What is Sterling Silver?

While pure silver can be combined with many different types of metals, Sterling Silver is created when combining pure silver with copper. Sterling Silver jewelry can be composed with different amounts of copper but is most often seen with the .925, or Sterling, stamp, meaning that the composition is of 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper. This has been found to be a good combination for maintaining the silver's durability without harming its sparkle.

Beautiful Gift Box Included

Your jewelry comes complete with a beautiful velvet box that is idea for gift giving. Contains a plush pad that the pendant rests on.

The box is also the perfect storage to make sure your jewelry is in perfect condition when you are not wearing it. Storage in the box is also the perfect way to avoid scratches when not in use.

Caring for Your Heartland Cross Pendant

The Sterling Silver is underneath the Rhodium plating, so you should never use silver cleaning products as they will damage this Rhodium plating. You should also make sure your pendant does not come into contact with harsh household chemicals such as bleach, ammonia, or chlorine. To avoid scratches, store the pendant in the lined jewelry box provided, or similar box or soft pouch.

To remove finger marks, dust etc. simply use a microfiber cloth and the Rhodium will quickly shine back up. If you notice any dirt build up you can simply wash the jewelry in a mild dish soap, dry off (do not use anything abrasive) and then shine up with the microfiber cloth.
