Handle with care when putting on and taking off to prevent breakage. ▲14K Gold-Filled, 925 Sterling Silver Sterling silver is a familiar material, so we won't elaborate further. The most direct and convenient way to care for it is with a silver polishing cloth. As for 14K Gold-Filled (Gold filled) material: Unlike standard plating, the Gold-filled technique involves permanently bonding gold to a base metal under high pressure and heat. This results in a higher gold content and thickness compared to electroplating. Gold-filled accessories have the potential to maintain their color for several years, with less impact from sweat or water contact. However, it's still best to avoid contact with chemical products. Over time, they may naturally oxidize and darken; simply use a gold or silver polishing cloth for care. ▲Brass Brass accessories naturally develop a vintage golden hue when exposed to air and water. General care methods include: - Gently brushing with diluted lemon juice. - Wiping with a silver polishing cloth or silver polishing stick. - Lightly brushing with toothpaste and water. ▲Gold-Plated/Silver-Plated Accessories Gold-plated and silver-plated items feature an outer layer of precious metals like gold or silver. This outer layer can wear away, oxidize, and fade over time. To extend their lifespan, minimize contact with water, sweat, and chemicals, and be sure to wipe them clean after wearing.
