Jewelry pieces crafted from brass or copper demand extra care and protection to prevent tarnishing, especially if subjected to rough handling.
Here are some essential tips to ensure the longevity of your brass or copper jewelry:
- Mindful Usage: Avoid wearing your jewelry during activities such as exercising, showering, swimming, and hand washing, as exposure to moisture can accelerate tarnishing.
- Keep Away from Harsh Elements: Shield your jewelry from direct heat, perfumes, water, deodorants, and strong chemicals, as these substances may react with the metal or plating, leading to discoloration.
- Handle with Care: Refrain from rubbing or scratching your jewelry against other pieces to prevent the plating from wearing off prematurely.
- Gentle Cleaning: After each use, delicately wipe your jewelry with a cloth to remove any residue and enhance its lifespan.
- Storage Precaution: Store your jewelry in a pouch or jewelry box to shield it from exposure to air and moisture, which can contribute to tarnishing.
On the other hand, our stainless steel pieces boast water resistance, hypoallergenic properties, and tarnish-proof qualities for an extended lifespan. However, it’s still advisable to exercise caution and follow the aforementioned care tips to further enhance their durability.
