Does Stainless Steel Jewellery Tarnish Over Time?

Quality stainless steel jewellery is generally highly resistant to tarnishing and corrosion. Unlike metals that readily react with moisture and air, stainless steel is designed to maintain its appearance under normal conditions.

However, everyday exposure can still affect how the surface looks. Sweat, perfumes, lotions, cleaning chemicals, salt water and chlorine may leave residue or gradually affect the finish.

This is why proper care is important even when jewellery is made from stainless steel. Regular gentle cleaning can help remove residue and keep the jewellery looking bright.
