How to Clean Bronze
The Importance of Proper Care of Bronze Jewelry
Bronze jewelry is a great choice to complement your wardrobe with pieces that will last a lifetime. Bronze naturally develops a patina which, over time, adds depth, character and beauty with age. An easy way to achieve this effect is to avoid polishing and let oxygen and your natural body chemistry create a 'live' finish.
However, if you prefer the original brilliant, this guide contains the best cleaning tips and care methods for maintaining your brass jewelry. Follow the steps below to clean and polish your bronze jewelry occasionally.
Understanding Tarnishing in Bronze Jewelry
The 'patina' of jewelery is the common name we give to the oxidation process. A layer of patina appears when the copper component in bronze reacts with moisture and air. This also contributes to the beauty of our jewels. However, regular cleaning can effectively remove this patina, restoring the shine of your jewelry.
Recognizing Discoloration
Almost all jewelry on the market is made as an alloy containing various amounts of copper. This is why those wearing rose gold, silver or bronze jewelery may experience 'greenishness' where the jewelery comes into contact with the skin. This is not a reflection of the low quality of the jewelry, but a chemical reaction that occurs between the natural oils in your skin and the copper in your jewelry. Whether you will experience this with bronze or any copper-containing jewelry depends on your body's pH balance. The higher your pH (more acidic), the more frequently you may need to clean your jewelry. The good news is that this is a perfectly harmless reaction and goes away over time. It can also change depending on hormones or diet. Timely cleaning can reverse this discoloration and restore the bronze to its original color.
