What does tarnish-resistant jewellery actually mean?

Tarnish-resistant jewellery means the accessories are crafted to resist discolouration caused by exposure to moisture or other environmental factors. They’re made from durable materials, like stainless steel with a PVD coating, so that you can wear them for anything. 

Waterproof jewellery retains its appearance longer and requires far less maintenance. They typically require only an occasional polish with a jewellery polishing cloth, so you can wear them daily without worrying about their appearance. 

How does tarnish-resistant jewellery differ from waterproof jewellery?

Tarnish-resistant jewellery is designed to resist discolouration with exposure to the elements, whilst waterproof jewellery is specifically crafted to withstand regular exposure to water. All waterproof jewellery should be tarnish-resistant, whilst some tarnishproof jewellery may not be completely waterproof.

How can tarnish-resistant jewellery help simplify jewellery care?

Tarnish-resistant jewellery can help simplify jewellery care by being significantly lower-maintenance than other accessory options. Anti-tarnish jewellery can be worn on a daily basis, and doesn’t tend to require careful cleaning to maintain its appearance. They’re one of the most stylish choices for everyday jewellery, as they can be worn daily without their appearance being affected by exposure.
