Caring for Your Jungle Dream Jewelry

Our jewelry is crafted from high-quality 925 sterling silver and finished with a surface treatment. With proper care, it will stay beautiful for years — but certain everyday elements can cause that finish to fade over time.

What causes tarnishing

Exposure to sweat, perfume, hairspray, lotions, and air pollution can all affect your jewelry's surface over time. Chlorine, detergents, oils, and salt water are especially damaging, so it's best to remove your pieces before swimming, bathing, or using a sauna or jacuzzi.

Everyday wear

Apply perfume, makeup, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry, not after. Remove your pieces before household tasks or exercise to avoid accidental impact with hard surfaces. After each wear, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft cloth to remove any oils or residue from your skin.

Storage

Store your jewelry somewhere dry — avoid humid spaces like bathrooms, which accelerate tarnishing. A dedicated jewelry box helps keep pieces separated and protected, though no storage method fully prevents oxidation over time.

A quick note on longevity

Sterling silver is a living metal — it naturally reacts to its environment, and some fading is normal over time rather than a flaw. With a little care, it can be gently restored and will continue to be part of your everyday wear for years to come.
