Every Liyora piece is made in 92.5 sterling silver, meant to be worn often and loved for years. A few gentle habits are all it takes to keep it glowing.
Sunlight, humidity, and open air all speed up tarnish. Keep pieces you aren't wearing somewhere cool, dry, and dark. A soft pouch or a lined box does the job beautifully.
Perfume, lotion, and hairspray are the quiet culprits behind dulled silver. Make your jewellery the final touch of getting ready, and the first thing you remove at the end of the day.
Water, chlorine, and sweat don't mix well with silver. Slip off your pieces before a shower, a swim, or a workout, and let them rejoin you once you're dry.
Tangled chains and jostling stones are how scratches happen. Store each piece separately, and keep silver away from rubber bands or elastics, which can cause it to corrode.
A soft, dry polishing cloth is often all you need. For deeper tarnish, a gentle silver-safe cleanser works well, and always avoid abrasive brushes or harsh household chemicals.
It sounds counterintuitive, but silver loves being worn. The natural oils in your skin help keep it polished, so your everyday favourites often shine the brightest.
Even with the gentlest care, silver will occasionally ask for more than a soft cloth: a touch of tarnish settled into a detailed setting, or a chain that's lost a little of its glow.
If that happens, resist the urge to reach for a home remedy on stone-set pieces. Write in to us and we'll guide you through getting it professionally cleaned and restored, safely.
That's what every Liyora piece is made for. Treat it gently, wear it often, and it will stay with you for years to come.
