Jewelry Care & FAQ
Your TheFandomSmith piece is forged to last a lifetime — but like all fine sterling silver jewelry, it deserves a little care. Here's everything you need to know to keep your piece looking legendary.
🔧 How do I care for my jewelry?
Keep your sterling silver jewelry clean by gently wiping it with a soft, lint-free cloth after each wear. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, perfumes, lotions, and chlorine. Store your pieces in a cool, dry place — ideally in an airtight bag or jewelry box to slow tarnishing.
💚 Will my jewelry turn my skin green?
No! All TheFandomSmith pieces are crafted from genuine .925 sterling silver, which does not turn skin green. If you experience any discoloration, it may be due to a reaction with lotions or soaps — simply clean the piece and your skin with warm water.
😟 Will my jewelry scratch?
Sterling silver is a durable metal, but it can scratch with rough handling. We recommend storing each piece separately and avoiding contact with hard surfaces. Minor scratches can be buffed out with a silver polishing cloth.
🌿 Is TheFandomSmith jewelry hypoallergenic?
Yes! Our jewelry is made from .925 sterling silver, which is generally considered hypoallergenic and safe for most people with sensitive skin. If you have a known silver allergy, please consult with your doctor before wearing.
✨ How do I clean my jewelry?
For light cleaning, use a soft silver polishing cloth. For deeper cleaning, mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush, rinse thoroughly, and pat dry with a soft cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners or ultrasonic cleaners on pieces with enamel or stones.
🌑 Why is my silver turning dark (tarnishing)?
Tarnishing is a natural process for sterling silver caused by exposure to air and moisture. It does not damage the piece — simply polish it with a silver cloth to restore its shine. Storing your jewelry in an airtight bag when not in use will significantly slow down tarnishing.
🚿 Can I wear my jewelry in the shower or swimming?
We recommend removing your jewelry before showering, swimming, or exercising. Prolonged exposure to water, chlorine, and sweat can accelerate tarnishing and affect the finish of your piece.
📦 How should I store my jewelry?
Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or airtight zip-lock bag to prevent scratching and slow tarnishing. Keep jewelry away from direct sunlight, humidity, and extreme temperatures.
