Jewelry care guide
Preserve the Glow
Sterling silver is a living metal that thrives in the right environment.
Â
To maintain its soft, luminous shine, store your Saraafa pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Â
Using an anti-tarnish pouch or an airtight box prevents oxidation and ensures your jewelry remains as radiant as the day it was crafted.
The Cleaning Rule
Gently polish your silver with a soft, non-abrasive cloth after each wear to remove oils and maintain its natural luster.
Avoid paper towels as they can cause micro-scratches on 92.5 sterling silver.
Last On, First Off
92.5 silver is sensitive to chemicals. Always apply perfumes, lotions, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry.
Make it the very last thing you put on and the first thing you take off at night.
The Storage Secret
Keep your pieces in a cool, dry place. Store silver in an airtight, anti-tarnish pouch or separate jewelry box compartments to prevent oxidation and tangling.Â
