If there's a misunderstanding on your part, you will be responsible for the round-trip shipping costs for length exchanges.** **Important Information for First-Time Silver Jewelry Wearers** ◮ It is advisable to avoid wearing silver jewelry while soaking in hot springs or swimming. The salt in seawater and the acidity in rainwater can slightly corrode metal and cause oxidation. Sulfur found in hot springs will cause jewelry to darken and undergo sulfidation. If exposed to such substances, rinse the silver jewelry with clean water and dry it thoroughly. ◮ Human sweat has a slightly acidic pH of 4 for antibacterial purposes. Prolonged contact is known to cause corrosion and accelerate alloy oxidation. As our jewelry is not plated with other materials on the surface, it is more susceptible to corrosion and breakage when encased in sweat. However, **not everyone's sweat will cause breakage. If you have had similar experiences, please be extra cautious.** To maintain the pristine condition of your silver jewelry, we recommend washing and drying it after wear each day, and keeping it dry. ◮ Products containing chemical additives can also cause erosion of silver jewelry. Any product with chemical additives can accelerate the oxidation of jewelry. Common examples include: skincare products, sunscreen, cosmetics, perfumes, essential oils, detergents, and chlorine in swimming pools. For those who habitually wear perfume, it is recommended to apply perfume first, then wear the jewelry, to avoid direct contact. ◮ Develop good habits for use and storage. Taiwan's climate is humid, with relatively high air moisture. When not wearing the jewelry, be sure to wipe off any sweat or oil with a dry cloth and store it in a ziplock bag to prevent air exposure and maintain dryness. Store jewelry items separately to avoid friction and surface scratches. ◮ Regarding the sulfidation 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, similar to its reaction with hot spring water. Gently polishing with a silver polishing cloth will restore its original luster. However, in hard-to-reach areas, such as the gaps in a silver chain, the jewelry may appear slightly dark. The sulfidation technique involves intentionally oxidizing 925 sterling silver jewelry to create an antique, vintage, dark aesthetic, enhancing contrast and depth. This results in a more even and attractive appearance than natural air oxidation, and the crevices do not require additional cleaning. Frequent wear, allowing the jewelry surface to rub against clothing, can help maintain its newness. ◮ About Us To present the highest quality, each of our pieces is meticulously crafted through repeated checks, adjustments, and polishing. We do not allow any porosity or flaws. To ensure the robustness of the material, we employ repeated forging techniques, giving our silver jewelry a distinct luster and texture. Plated protective films have a high probability of peeling off with prolonged wear, impacting both the environment and the human body, while also obscuring the natural luster of silver. Therefore, our creations are never plated. We invest significantly more time in the details. If you happen to purchase one of our pieces, 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 can find a unique piece of jewelry that belongs to you here.
