Why Is My Jewellery Tarnished?

All Monica Vinader jewellery is crafted from Sterling Silver. Fine Silver is generally too soft for producing luxury jewellery and so it is alloyed with other metals to ensure all of our pieces are both long lasting and just as beautiful.

Silver is a very stable element, however the metals it is alloyed with can react to their surroundings creating a tarnish. 

This occurs particularly when the piece is exposed to water, chemicals, high temperatures or humidity.

To keep your jewellery looking its best please follow our care instructions.

If your jewellery does become tarnished you can return your piece to us and we will repair this FOR FREE under our 5-Year Warranty. 

If you are outside of the warranty we are still able to offer you our Lifetime Repair Service for your jewellery, for a fee.

To get started visit our 'What Is The 5 Year Warranty And How Do I Make A Claim On It?' page and simply follow the instructions for the option that best describes how you purchased or received your piece.
