Always store your jewellery pieces individually in a dry place, preferably in your mon éclat pouch, so that the pieces don’t rub against each other, scratch, or tangle. Also remember to keep your chains apart so they don’t become tangled.
At mon éclat we use the highest quality 925 sterling silver jewellery in our pieces which helps reduce long-term tarnishing.
Take care to avoid water contact (sea, pools & showering) as this may cause tarnishing. Your gold and silver jewellery should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry place.
With time and wear, 925 sterling silver will naturally become oxidised and eventually tarnish. Storing 925 silver jewellery in a sealed plastic bag or airtight box when it is not being worn will keep out the air that causes oxidation. If, however, your jewellery is stored for long periods of time, occasional cleaning is recommended to maintain shine and keep oxidation at bay. Learn how to clean your 925 sterling silver here.
Your jewellery is particularly susceptible to damage from the effects of chemicals present in perfume, hairspray, make-up, nail polish remover, chlorine water, body oils, suntan lotion, and deodorant.
