How to Care for Your Precious Metals

While all precious metals in Vancouver are valuable, they are not all the same when it comes to their maintenance and care. This is why if you collect Precious Metals in Vancouver or buy from reputable stores like J&M Coin & Jewellery, you would want to do your research and know how to take good care of all the kinds of precious metals you have.


Care for Silver

Silver tends to require the most care because it is prone to tarnishing. The silver can lose its natural lustre and may even turn brown when exposed to oxygen. You should store it properly. Use a jewellery box with a fabric lining. Put the jewellery box in a dry and cool area. You can even get some of those anti-tarnish products that you can place in the jewellery box. This helps “purify” the air that surrounds the silver to prevent oxidation.

Care for Gold

One of the things you would want to watch out for when using gold jewellery is exposing it to soap suds. The residue can easily collect on the surface of the precious metal and cause it to lose its natural shine. You would want to take all of your gold jewellery first before bathing or even washing your hands.

Care for Platinum

It’s easier to maintain platinum metal because it is not prone to tarnishing. If you notice it losing its shine a little bit, just wipe it with a clean cloth.

Keep these things in mind so you can keep your precious metals in great condition.
