CARE
After several uses, our brass and silver jewellery may start to tarnish slightly. Some prefer the brass when it becomes darker in tone. However, you may prefer to restore your jewellery to its original polished gold-tone.
The best way to polish your brass jewellery is to use a brass polish, we suggest Brasso (Always follow the instructions on the bottle). If you don't have any brass polish to hand or prefer a more natural alternative, cover half a lemon in salt and rub over your jewellery until you see the tarnish starts to lift, rinse well and polish dry with a soft cloth.
Silver needs more gentle polishing with baking soda and a damp cloth.
Polish with brass polish, or half a lemon covered with salt.
