Caring for Your Sterling Silver Jewelry
Your MamaJewels silver jewelry is made of rhodium-plated sterling silver, set with your preserved breast milk. The rhodium layer gives your piece its bright finish and helps protect it. With a little care, it will stay as beautiful as the day it arrived.
Everyday wear
- Put it on last and take it off first: apply perfume, lotion and hairspray before you put your jewelry on.
- Remove it before showering, bathing, swimming, exercising or visiting a sauna.
- Take it off for household chores, gardening and anything involving cleaning products.
Cleaning
- Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing.
- If needed, use a cloth with a little lukewarm water and dry it thoroughly.
- Avoid silver polishing cloths, dips and ultrasonic cleaners. They can wear away the rhodium plating over time.
- Keep it away from chlorine, alcohol and harsh cleaning products, which can also affect the breast milk setting.
Storing
- Store it in a closed pouch or box, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
- Keep it separate from other jewelry so it doesn't get scratched.
Good to know
Rhodium plating can gradually wear with daily use, especially on rings. This is completely normal. If you have any questions about your piece, just email us at info@mamajewels.us. We're always happy to help.
