Sterling Silver
925 Standard
Sterling silver is a durable and affordable precious metal as well as a great choice for everyday wear. It's also hypoallergenic, so you don't have to worry about nasty reactions.
Sterling silver is an alloy which is made up of 92.5% pure silver. The remaining part is other metals (usually copper), which are used to add durability and help the jewellery hold its shape. 925 Sterling is the standard when it comes to quality jewellery - you'll find it stamped on pieces from many of the world's biggest brands.
How to Clean 18k Fine Gold Plated Jewellery
Use a Polishing Cloth
Give your silver pieces a gentle polish now and then with a jewellery cloth to remove dust and unveil their brightest shine. You can also occasionally use a silver jewellery cleaner.
Wash Gently
For an extra clean, wash your sterling silver in a soapy water bath. A mild detergent will remove excess grime and oil which can build up over time as you wear your jewels. Make sure to rinse and dry your jewellery afterwards.
Store Safely
After cleaning, store your jewellery in a safe place to keep them looking their best.
What NOT to Do
Avoid Abrasive Bristles
You should only polish with a very soft cloth, and when giving your gold jewellery a bath, use your fingers. Don't use anything with abrasive bristles.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Don't use any harsh chemicals to clean your gold jewellery (household cleaners have no place here!).
