The daily routine
Rinse after wearing, brush gently with mild soap and a soft brush, then dry completely before it goes in the case.
- No toothpaste — it's abrasive.
- No boiling water.
- Dry fully before storing.

Silver darkens faster in damp air. A polishing cloth fixes it in a minute; karat gold doesn't tarnish.
