How important is it to have my jewelry evaluated?

Dear Jeweller.

I love silver jewelry. The only reason that I don’t wear silver is because I find the cleaning and polishing very tedious. This is why I don’t buy silver jewelry. As a matter of fact, I have not bought silver jewelry in 10 years. I wonder how the silver jewelry in your store stays so shiny. What is your secret and how can I keep my silver jewelry shining like at your store and enjoy wearing it?

Hello Alexandra

Ten years of avoiding something that you love can have a serious affect on your well being! I hope that after you read this, you will be able to enjoy your love for Silver Jewelry. When you visited our store, you may have noticed that all our jewelry is displayed in special containers. Now you will learn the BIG SECRET and your fears about silver will be dispelled.

Here are some important care recommendations to help you keep you jewelry looking as new.

1) Many people do not know that when worn , your silver jewelry will remain always shiny due to the anti-tarnish properties of the human skin. A simple light hand polishing from time to time will keep your jewelry shining as new.

2) However, when not worn, all silver jewelry must be kept in an airtight environment. This is the secret! For this reason, a plastic “zip” bag is provided our staff at the time of purchase. When not worn, just enclose it tight in this bag and your jewelry will remain shiny and as new. Now you can enjoy wearing silver again!

3) In case you forget, to enclose it in this bag, do not despair! For a nominal service charge, Bijouterie Guru will be happy to restore it to it's original shine. Check out some examples of our renowned polishing service.

4) Silver Dips and cleaning solutions are only recommended for plain silver jewelry. Semi-oxidized and treated silver and those with gems and pearls should not be immersed in these solutions because they can become damaged beyond repair. Sometimes a simple hand polish with a "polishing cloth" may suffice provide it is kept in the air tight baggy. We have a polishing cloth for sale in our store for $4.99.

Now you know! If you have silver jewelry that you never wear because it has tarnished, we recommend that you bring it to Bijouterie Guru and have it restored to its original shine and beauty. You will be amazed at the results. Then, you will keep it wrapped in an "air-tight" environment and keep it shining for ever and ever! You will only need a simple, effortless hand polish from time to time, to keep it beautiful as the first day you bought it.
