Caring for Your Amber Earrings
Because amber is brittle and soft by nature, it is vulnerable to chipping and scratching. Avoid wearing your amber jewelry while performing heavy labor or tasks that could put your jewelry in danger of impact. Also, try to avoid storing your amber with other metals and stones that could scratch it. Some people keep each piece of amber in its own cloth or plastic bag to prevent the stone from getting scratched. Another thing to watch out for is the sterling silver, as it is naturally susceptible to tarnishing. Hairspray, perfume, and lotions can dull your amber over time, so apply beauty products before putting on your amber jewelry. Amber can also be damaged by chlorine and cleaning products. Take care when polishing amber and silver jewelry not to harm the amber with the polish: consider using a silver polishing cloth instead of just polish. Amber melts at high temperatures, so avoid extreme heat. Although it is natural for amber to darken over the years, it is important to care for your amber regularly by washing it with warm water – NEVER with soap – and drying it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth. Amber's luster can be renewed by using a drop of olive oil and buffing with a soft, lint-free cloth.
