Sterling Silver Jewellery FAQs
What is sterling silver?
Sterling silver is a metal alloy made of pure silver mixed with other metals, usually copper or zinc. We combine pure silver with these metals to make it more durable for use in jewellery making. Many of our silver jewellery pieces use sterling silver, including our earrings, studs and fine chain necklaces, because it has a bright and shiny finish, and tends to be comfortable for most people to wear on a daily basis.

Sterling silver jewellery naturally tarnishes over time when in it comes into contact with moisture or oxygen, and can become discoloured. To prevent tarnishing and keep your jewellery in good condition, polish with a soft lint-free cloth and store in a protective jewellery box or cloth bag. We also recommend removing your jewellery before showering or bathing to keep your jewellery looking its best. For more information, read our guide on how to prevent your jewellery from tarnishing.How should I clean sterling silver jewellery?
The best way to remove dullness from your silver jewellery pieces is to give them a regular buff using a soft, non-abrasive lint-free cloth to polish the metal without scratching the surface. For more advice from OB's Jewellery Team, read our guide on how to clean silver jewellery.
