Sulphur in the air, sweat, dirt and oxygen from the body can all contribute to a chemical reaction that darkens/ discolours the precious metal. This is a natural process and is therefore not a complaint, but you can quickly and easily get the beautiful color of the jewelry back with simple means.

Tips for polishing/shining rings:
- Unfold the polishing cloth on a table or firm surface.
- Run the outside of the ring back and forth across the polishing cloth with a firm grip until you see the cloth darken, this means the ring is now polished shiny.
- This is done all around the ring.
- To polish the inside of the ring, you can easily fold the cloth around an index finger and run it along the inside of the ring skin, preferably a little tightly, so that the fibres of the cloth polish the inside.
- Repeat this exercise until the result is as desired.
Tips for polishing chains:
- Unlock the chain lock so that the chain is now a long line. Hold the end of the chain firmly with one hand and stretch your arm slightly.
- Take the cleaning cloth in the other hand and pass the cloth around the chain.
- Start from the top - with your index finger and thumb, hold around the chain and pull down with a light grip. You will now see that the cloth darkens, which means that the chain is polished shiny.
