If you mistakenly choose incorrectly, you will be responsible for the round-trip shipping costs for exchanges.** **Important Notes for Wearing Silver Jewelry for the First Time** ◮ Avoid activities like visiting hot springs or swimming while wearing silver jewelry. The salt in seawater and the acidity of rainwater can slightly corrode metal and cause oxidation. Sulfur in hot springs will cause the jewelry to turn black and undergo vulcanization. If exposed to these substances, it is recommended to rinse the silver jewelry with clean water and dry it. ◮ Human sweat has a slightly acidic pH of 4 for antibacterial purposes. Studies have shown that prolonged contact can corrode metal and accelerate alloy oxidation. Our jewelry is not plated with other materials on the surface, making it more susceptible to corrosion and breakage when enclosed by sweat. However, **not everyone's sweat will cause breakage. If you have had similar experiences, please be extra cautious.** To keep silver jewelry looking new, it is recommended to wash and dry it after wearing it for the day if it comes into contact with sweat, and keep it dry. ◮ Products containing chemical additives can also cause silver jewelry to corrode. Products with chemical additives can indeed accelerate the oxidation of jewelry. Common examples include: skincare products, sunscreen, cosmetics, perfumes, essential oils, detergents, chlorine in swimming pools, etc. If you habitually wear perfume, it is recommended to spray perfume first, then wear jewelry, and avoid direct contact between jewelry and 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, store it in a zip-lock bag to block air and maintain dryness, and store each piece separately to prevent friction and surface scratches. ◮ Regarding 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. Simply wipe it gently with a silver polishing cloth to restore its original luster. However, in hard-to-reach areas like the gaps in a silver chain, the silver may appear slightly black. The vulcanization technique involves directly oxidizing 925 sterling silver jewelry to create a rustic, 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 extra cleaning. Frequent wear, where the surface of the jewelry rubs against clothing, can help maintain its newness. ◮ About Us To present the highest quality, each of our pieces is crafted through repeated inspection, correction, and polishing. We do not allow any pinholes or flaws. To ensure the tenacity of the material, we repeatedly forge and hammer the silver, giving our 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 spend many times more effort on the details. If you happen to purchase one of our pieces, you will find that its oxidation rate is significantly slower compared to most other silver products, and its luster is also different. We hope you can find your own unique piece of jewelry here.
