Care guide for silver jewelryUpdated 3 months ago
Silver jewelry is timeless, eye-catching, and never quite identical – each piece has its own character. Kaiko jewelry is handcrafted in Nepal, and the texture is created by hand hammering, making every piece truly unique ✨
About silver:
- Some pieces are 925 sterling silver, others are 100% silver (you can check the exact material on the product page).
- All jewelry is nickel-free, but may irritate very sensitive skin.
- Silver is a soft and flexible metal that can naturally oxidize and darken over time.
Darkening is a natural property of silver, not a defect – and it’s easy to restore with proper care.
How to keep your silver jewelry looking its best
Cleaning:
- Silver can be easily brightened by polishing.
- Regular cleaning helps keep the surface fresh and prevents tarnish from building up.
Storage:
- Store your jewelry in a dry place, protected from light.
- For example, keeping pieces in a minigrip bag helps slow down tarnishing.
- Store pieces separately to help maintain their finish.
Good to know:
- Silver may darken faster when exposed to chemicals, such as cosmetics, perfumes, or hair products.
Silver jewelry is made to be worn and loved. With a little care, it stays beautiful and ready to wear for years to come ✨
