 3 Great Ways to Make Your Jewelry Last

Because Adah jewelry is made of precious metals like gold and sterling silver it’s important to treat them as precious! Wearing, storing and cleaning them well will help them last for the long haul and keep them tarnish-free.

So here are our tips for how to do all of that—well!

 
 

It turns out the best way to keep your jewelry beautiful, shiny and tarnish-free is— wear it! Wearing your piece means there is regular contact with your skin which prevents tarnish from even setting in.

Here’s how we recommend wearing your Adah Jewelry—

As a general rule, precious metals don’t get along well with chemicals so—

  • Take off before swimming and showering

  • Take off before physical activity

  • We recommend fragrances and lotions not be used on the areas the jewelry is worn

  • Follow the “Last On. First Off.” Rule.  Put your jewelry on last– after everything else including clothes, lotions, SPF, fragrances, etc. And when you’re done for the day, take your jewelry off first.

Did You Know…

Tarnish is a natural process that sets in when metal, specifically copper, comes into contact with chemicals and impurities in the air.  All jewelry whether vermeil or solid gold have some levels of copper content since precious metals are too soft to be used for jewelry on their own. That’s why you’ll notice discoloration even in solid gold pieces. All that to say,  if tarnish sets in this doesn’t mean you have bad quality jewelry.  A simple clean for the tarnish should remove the discoloration. And that’s the sign you’ve got the real deal!
