How do you stop your AM jewellery from tarnishing? My small bee tarnished really quickly, and I've just had to clean it using silver dip.

Should I not wear it in the shower then?

Silver just tarnishes.

Hmm, but I have other silver jewellery that tarnishes much more slowly. And the silver dip says that it might be carcinogenic .

Use toothpaste to clean it instead.

I have this necklace with the matching earrings in silver and it's a nightmare to clean!

If it's sterling silver just rub it with a silver cloth

Do the AM gold plated items stand up to use? Was thinking of the small bee as a graduation present for my sister.

I have the bee necklace and it is a PITA as it gets caught on tops/sweaters and snags them so I very rarely wear it.

The gold plated AM necklaces tarnish very easily too
And go a murky dark bronze colour very quickly. I don't wear my AM necklace anymore because it looks cheap now, a shame considering what I paid for it

I love my bee, but the tarnishing thing is a pain. I've just used a silver cloth on it, and that seems to have brightened it up.

I was told not to wear it in the shower and not to spray perfume near it. I have had two necklaces for years and they haven't tarnished....

My gold plated AM earrings are completely tarnished :(

Okay, I won't wear it in the shower, or spray perfume on it. Thanks nellie.

The most utterly disappointing jewellery in the world
My bee was a pain and then I was bought a silver bee that tarnished like buggery

I have some of the cougar town stuff from Etsy and it is brilliant

I am a bit surprised actually - MN raves about it, and I love the look of my bee, but I really don't want to think about cleaning it all the time.

Hmm sounds as though it wouldn't be worth getting the little bee in gold plate.

I bought some silver jewellery from Bill Skinner studio and it has been coated with something that means it doesn not tarnish. He does a bee too.

AM jewelry looks nice but you can get much better quality jewelry from other designers. I used to be a fan but £100-200 on a necklace which tarnishes so quickly is just throwing money away.

Ah. I have been coveting the gold bee necklace for quite a while. I'm wobbling about it now. I hadn't heard about the tarnishing or the snagging!

I've had the bee since last September (worn most days though not in the shower or with perfume) and it's still perfect. It's so lovely, what a shame so many of you have had trouble with them.
