FAQs

How to brighten antique earrings?

Start by gently cleaning your earrings with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to remove dirt or grime. You can use a mild soap or jewellery cleaner diluted in warm water, but avoid harsh chemicals. For stubborn stains or tarnish, consider using a jewellery polishing cloth specifically designed for delicate metals. Be cautious not to over-polish, as this can damage the antique patina or finishes.

How oxidize antique colour earring to silver?

If you want to restore antique-coloured earrings to a silver finish, it is essential to be cautious, as altering antique pieces can affect their value. Consider consulting a professional jeweller or restoration expert for advice specific to your antique jewellery. They may suggest methods such as silver plating or chemical treatments to restore the silver finish. It is crucial to ensure these processes are done carefully to preserve the integrity of the antique piece.

How to identify antique earrings?

Identifying antique earrings requires attention to detail and knowledge of historical jewellery styles, materials and craftsmanship techniques. Examine the construction and design elements, such as the type of clasps used, the style of settings, and any decorative features like filigree or engraving. Factors like the condition of the earrings and the patina should also be considered. If you are unsure, consider consulting a professional antique jeweller with expertise in vintage jewellery or buy your antique finish jewellery from trusted sources like Tarinika.

Is it safe to wear vintage earrings?

Whether it's safe to wear vintage earrings depends on various factors, including the materials they're made of and your sensitivities or allergies. Vintage earrings made of hypoallergenic materials like gold, sterling silver or brass are generally safe for most people. Older earrings may contain materials such as nickel or lead, which can cause allergic reactions or other health issues in some individuals. Therefore, buying antique finish jewellery instead of actual vintage pieces is suggested. Additionally, vintage earrings with damaged clasps or settings may pose a risk of breakage or injury. Before wearing vintage earrings, inspect them carefully for signs of damage or wear. If you have concerns about allergies or safety, consider consulting a dermatologist or allergist for advice.
