Your Sterling Silver Jewelry can be hand washed in hot water with dish detergent, Dawn, blue works great. *Important immediately **PAT** dry with a soft cloth.* Keeping your Sterling in the Plastic Bag it came in when not being worn will slow tarnishing. To restore the brilliance use a polishing cloth. Perfumes, Lotions, bleach, chlorinated Water will accelerate the tarnishing.

The chains are all accurately measured end to end *including the clasp*. This is industry standard so you can measure accurately when ordering. Lay the chain full length, use a measuring tape for an easy, accurate measurement, don't forget that the clasp is part of the measurement. (Doubling the chain and measuring will give you an incorrect measurement)

Does Sterling Silver tarnish?

Sterling Silver does tarnish on a gradual basis. If it is a sudden tarnish that is most likely a chemical reaction. This can be caused by perfumes, colognes skin lotions, in addition bleach, chlorinated water, like hot tubs swimming pools, and Sulphur products. Rhodium plated sterling silver will resist tarnish, there is one listing that includes all Rhodium plated sterling silver chains.

What are the other metals you have listed?

Rhodium -used to coat sterling silver chains to prevent tarnish Ruthenium -coats sterling silver for a dark brown/black color Vermeil -Gold coats Sterling Silver Stainless Steel - Hypoallergenic, very hard. Used for ear wires Does not tarnish resists scratching. Steel gray color, can achieve a high polish. Wash with Dawn dish detergent You can safely wear it all the time. The sculpted 3D stainless steel pieces are being phased out. Rose Silver - has a warm glow like the sunrise, it takes a little extra care due to the copper content in the silver. Like a copper penny it will darken with age. Restore the brilliance with a polishing cloth. Perfumes, lotions, bleach, chlorinated hot tub/pool water will all accelerate darkening.

What does 925 Sterling Silver mean & what is in Sterling Silver, and how does it effect the color. besides Silver?

Sterling Silver is comprised of 92.5% fine silver. That is what 925 means. The other 7.5% can be different metals. Often used is copper. Copper tarnishes more quickly then other metals, but gives a color you may be used to in Sterling Silver. Some manufacturers use other metals that can cost more then copper, but don't tarnish as quickly. Commonly used in the better quality chains is Zinc. Zinc is a very hard white metal, these chains have a very white appearance. Lower quality chains, I don't carry, use nickel, often the cause of allergic reactions. It adds a slightly darker duller color to 925 chains. Many 925 chains are coated with other metals to alter the color, & reduce tarnishing. See FAQ What are the other metals you have listed?

The seller went above and beyond to listen to my questions and provide advice ahead of and during the purchase. I had to return for a different size and she was very accommodating. The chains are durable and lovely, with all expectations exceeded.
