Caring for your jewelry:
Silver jewelry can be cleaned with a commercial silver cleaning product, a dry polishing cloth or even a dab of toothpaste and water.
My copper jewelry is not coated with any kind of laquer or wax. Copper pieces will darken and develop a nice dark brown patina over time. If you want to bring your copper piece back to its original finish, rub it with a dry jewelry polishing cloth. This will brighten up the hilights and remove excess oxidation while retaining the original patina.
