Caring for your copper jewelry

Care for copper jewelry

You can keep your new copper jewelry clean by occasionally washing it with lukewarm, soapy water and afterwards drying it with a soft cloth. You can also clean it by simply using a little copper polish on a soft cloth.

When not being worn, store your copper jewelry in plastic bags to keep it from tarnishing. If your copper jewelry should tarnish, you can clean it using a combination of salt and vinegar. A combination of salt and vinegar reduces oxidation from copper. Simply pour a little vinegar and salt over the copper, rub it into the metal and keep rubbing to remove any tarnishing and grime. Rinse off with water and rub dry with a soft cloth. Alternatively, you can also clean tarnish off your copper jewelry with lemon juice. Cut a lemon in half, add a little salt to the lemon and rub over the copper until all tarnish is removed. Rinse with water and dry with a soft cloth.
