How to Keep Your Copper Jewellery Beautiful
Copper is a living metal — it develops a warm patina over time, a natural change that many wearers love. But if you prefer the gleam of freshly polished copper, a little care will keep it looking radiant.
1. Wear it often
Copper responds beautifully to being worn. The natural oils from your skin can help keep it polished and slow down tarnish.
2. Keep it dry
Remove your copper jewellery before swimming, showering, or doing dishes. Water, chlorine, and household cleaners can accelerate tarnishing.
3. Store with care
When not wearing your piece, store it in a dry place, preferably in an airtight pouch or container to slow oxidation.
4. Give it a quick polish
Use a soft jewellery cloth or a mix of lemon juice and baking soda for a gentle clean. Rinse and dry thoroughly afterwards.
Copper will always have a personality of its own — sometimes bright and fiery, sometimes softly aged. Whichever look you love, a little mindful care will keep your jewellery beautiful for years to come.
