Discoloration of
silver925
Silver 925 is the same standard all over the world, but it is treated differently in different countries.
If the product did not discolor in your home country, but discolored when purchased in another country,
The following may be possible:
In some countries, 925 silver may contain metals other than silver and copper, and in some countries it may have a protective coating to prevent tarnishing.
Our silver 925 has a natural finish without coating so that you can enjoy its natural beauty.
We are doing so.
Therefore, reactions vary depending on the environment, individual constitution, and the components of sweat.
Also, it is vulnerable to sulfur and easily discolors, so please be careful in hot springs, etc.
<Daily Care>
Silver may gradually tarnish when exposed to air, sweat, or skin oils.
After wearing, gently wipe the surface with a silver polishing cloth and store it in an airtight condition as much as possible to help maintain its shine.
Please note that silver can also tarnish when left unused for a long period of time, so we recommend wearing it regularly.
<Thorough Care>
If you notice black discoloration, you can use a commercially available silver cleaner to restore its shine, even in detailed areas.
Please avoid excessive scrubbing as it may cause scratches.
If you bring in a ring purchased from our store, we offer complimentary polishing in our shop.

How to care for silver925
To achieve a warm pink hue while maintaining the bright shine of silver,
this material is created by reducing the silver content compared to standard Silver 925,
and blending it with carefully balanced amounts of copper, palladium, and other metals.
It is a unique and rare material that is not widely carried in stores,
making it less common and less likely to be seen on others.
Its soft color blends beautifully with the skin,
making it a suitable choice for both men and women.
Rose-Tinted Silver Alloy
Pink Silver
Pink silver tarnish
Pink silver achieves its soft pink color by adjusting the ratio of metals other than silver.
(Compared to standard Silver 925, it contains a higher amount of copper, palladium, and other metals.)
However, since copper reacts easily with elements in the air, sweat, and skin oils,
pink silver is more prone to discoloration than Silver 925.
Some brands and manufacturers apply a coating to the surface to suppress color changes,
but at our store, we intentionally leave the material uncoated
so that you can enjoy the natural color and texture of pink silver over time.
For this reason, discoloration may vary depending on your usage environment,
body chemistry, and the components of your sweat.
Additionally, similar to silver, it is sensitive to sulfur,
so we recommend removing it when bathing or visiting hot springs.
<Daily Care>
Pink silver may gradually tarnish when exposed to air, sweat, or skin oils.
After wearing, gently polish it with a silver polishing cloth and store it with minimal exposure to air to help maintain its shine.
Pink silver can also tarnish when left unused for a long period of time,
so we recommend wearing it regularly.
<Thorough Care>
If you notice black discoloration or if the pink color appears to have faded,
you can use a commercially available metal polish suitable for silver to thoroughly clean even the detailed areas.
Please avoid excessive scrubbing, as it may cause scratches.
If you bring a ring purchased from our store to the shop,
we offer complimentary polishing services.

It may react to sweat and moisture,
and greenish-blue discoloration (patina) may appear.
In addition, those with metal allergies may find this material unsuitable for direct skin contact in some cases.
Our brass accessories are intentionally left uncoated
so that you can enjoy the natural texture and the unique changes that develop over time.

color changes such as tarnishing and darkening are unavoidable as time passes.

After wearing, please make sure to gently wipe it with a silver polishing cloth,and store it with minimal exposure to air to help slow down discoloration.
<Thorough Care>
Even with regular care,brass may often develop darkening or greenish-blue discoloration (patina).

K18
Discoloration of K18
K18 contains a high percentage of pure gold,which makes it far more resistant to tarnishing compared to silver or brass.
However, the silver and copper blended into the alloy can react with elements in the air,as well as with sweat and skin oils,which may result in slight dullness or changes in color over time.
In particular, sulfur in hot springs, salt in seawater,and periods when you perspire more can create conditions where discoloration is more likely to occur.
Depending on its condition, the surface may appear slightly reddish or darker,but these changes are natural reactions of the metal.
<Daily Care>
Although K18 is highly resistant to tarnishing,it may become slightly dull when exposed to sweat, skin oils, or cosmetics.
After wearing, gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth to remove any residue and help maintain its beautiful appearance.
When storing, avoid humidity and keep it separate from other jewelry by placing it in an individual pouch or jewelry case.
<Thorough Care>
If you notice a loss of shine or dullness,a commercially available gold or platinum jewelry cleaner can help restore its brilliance.
For rings purchased at our store,we offer complimentary polishing services in-store,
so please feel free to bring your piece to us anytime.
