CARING GUIDE

Caring for Your Blue Serpent Pieces

At Blue Serpent, each piece is a statement—a reflection of your unique style. Our solid 925 sterling silver jewelry is designed to last, but to keep it looking fresh and polished, it requires a little care. Follow this guide to keep your pieces looking their best for years to come.

Maintaining Your Jewelry’s Quality

Our pieces are more than accessories—they are part of your identity. Crafted with precision and creativity, Blue Serpent jewelry deserves thoughtful care. Though our solid silver jewelry is built to last, it’s important to handle it with care to maintain its luster and form.

How to Handle Tarnished Jewelry

Every piece comes with its own unique story. And while solid silver is durable, tarnish can sometimes occur. To bring back the shine, use the complimentary polishing cloth included with your purchase. This soft cotton cloth is infused with special polishing agents that restore the brilliance of your pieces. With consistent use, it will help remove tarnish and prevent future oxidation.

For best results, gently buff the jewelry, paying extra attention to discolored or dull areas. Avoid excessive force as our designs are crafted for finesse and precision. Should you lose your polishing cloth, simply contact us at help@blue-serpent.com for a replacement, and we’ll get you sorted.

How to Prevent Rings from Warping

While Blue Serpent rings are crafted for style and durability, undue pressure or friction can lead to warping. To keep your ring in its original form, take it off during heavy work or strenuous activities. Even simple tasks like lifting weights, using tools, or hitting objects can affect the shape of your ring.

To prolong its life:
  • Remove rings when using tools or handling heavy items.
  • Avoid storing them in bags or pockets where they might get knocked around.
  • Consider taking them off before high-intensity activities.
Wearing Jewelry in Water

All Blue Serpent silver jewelry is safe to wear in water. Whether you’re at the beach or in the shower, our pieces will not tarnish or lose their integrity. However, keep in mind that extreme temperature changes can affect the fit of your rings, especially in cold water. Be mindful, so you don’t lose a piece that holds meaning.

How to Prevent Oxidation

Silver is naturally prone to oxidizing over time. To slow this process:

  • Store your jewelry in an airtight container or pouch when not in use.
  • Keep pieces away from harsh chemicals, perfumes, or lotions, which can accelerate tarnishing.
  • Wearing your jewelry regularly can also help, as the natural oils in your skin prevent oxidation.

Should your piece oxidize while in storage, use the polishing cloth included with your purchase to restore its shine.

Quick Tips for Long-Lasting Jewelry
  • Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals.
  • Avoid extreme heat and water exposure.
  • Remove pieces during high-intensity activities or heavy lifting.
  • Store your pieces in an airtight bag or container when not in use.

If you’ve gotten this far, we appreciate you taking the time to understand how to properly care for your jewelry, as just like you, we believe in the significance of every detail and the lasting beauty of a well-cared-for piece.
