If you're wearing a stunning silver Pixiu bracelet or pendant, you may have noticed that over time, the shine begins to fade, and a bit of discoloration might appear. While this is a natural process for many types of plated jewelry, it’s especially common in pieces that are worn daily and interact with the wearer’s skin. Let’s explore why this happens, what it means, and how you can protect your treasured Pixiu jewelry for the long term.
Why Does Silver Pixiu Jewelry Discolor?
The discoloration of silver Pixiu jewelry, especially plated pieces, is a natural phenomenon. Plated jewelry is coated with a thin layer of silver or other precious metals, which can wear off after extended use—typically around two years. This process is entirely expected, especially with regular wear, and is influenced by the environment and the wearer’s body chemistry.
The Role of Body Chemistry in Discoloration
One major factor contributing to the fading or discoloration of your silver Pixiu jewelry is your body’s natural Chi, or energy, and the acidity of your skin. Everyone has different levels of skin acidity, and those with higher acidity levels may notice their jewelry tarnishes or loses its shine more quickly. This is due to a reaction between the skin’s sebum and the metal plating, causing it to gradually wear off.
What to Do When Discoloration Happens
While some fading over time is inevitable for plated jewelry, you don’t need to worry! At Hoseiki, we understand that your Pixiu jewelry is more than just an accessory—it’s a powerful talisman for wealth and protection. That’s why we offer a one-time replacement option for your Pixiu jewelry if discoloration occurs within two years. Our goal is to ensure that your piece continues to serve you, both in beauty and symbolism.
Caring for Your Silver Pixiu Jewelry
Even though plated jewelry is prone to natural wear, there are ways to slow down the process and keep your Pixiu looking its best for longer:
- Avoid exposure to moisture: Try to remove your Pixiu jewelry when showering, swimming, or exercising to prevent contact with sweat and water.
- Store it properly: Keep your jewelry in a cool, dry place when not in use. A jewelry box with a soft lining works perfectly.
- Clean it regularly: Use a soft cloth to gently wipe your jewelry after wearing it. This helps remove oils and dirt that can speed up the fading process.
