JEWELLERY CARE

Sissy Koukeri  jewellery is made from 925 sterling silver and/or 18ct gold-plated sterling silver. Sterling silver naturally tarnishes with the exposure to air and the environment as well as perfumes, lotions and perspiration. Silver is susceptible to damage by chlorine and salt. Avoid wearing silver jewellery when using chlorine or bleach, or while in a pool, hot tub or sea water.

Using the finest craftsmanship available, our gold plating is a layer of gold on top of sterling silver. Although solid gold or gold-plated jewellery will not tarnish like silver, it will get dirty with wear and chemicals, lotions, perfumes and moist conditions will corrode it. Gold-plating may in time slightly fade depending on wear and the amount of care taken. This gives the appearance that some of the gold plate has worn off.

We do offer a full re-conditioning service for all Sissy Koukeri jewellery in order to ensure that your jewellery returns back to it s original pristine condition. Please see details below.

Tips for ensuring that your beautiful jewellery is maintained in a mint condition.

Store your jewellery away from exposure to air/environment. A zip/lock plastic bag is a very practical and cheap way to do this. This will be especially useful for silver jewellery, as it will cut down on tarnish significantly.

Acid free tissue is an excellent way to store the jewellery.

Do not store jewellery next to heating vents, windowsills or in the bathroom. Damp and hot condition will cause the jewellery to tarnish badly.

Skin and hair products can react, causing the silver to tarnish and erode the gold. Perfumes, lotions and creams will tarnish and corrode the jewellery. Apply any scents or cosmetics before you put on your jewellery.

Remove jewellery when exercising, cleaning, gardening or any other rough or physical work.

Avoid wearing your jewellery at sleep

Hot weather, bright sunlight and perspiration can also speed up the tarnishing process and damage gemstones. Jewellery should always be taken off before the pool, shower or sea.

Gold-plated jewellery can be cleaned with warm soapy water and a really soft toothbrush. Then rinse thoroughly and dry well.

FAULTY ITEMS
