Every woman loves wearing gorgeous jewellery. Jewellery designs used to be made mostly in gold which was the ‘in’ metal for jewellery, but many young women are opting for Silver Jewellery these days. Silver is a popular metal used in jewellery settings because the beauty of the metal increases the brilliance of gemstones. Another reason for preferring silver is the high soaring price of gold. It is less expensive than gold and affordable by all.There are many kinds of silver jewellery designs. You can get Silver Pendants, necklaces, rings, earrings, Silver Bracelets and bangles. Whether you prefer the antique or modern silver jewellery designs there is a vast array to choose from both in stores and online.

Silver needs to be stored in a cool and dry place. If you keep your silver in the open air for long periods of time, you will find that the silver tarnishes. This appears as a golden color which quickly turns to black. It’s caused by the oxidization and moisture from the air. Store your silver in an air-tight bag. To avoid scratches keep your silver away from other hard items.

Taking care of your silver jewellery is easy. Use a 100% cotton cloth to avoid scratching the jewellery. If your items are particularly tarnished, you may need to use a good metal polish. Another way to clean your jewellery is with soap and water. This will retain the shine of your silver jewellery. Once clean, just pat dry with a soft cloth. Regular cleaning will reduce the need for polishing your silver jewellery. Designs that include gems need extra care. If you are uncertain whether your gems will be affected by the cleaner, get your jewellery professionally cleaned. Don’t apply perfumes and body lotions once you are wearing your silver jewellery. The chemicals are likely to cause oxidization of the silver and will ultimately give it a dull look. It’s best to apply all your cosmetic products before wearing the jewellery.

Proper storage and cleaning will keep the beauty of your silver jewellery.
