Jewelry made with silver requires certain care to ensure that it continues to remain shiny and radiant over time. The first thing you have to know is that silver is a noble metal and most of it is extracted as a byproduct of work carried out in mines with copper, zinc and gold.
Cleaning the jewel
It is normal that over time silver jewelry loses its shine or begins to look a little dark or even black in appearance. One of the main reasons is that they can accumulate small particles of dust or dirt, which is why it is important to clean the jewelry with a cloth to remove these dust particles and to restore shine to the jewelry.
The pH of the skin influences
The pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity, in this case of the skin, it is important that you know that people with a more acidic pH than normal could notice changes in their jewelry more easily. Silver jewelry is made with copper and this can react with an acidic pH, causing the jewelry to lose shine and giving it opacity and a dark appearance.
Wear your jewel
It seems like a joke but it's real, when you buy a silver piece of jewelry make sure you like it too much to wear it regularly because if you buy a piece of jewelry and keep it stored it will still turn dark due to the humidity in the environment. If you only want to use it on special occasions, we recommend cleaning it in the same way as if you will use it frequently.
