First of all, the materials used by Ao are silver925/18k/pt950.

[ silver925 ]

Silver925 is 92.5% silver, and the remaining 7.5% is a mixture of metals such as copper. This is because silver is originally soft, so other metals are mixed in to maintain its strength.

Some people may feel that their silver accessories have darkened after wearing them for a long time, but in fact, they are not rusting, but rather darkening due to a reaction called sulfurization. This sulfurization is caused by sulfur components in the air, sweat, and components in hot springs. Unlike rust, sulfurization only creates a film on the metal surface, so it can be restored to its original state by simply polishing the surface.

We will introduce how to store and care for your product.

[Storage method]

In order to prevent discoloration due to sulfurization, it is important to keep the leather out of air. Also, be careful not to expose it to sweat, sebum, cosmetics, perfume, etc., as these can also cause discoloration.

1. After use, wipe off with a silver cloth.

2. Divide your accessories into small pieces and store them in small zipper bags. Store earrings and other items separately for each side. We recommend wrapping them in cloth or tissue to prevent scratches.

These measures will help reduce discoloration. They may seem like a lot of work, but they're very easy, so give them a try!

[Care instructions]

1. Polish with a silver cloth: You can keep it in good condition by polishing it with a silver cloth on a daily basis.

2. Use Speed-Dip, a sulfide removal cleaner for silver: Immerse the silver accessory you want to clean in Speed-Dip. Do not hold it directly in your hands, but use a non-conductive object to immerse it in the liquid. Immerse it in the liquid for no more than 10 seconds. Then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. If the effect is not sufficient after one treatment, repeat the washing and soaking process.

Even if your silver accessories have turned black, it is possible to restore them to their original condition, so be sure to try these care methods.

[ 18k ]

[Care instructions]

1. Wipe with a soft cloth: Wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth or a special jewelry cloth to remove dirt and fingerprints, especially after wearing or taking off your jewelry every day.

With proper storage and care, your 18K jewelry will remain beautiful for a long time.
