What to Do About Silver Oxidation: A One-Minute Lesson in Silver Jewelry Care

Silver jewellery has always been a symbol of fashion and elegance. However, if not stored properly or regularly maintained, you may quickly find your beloved pieces losing their luster. This is not a quality issue but rather due to silver's tendency to oxidize! This article introduces you to the storage and maintenance methods for silver jewellery that OLIVIA YAO often recommends to our customers, allowing your silver pieces to maintain their sparkling appearance and accompany you for a long time.

Why Does Silver Oxidize?

The primary reason for silver oxidation is its reaction with sulfides in the air. This reaction forms a layer of black oxidation on the surface of the silver, causing the jewellery to darken and lose its luster. But don't worry, this is a natural property of silver, and we can easily address this issue.

Simple Silver Jewelry Maintenance

Regular Cleaning: Regular cleaning is the basic method to maintain the luster of silver jewellery. Use a silver polishing cloth or a soft cotton cloth to gently wipe the surface of the jewellery. This effectively removes the surface oxidation layer and restores the shine. Be careful not to exert too much force to avoid scratching. If you purchase silver jewellery from OLIVIA YAO, we provide a silver polishing cloth with every purchase!

Sealed Storage: When you're not wearing your silver jewellery, store them in sealed bags or jewellery boxes to reduce exposure to air. This slows down the oxidation process, ensuring your jewellery stays beautiful for longer. Especially when individually packaged, it prevents friction and scratches.
