Care Tips for Your Peace Sign Earrings
Make Your Peace Sign Earrings Last a Lifetime!

Sterling silver tarnishes really easily, but as long as you take the proper steps to cleaning and storing your jewelry, your sterling silver will stay shiny and sparkling for as long as you have it!

When cleaning, the most highly recommended cleaners to use would be “Hagerty Silversmiths’ Spray Polish” or “Hagerty’s Flatware Dip”.

The “Hagerty’s Flatware Dip” is probably the most recommended for at home use, as the spray polish is more used by manufacturers and jewelers.

 

Taking care of your peace sign earrings is just as important as looking good wearing your jewelry. Follow the steps on this page for the basic types of jewelry metals in order to keep your jewelry and peace sign earrings looking their absolute best!

Image of Jewelry Care.It has been said that leaving your silver in a cleaner is bad for your jewelry. That is not a true fact. It is completely harmless and one of the better ways to ensure your silver is tarnish free! As long as you do not leave your silver in the cleaner for too long, and when it’s done, you dry it off with a 100% cotton cloth, you should have absolutely no sterling silver problems!

It’s very easy to use, too. All you have to do is make sure you pour just enough cleanser to cover the entire piece of jewelry into a non-contaminated dish. Some cleaners come with a dish inside the bottle, but if yours doesn’t, a clean kitchen bowl will do fine. Carefully place the piece of jewelry into the cleaner and let sit for the allotted time on the cleaner bottle. Only ever clean one piece of jewelry in one dish at a time. This may cause your silver to tarnish instead of preventing it.

Storing your jewelry properly is more important than you’d think. When exposed to air or humidity for long periods of time, your jewelry could tarnish and wear out. When storing your sterling silver, keep it in a closed jewelry box or even in a closed drawer will do. Never keep it sitting out for longer than 48 hours.

Fine Silver Earrings

Fine silver and sterling silver are very similar when it comes to cleaning and caring for it. Just follow the same steps you would for sterling silver, but instead of using silver cleaners, only ever use fine jewelry cleaners.

The chemicals and products used in these cleaners are very light and won’t damage your fine silver.

Gold Peace Sign Earrings

Gold is supposed to be extremely durable, but that doesn’t mean it’s indestructible. There is always a chance something could happen to your gold jewelry, and for all you know you could be doing something that’s really bad for it without even knowing, whether that means storing improperly, cleaning it the wrong way, or exposing it to it’s major and only basic weakness.

 

 

When cleaning your gold, the best recommended way to achieve this is to get a professional to it. Take it to a jeweler. It’s a free service at almost any place you will go to. However, it’s not a big deal if you do it at home on your own—just make sure you’re using the proper cleaner. Never use a cleaner that isn’t specifically for gold. Other cleaners may have chemicals or products in it that will scratch gold. Follow the instructions on the cleaner, and always dry your gold with a 100% cotton cloth. Other cloths may leave behind unfriendly marks.

When storing your jewelry, never leave it exposed to air or humidity. Just like sterling silver, this may cause your gold to tarnish. The best way to store your gold is wrapped in a very fine cloth in a closed jewelry box or drawer. Don’t let your gold breath too much. Gold’s biggest weakness is chlorine. Never wear your gold in chlorine pools or hot tubs and never wear it when using products that contain chlorine. Chlorine causes gold to tarnish and break. Although gold is very easily restorable and fixable, it’s a hassle. Prevent your gold from falling apart by following these few simple steps mentioned here.

When you have jewelry that contains diamonds, you want to be very careful when cleaning it. Diamonds attract a lot of dirty, dust, and oils in which cut diamonds down and ruin their natural sparkle.

There’s no way to prevent your diamonds from becoming this way, but you can clean it away. Before using any cleaners, put cold water into a dish.

Carefully place the piece of jewelry in this dish and let it soak for a half an hour. This will break away the grime stuck on the diamond. Then, when finished, place a fine jewelry cleaner into a dish and let the piece of jewelry soak for the allotted time on the label of the cleaner. Dry using a fine cloth.
