Turquoise Shadow Set — Necklace, Bracelet & Earrings

How to Clean Sterling Silver Jewelry

For pieces without porous gemstones (like pearls, turquoise, or opals):

Simple Soap & Water Method

• Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water

• Soak the silver piece for 5–10 minutes

• Use a soft toothbrush or microfiber cloth to gently remove tarnish

• Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a lint-free cloth

Baking Soda & Foil Method (for heavier tarnish)

• Line a bowl with aluminum foil, shiny side up

• Add 1 tbsp baking soda + 1 tbsp salt

• Pour in hot water and stir

• Submerge the silver piece for 2–5 minutes

• Rinse and dry thoroughly

Avoid this method if your piece includes porous gemstones or glued settings—it can damage or loosen them.

What to Avoid

• Harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, or silver dips

• Ultrasonic cleaners if your piece includes delicate stones

• Paper towels or rough cloths that can scratch the surface

Semi-Precious Gemstones

Each stone carries its own quiet story. Handle with reverence to maintain its natural beauty.

• Spot Clean Only: Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently wipe the surface. Avoid soaking—especially for porous stones like turquoise, opal, or lapis.

• No Ultrasonics or Steam: These methods may fracture or discolor delicate stones.

• Protect from Heat & Light: Prolonged exposure can fade or weaken certain gems.

• Store Separately: Gemstones can scratch each other. Keep each piece in its own pouch or lined box.
