The Ultimate Guide to Keeping Your Sterling Silver Shining

We all know that feeling. You reach for your favorite ring from Otto Silver, only to find it looking a little dull. Don't panic tarnish is completely normal, and more importantly, it's easy to fix. Proper sterling silver care doesn't require expensive chemicals or a trip to a professional.

The secret to keeping your pieces sparkling is actually wearing them! The natural oils on your skin prevent tarnishing. When you're not wearing your jewelry, store it in a cool, dark place, preferably in an airtight bag. If a piece does lose its shine, a gentle rub with a microfiber cloth or a quick bath in warm water with mild dish soap will bring it right back to life. Avoid paper towels, as they can cause micro scratches. With just a few simple habits, your silver will look as stunning as the day you bought it.
