Hints on Better Maintenance of Sterling Sliver Jewelry
Sliver represents a kind of nobility,
elegance, grace and purity. Therefore, more and more people, especially women,
would like to choose the sterling sliver jewelries as their ornaments. However,
many of them don't know to maintain them so as to keep them as shining as they
are new. Today, I want to share some maintaining common sense for sterling
sliver jewelry.
First of all, how to maintain sterling
sliver jewelry when we don't wear it? The answer is to keep it in a sealed
package. In order to explain this method, we need to know the basic chemical
knowledge. The chemical property of sliver is less stable than gold and
platinum and it may become black, yellow or even lose its shining because of
the oxygen in the air. Therefore, the sealed package has the good function of
keeping it from oxygen in the air. In other words, this method also aims at
maintaining the sterling sliver jewelry as dry as possible.
Then, how can we maintain the sterling
sliver jewelry when we are wearing it? In fact, the best way to maintain the
sterling sliver jewelry is to wear it everyday. The reason is the oil of human
body plays a vital role in making it retain shining. However, there are still
some aspects that you should take into consideration. For example, in the hot
summer, the sweat of you contains the composition that will make the silver
ornaments be black or lose gloss. Besides, you also need to take them off when
you are swimming, which is still because of the oxygen in water. In the
meantime, what you also need to bear in mind is that never wearing the sterling
sliver jewelry with other metal accessories. Silver itself is quite soft and
the metal accessories may leave scratches of they are worn together.
In addition, how to clean the sterling
sliver jewelry is also very important when it comes to maintaining it.
Generally speaking, you should be as gentle and tender as you can when you
clean it. Thus, the cleaning tools are very significant. Usually, the most
often chosen tools are soft cloth and brush as well as some toothpaste. When it
comes to soft cloth, the eyeglasses cloth is the very first choice. Of course,
if you are worried about harming it when cleaning it by yourself, you can bring
it to the technician who is aiming at such cleaning work for sterling sliver
products.
A large number of people fancy silver jewelries;
however, they do not know how to preserve them. They consider it difficult and
troublesome to preserve their silver jewelries. Actually, it is not. The
chemical features of silver are not as stable as platinum or gold. As a result,
silver jewelries tend to lose its luster if exposed in the air inappropriately.
First, the best way to preserve your sterling silver
jewelries is to wear them every day. The reason is that, human body and
temperature can trigger your silver jewelries to emit mild and natural luster.
You'd better put the silver jewelries in boxes or bags to prevent the surface
of the silver from being exposed to air and getting oxidized if you are not
wearing them very often.
Second, squeeze some toothpaste to wash your silver
jewelries and you will be amazed by the effect. After having cleaned it
thoroughly, lock the jewelries in the drawer or secure place.
Third, be noted that you are not wearing gold
jewelries when wearing silver jewelries so as to avoid friction.
Fourth, keep your silver jewelries dry. Prepare a
piece of special clothing to clean your jewelries. Remember to take them off
when you are swimming or in the water.
Fifth, if you want to keep the luster on your
jewelries permanently, there is another tip you can refer to. Paint a thin
layer of fingernail polish on the surface of the newly bought silver jewelries
once every ten days. If you want to remove the fingernail polish, just place
the silver jewelries in the banana water and then wash them with clean water.
Sixth, take the silver jewelries off when you are
sleeping. The texture of the silver is rather soft and it tends to deform when
being suppressed.
Seventh, consult from professional personnel to gain
more information about preserving silver jewelries. Some people tend to try
methods of their own without knowing that some improper preservation might
impose destructible damage to the silver jewelries. There are a variety of
chemical products to choose from provided you want to better clean your
jewelries. However, you have to be noted that misconduct can ruin your
jewelries completely. Hence, it is of vital importance for you to be guided
properly.
These methods are both effective and simple. In fact,
silver preserving is never something difficult to do. All you need to do is to
pay close attention and focus on the details.
When people see a piece of gemstone
necklace, they see the social status and financial condition of the wearer. It
seems to possess magic power. An ordinary person will stand out in the crowd
once she wears a piece of gemstone jewelry. However, the disadvantage of
gemstone is that: a certain style and type of gemstone matches only a certain
type of people. If you wear it in the wrong way, you will look rather
ridiculous instead of noble and graceful. Several things should be noted before
you put on a piece of gemstone jewelry.
First, people with white complexion tend to
have a wider range of choice when choosing the right type of gemstone jewelry.
If your complexion is a little bit dark, it is advised that you choose some
yellow gemstone jewelry because it can function effectively to soften your
complexion and bring out the natural beauty of yours.
Second, if you are slim and tall, you
should wear jewelry with small sized gemstone. Slim and tall people have an
advantage in buying beautiful and small sized clothes. Yet, when it comes to
jewelry, they also have to apply to a certain rule in order to not make a fool
of themselves. If you are a little plump, be noted that the size if the
gemstone should also match your body size. Plump people look very noble and
elegant in gemstone beads.
Third, if you are a quiet person, you can
wear some crystal necklace in order to highlight your tranquil personality. If you
are a passionate person, you can try some rubies because they can add touch to
your perky personality.
Fourth, pay attention to your facial shape
and take it into consideration when selecting the most suitable type to wear.
If you have a long face, a crystal necklace will only elongate your necklace.
Under this situation, you can choose some simple, concise and cute necklace to
make your long face less obvious. Of course, if you happen to have a round
face, you can wear a thin, long necklace to elongate your face.
Last but not least, gemstone can reflect a
person's social status but if you want to show off your high social status by
wearing several pieces of gemstone jewelry at the same time, you will only ruin
your image. Concise and simple are the priority.
It is rather complicated to wear the right
kind of gemstone jewelry. However, if you manage to have insight in this
aspect, you will be able to display your charm and elegance to the fullest.
Gemstone alone is another name for elegance, yet when it is used as a
decorative tool, its effect can be magnified and diminished considering the
fashion taste of its owner.

have careful maintenance after using the jewelry. If we do not hope to wear it
later for a long time, we should use a piece of cotton cloth or soft tissue to
gently clean the surface, remove the moisture and dirt and then store it into a
cloth bag of soft texture. It should be avoided to touch directly with the air;
