The salt from seawater and the acidity of rainwater in nature can slightly corrode metal and cause oxidation. Sulfur in hot springs can turn jewelry black and cause vulcanization. If exposed to these substances, it is recommended to rinse the silver jewelry with clean water and dry it. ◮ Human sweat, which has a high pH of 4 to sterilize the skin, has been shown to corrode metals and accelerate alloy oxidation with prolonged contact. As our jewelry is not plated with other materials on the surface, it is more susceptible to corrosion and breakage when enclosed by sweat. However, **not everyone's sweat will cause breakage, so individuals with similar experiences should be extra cautious**. To keep silver jewelry looking new, it is recommended to wash and dry it after wearing and to keep it dry. ◮ Products containing chemical additives can also cause silver jewelry to corrode. Products with chemical additives can actually accelerate the oxidation of jewelry. Common examples include: skincare products, sunscreen, cosmetics, perfumes, essential oils, detergents, chlorine in swimming pools, etc. For those who habitually wear perfume, it is recommended to apply perfume first and then wear jewelry, avoiding direct contact between the jewelry and the perfume. ◮ Develop good habits for use and storage. Taiwan's climate is humid, and the air humidity is relatively high. When not wearing the jewelry, be sure to wipe off any sweat or oils with a dry cloth and store it in a ziplock bag to block air and maintain dryness. Store jewelry pieces separately to avoid friction and prevent surface scratches or damage. ◮ About the vulcanization of silver jewelry 925 sterling silver is prone to oxidizing and turning yellow or black when exposed to air; this is a natural reaction of silver jewelry, similar to how pure silver reacts with hot spring water. Gently polishing with a silver polishing cloth can restore its original luster. However, in hard-to-reach areas like the crevices of a silver chain, the silver may appear slightly dark. Vulcanization is a technique that directly oxidizes 925 sterling silver jewelry to create an antique, aged, dark appearance, enhancing contrast and adding depth. This is more even and aesthetically pleasing than natural air oxidation, and the crevices do not require additional cleaning. Frequent wear, allowing the surface of the jewelry to rub against clothing, helps maintain a certain newness. ◮ About Us To present the highest quality, each of our pieces is meticulously crafted through repeated inspections, adjustments, and polishing, with absolutely no tolerance for porosity or imperfections. To ensure structural integrity, we repeatedly forge and hammer the metal, giving our silver jewelry a unique luster and texture. Plated protective films have a high probability of peeling off with long-term wear, which can affect both the environment and the human body, and also obscure the natural luster of silver. Therefore, our pieces are never plated. We dedicate significantly more time to the details. If you have the opportunity to purchase our work, you will notice that its oxidation rate is considerably slower compared to most other silver products, and its luster is also different. We hope you find a unique piece of jewelry that belongs to you here.
