The Care and Cleaning of 925/000 Silver Jewellery: Advice from Magna Grecia®

Magna Grecia® 925/000 silver jewels are not just accessories, but true pieces of art that deserve the utmost care to maintain their beauty over time. In this article, we will share practical tips on how to care for your precious jewellery, ensuring that it remains dazzling and timeless.

Why 925/000 Silver?

925/000 silver is an alloy composed of 92.5% pure silver and the remaining 7.5% other metals, usually copper. This combination gives the jewelry greater strength and durability, while maintaining its beauty and shine. Magna Grecia® jewels are made with high quality 925/000 silver, combining artisan tradition and innovation.

How to Store 925/000 Silver Jewelry

Correct Storage:

Store your jewelry in a dry, dark place, preferably in a fabric-lined box or velvet pouches. This helps prevent oxidation and scratches.

Avoid storing silver in humid places, such as the bathroom, as humidity can speed up the oxidation process.

Regular Cleaning:

Cleaning your jewelry regularly with a soft, silver-specific cloth helps maintain its shine.

Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. Opt for gentle cleaning solutions, such as mild soap and water, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.

Oxidation Protection:

Wearing your jewelry regularly can paradoxically help prevent tarnishing, as the skin's natural oils keep the silver shining.

If you notice signs of tarnish, you can use silver cleaners or home methods such as a paste of baking soda and water.

Specific Maintenance for Stones and Pearls

Magna Grecia® jewelry may include hydrothermal stones, natural freshwater pearls and other precious gems. Here are some tips for their care:

Hydrothermal Stones and Gems:

Avoid contact with chemicals such as perfumes, hairsprays and lotions. These products can damage stones.

Clean the stones with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove any residue.

Natural Pearls:

Pearls are particularly delicate. Avoid contact with chemicals and clean them with a soft, damp cloth.

Store pearls separately from other jewelry to avoid scratches.

Additional Tips for Long Lasting

To ensure that your Magna Grecia® jewels last over time, follow these additional tips:

Wear your jewelry last: After applying makeup, perfume, and hair products, put on your jewelry. This helps minimize exposure to chemicals.

Remove jewelry during physical activities: Remove jewelry during activities such as sports, swimming or housework. This avoids damage and premature wear.

Schedule Periodic Checkups: Take your jewelry to a professional jeweler for periodic checks and cleanings, ensuring they remain in tip-top condition.
