how do I care for my ash hoffman jewelry?
ash hoffman jewelry is made of anti-oxidizing sterling silver and 14k gold or higher. The only plated pieces that ash hoffman jewelry currently offers are the headpieces and handchains. The lily grande finger slinky is the only ring that is offered in 14k yellow gold filled. While some oxidation is natural in precious metals, especially sterling silver, your ash hoffman jewelry polishing cloth should be all you need to shine your favorite pieces right up. Steer clear of liquid jewelry cleaners, chlorine, household cleaning products and other potentially harmful chemicals when wearing your ash hoffman jewelry. If you continue to store your jewelry in the ash hoffman jewelry pouch that is provided, your jewelry should stay nice and bright for whenever you wear it.
Hopefully you won't ever want to take any of your ash hoffman jewelry off!
