Material info and care of my jewellery

Material and quality

I focus on both aesthetics and good quality. My team and I therefore make the jewelry with precision, and they are made of 925 marked sterling silver with or without 18 carat gold plating. Some jewelry is set with synthetic stones, making them strong and affordable for you;)

How to prevent your jewelry from oxidizing and the gold from fading

Your jewelry will last a long time if you remember to take good care of it. So read on here to learn what to avoid to prevent oxidation and protect the gold plating. Gold plating will eventually wear off, but you can prolong this process by taking care of them <3

  • Take off your jewelry at night, as you often sweat at night, which can cause discoloration on the jewelry and skin.
  • Do not let your jewelry come into contact with water when washing your hands, cleaning, and showering, to more easily avoid contact with soaps. This also extends the gold plating of the jewelry.
  • Take off all your jewelry when applying makeup, cream, or perfume. This is especially important with my freshwater pearls, as they lose their luster if they come into contact with beauty products.
  • When cooking, it's also a good idea to leave your jewelry off, so you avoid a splatter of meat sauce on your favorite bracelet ;)

Re-gilding

My jewelry is 18-karat gold-plated sterling silver. This means that the gold will wear off over time. To make your gold jewelry last forever, I offer to re-gild them for only DKK 100 per piece. Send me an email at info@sifjasminsmykker.dk if you wish to have your jewelry re-gilded✨

Why has my jewelry turned black?

Black spots or discolorations on jewelry are caused by oxidation and are a natural silver reaction (unfortunately). This can happen when the jewelry reacts to oxygen in the air. So, a black piece of jewelry is NOT a complaint, as this can happen with all jewelry and is not due to a defect or poor craftsmanship.
Discoloration can be caused by contact with sweat, makeup, and creams.
Oxidation can also occur with gold jewelry, as gold is an alloy and is therefore mixed with another precious metal, such as silver. So when gold jewelry turns black, it is the silver in the gold alloy that has oxidized.

How to clean your black jewelry

The black discoloration can be removed by dipping it in liquid silver cleaner for 5 seconds and no more, as they can become dull from this. Afterwards, rinse your jewelry in water and dry it with a cloth.
