Jewelry Care Guide | Keep Your Piece as Bold as the Day You Got It

Your Sun Salt Silver jewelry is more than an accessory—it’s a story, a statement, and a piece of handcrafted artistry. To keep it looking its best, here’s how to care for the unique materials I work with.

Turquoise

Turquoise is naturally soft and porous—water, oils, and even lotions can alter its color over time.

• Keep dry
• Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth
• Store in a pouch or box away from direct sunlight

Opals & Opal Doublets

Opals are mystical beauties—but they're also delicate. Doublets (a slice of opal layered with another material) can separate if exposed to water too often

• Avoid soaking or wearing in water
• Store away from extreme temps
• Gently wipe with a soft cloth (no harsh cleaners)

Fossilized Shark Teeth

These one-of-a-kind relics are strong but should be treated with care to preserve their natural edge and polish.

• Avoid abrasive scrubbing
• Don’t soak—just wipe gently
• Keep out of chlorinated water

Shell Accents

Shells are nature’s artwork and can scratch or crack under pressure.

• Avoid dropping or rough surfaces
• Keep away from perfumes or hairspray
• Store gently, preferably in a soft cloth

General Tips for All Jewelry

• Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, working out or working with your hands
• Avoid exposure to lotions, perfumes, and cleaning products
• Store each piece separately to prevent scratching
• Polish silver with a designated silver cloth to restore shine (always provided with your purchase)

Treat it like the treasure it is.
