver jewellery looking as good as new :

Over time your silver jewellery will "tarnish" , to avoid this happening , try to keep it out of direct sunlight when your not wearing it , ideally it should be kept in a cloth or zip lock bag , were the air cant reach it.

The best way to clean your jewellery is by using a silver polishing cloth , if you are using a cloth to clean a chain , do not pull the chain through the cloth as this may result in the chain snapping or weakening. just simply rub the cloth over the chain to clean.

you can however use an other method of cleaning silver jewellery , this is by immersing it in a silver cleaning fluid. you can buy this at any good jewellery store. please be aware that silver cleaning fluids may not be good for use with pearls and other soft stones , so please check the label before immersing your jewellery in the cleaning fluid.

Another way to care for your silver is not to wear it in the shower or bath as this tends to speed up tarnishing.

I recommend using Connoisseurs Delicate Jewellery Dip to clean your jewellery because its safe for use with pearls & other semiprecious gemstones.
