Sea Glass Jewelry Care

How Do I Clean My Sterling Silver Sea Glass Jewelry?

To ensure the lasting beauty of your sterling silver sea glass (beach glass) jewelry we recommended occasionally cleaning your sea glass jewelry in warm mild soapy water and then simply pat dry with a cotton cloth or air dry. You may gently use a small soft brush, such as a baby toothbrush, to get into the crevices to remove any excess dirt. Follow up with a soft polishing cloth, specifically one that is labeled as a sterling silver polishing cloth. Do not use any chemical dipping solutions or a jewelry cleaning paste as this may damage your jewelry. Use care when cleaning your sea glass jewelry as it is glass, therefore, subject to breakage if it is accidentally dropped on a hard surface, such as tile floor.

Additionally, to avoid frequent cleaning of your jewelry, we suggest that you store your jewelry in a clear plastic bag, which is airtight, such as a small baggie. Air and moisture contribute to oxidation, therefore leading to an increase in tarnishing process. We have also found that a hanging jewelry organizer with clear zippered compartments works great. You may find these at many retail locations. These organizers allow you the ability to see your beach glass (sea glass) jewelry without having to go through closed gift boxes or jewelry holders. Keeping your jewelry separated during storage avoids scratches and any potential damage to your investments.

It is not recommended that you wear your sterling silver seaglass jewelry while swimming in chlorine water, salt water or relaxing in the hot tub. Additionally avoid wearing your sea glass jewelry during exposure to chemicals, such as ammonia or bleach. Typically, you should remove your jewelry prior to showering, swimming or cleaning, as with most jewelry.
