KIORAH 925 Silver Jewellery Care Guide

Welcome to the KIORAH family! Our 925 Silver Luxury Jewellery is crafted with precision and care, and we want it to remain as stunning as the day you first wore it. Follow these simple tips to ensure your KIORAH pieces retain their beauty and brilliance for years to come.

ย 

1. Daily Wear & Storage

  • Wear Last, Remove First: Apply lotions, perfumes, and makeup before putting on your jewellery. Chemicals in these products can tarnish silver.
  • Separate Storage: Store your jewellery pieces separately in soft pouches or a lined jewellery box to prevent scratches. Silver is prone to tarnishing when exposed to air and moisture, so keep your pieces in a cool, dry place.
  • Avoid Moisture: Remove your jewellery before showering, swimming, or engaging in any activity where it might get wet. Chlorine and salt water can cause discoloration.

2. Cleaning Your Silver Jewellery

  • Regular Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently polish your jewellery after each wear. This helps remove oils and keeps your silver shining.
  • Deep Cleaning: For a deeper clean, mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water. Soak your jewellery for a few minutes, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use household cleaners, bleach, or abrasive materials on your silver jewellery. These can cause irreparable damage.

3. Preventing Tarnish

  • Anti-Tarnish Strips: Place anti-tarnish strips in your jewellery box or storage container to help absorb moisture and prevent tarnishing.
  • Frequent Wear: Believe it or not, wearing your silver jewellery regularly helps prevent tarnish. The natural oils on your skin keep the silver polished and lustrous.

4. Handling Special Pieces

  • Gemstones: If your KIORAH jewellery features gemstones, take extra care. Avoid direct sunlight and heat, as these can cause some stones to fade or become damaged.
  • Pearls: Pearls are delicate and should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid exposing them to perfumes or cosmetics, as these can damage their luster.

5. Professional Maintenance

  • Annual Check-Up: Consider taking your jewellery to a professional jeweler you can contact us once a year for a check-up. They can inspect for loose settings, clean hard-to-reach areas, and restore your pieces to their original brilliance for FREE.
  • Re-Plating & Polishing: Over time, even the best-cared-for jewellery may show signs of wear. Professional re-plating or polishing can bring your silver pieces back to life.

6. Travel Tips

  • Travel Storage: When traveling, keep your jewellery in a travel pouch or case with individual compartments to prevent tangling and scratching.
  • Insurance: For valuable pieces, consider insuring your jewellery before traveling to protect against loss or damage.
