- Ways to Preserve Jewelry From Tarnishing-
- PROPER STORAGE. The simplest way to keep them from dulling and tarnishing is putting them in small, air tight plastic bags such as Ziploc bags which come in all different sizes (Can be found at local craft stores, Walmart, or online.) For a more secured storage, you can also use velvet or thick cloth bags which can protect your jewelry from the sun and safe from scratches and chips. Be sure to remove all the excess air from the bags prior to fastening, you don't want any moisture trapped inside! Then fasten the openings ensuring no air can get in.
- KEEP IT DRY. Exposure to moisture, acids, oils, and air is what tarnishes them. (Jewelry will tarnish quickly by contact with moisture and liquids. This includes putting on lotions, washing your hands, a spritz of perfume, and sweating with your jewels on. Even the oils on your skin can wear down the plating and metals over time - and this will again vary from person to person. Get your jewels wet by accident? Be sure to wipe and dry them off right away!)
- USE JEWELRY PROTECTANT SPRAY, POLISH, ETC. Give your jewelry a protective shield to fight the elements that contribute to tarnishing. Not only can it protect your favorite pieces longer, but some sprays or polish can also protect you from allergies like irritation, rashes, and hives, and even from turning your skin green/blueish.
