Highlights

• Oxidized sterling silver creates dark contrast in the thin waves design.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the ring made from?

The ring is made from 925 sterling silver and has an oxidized finish. Oxidized sterling silver is deliberately darkened, while the metal underneath remains sterling silver. The finish is part of the silver itself, rather than a plated layer applied over another base metal.

What does an oxidized finish mean for the piece?

Oxidation deliberately darkens sterling silver so recessed detail reads black while raised detail stays bright. With wear, high points can brighten naturally, which is part of the look associated with oxidized sterling silver.

How to Care for Your Oxidized Thin Waves Toe Ring

1. Clean the piece with warm water, a drop of mild dish soap, a soft cloth, and a thorough dry.
2. Keep it away from chlorine and perfume.
3. Store it dry and closed.
4. Avoid silver cloths and dips, which can strip the dark finish and flatten the design.
5. Skip abrasives such as toothpaste, which can scratch sterling silver.
