Living in a humid environment? Store your jewelry with a small packet of desiccant crystals so help reduce tarnishing.
Your gold vermeil and shiny jewelry should be kept in dark, cool, and dry places. With time and wear, storing silver will naturally be oxidized and eventually tarnish. Storing silver jewelry in a sealed plastic bag or airtight box when it is not being worn will keep out the air oxidation. The oxidation process is also slowed down by wearing your jewelry often. If however your jewelry is stored for long-periods of time, occasional cleaning is recommended to maintain shine and keep oxidation at bay.
All our Fanuza sterling silver jewelry is rhodium plated which protects the silver from exposure and help reduce long-term tarnishing.
Your jewelry is suspectable to damage from the effects of chemicals present in perfume, hairspray, make-up, nail polish remover, body oils, sun tan lotion and deodorant.
Do not keep your jewelry in direct sunlight as prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause many gemstones to fade and lose their color. Amethyst, rose quartz, chalcedony, and smokey quartz are just some of the gemstones that can become paler from exposure to sunlight.
