Tips on Preserving Sterling Silver Jewelry - 8/1/2011

Buying jewelry is a long term decision because it emanates a timeless appeal. Wouldn’t you want to prolong their shelf lives and preserve them for a long time? If you have a sterling silver jewelry collection, below are some tips to help you.

Jewelry boxes are created for a reason. Use them to store your sterling silver jewelry. Silver jewelry manufacturers also advise t store sterling silver inside a zip lock bag before storing it inside the jewelry box. It’s also best not to combine sterling silver with pearls, gold and any other kind of jewelry. Some boxes have dividers and sections which are also pretty useful.

Scratches and abrasives can ruin sterling silver jewelry so you must be very careful when using cloth for cleaning. A gentle cloth will not only remove lotion, makeup or chemicals from the jewelry but also will make the jewelry shinier. Tarnish is the biggest issue among customers and it’s important to make sure that jewelry is polished by silver jewelry manufacturers every now and then.

Sterling silver dips are also cleaning solutions designed for sterling silver. They can be bought from silver jewelry manufacturers. By dipping the silver jewelry in and out of the cleaning solution, it will help bring out the shine of the jewelry and make it look shiny again. Buffing the jewelry with a soft cotton cloth after using the cleaning dip can also help take out all the chemical residues.

Tangles and knots are also quite common with jewelry necklaces. To solve this problem, use a pin as the tool for loosening the knots and straighten out the strands. This can also result to breaking the silver jewelry altogether so taking it to silver jewelry manufacturers to for disentangling is also a good idea. Tucking the jewelry inside a case neatly avoids unwanted loops.

 

The value of jewelry diminishes once it has been damaged so these tips are very useful not only for sterling silver but other jewelry pieces. To browse a few of top-notch sterling silver pieces, click on our product catalog.

What Sets Sterling Silver Apart from Other Jewelry - 8/1/2011

Sterling silver jewelry is favored by many because of its elegance and appeal that is "just right." Sterling silver accessories, earrings and necklaces is appropriate for almost every occasion and compliments most colors. Read the other characteristics below to find out what sets sterling silver apart and might even make you think about having a collection of your own.


To be more specific, .925 sterling silver is preferred by jewelry aficionados because they don't lose appeal over time and are just as dazzling as gold and pearls yet not too expensive. The trademark .925 sterling silver means that it is not made of pure silver. This is not a bad thing because generally, silver is too soft to be molded into a bracelet or a necklace. Sterling silver jewelry manufacturers mix them with other metals for them to be turned into jewelry.


Silversmiths and sterling silver jewelry manufacturers also use the 925 trademark to ensure the authenticity of jewelry pieces they are selling. When purchasing items for a collection, you need to find a store that has not only intricate pieces but also customer service. This will come in handy in the long run especially if you have your jewelry cleaned, restored or repaired.


Do you want to make your collection more personal? Take it to your sterling silver jewelry manufacturer and have your initial or name engraved to make the jewelry piece more meaningful. Jewelry can also be used as a precious gift for your loved ones. A necklace, pendant, ring or silver accessories is good for birthdays, anniversaries or any other celebrations.


Finally, the key is to going to a trusted sterling silver jewelry manufacturer such as Newport Sterling. We are a personalized sterling silver jewelry and fine gifts store that has been making jewelry for nearly 50 years. With the use of high quality processes, we guarantee the quality of our authentic sterling silver products.

Sterling Silver Worth - 6/27/2011

As many of you know, sterling silver is a precious metal that is more affordable than golds or diamonds. What makes sterling silver popular are the designs and the wide assortment. You can easily spot a genuine Sterling silver jewelry manufacturer in your area who can suggest the best sterling silver jewelry item for you. Now the question is, is sterling silver worth it?

 

Silver is sometimes referred to as "poor man's gold" due to the price comparison. However, when it comes to luster and design, silver has a decent quality built to last. The life span of sterling silver jewelry depends on cleanliness and the person wearing it. Bringing it to a sterling silver manufacturer for cleaning will not increase the value, but will keep it from depreciating and tarnishing.

 

Silver jewelry collections are also common because it's easy to obtain a few pieces that you can mix and match. Sterling silver is not limited to jewelry alone. There are actually items that are manufactured with sterling silver such as letter openers, business card holders and money clips. Sterling silver flatware is also a wise investment because they can be used for display yet are still functional.

 

Believe it or not, some people develop skin allergies from metals. Sterling silver has said to have no allergic reactions to most people even when worn for a long time so this is another advantage. Earrings are the most common jewelry pieces that cause allergies.

 

To answer the question, sterling silver is worth it. It may not be as expensive as gold, but with the same luster and shine, you can be assured that you are getting the most out of your money. Buying from a reliable sterling silver jewelry manufacturer can also get rid of your worries about buying replicas and imitations.

I love the hand blown glass bowl with the compass engraved in it.  What a unique gift!  My family grew up on and around the water, so it made a perfect gift for my parent’s anniversary.
