Things to remember while using silver bracelets

You should keep your sterling silver bracelet away from other jewels as it is susceptible to getting scratched. However, wearing the bracelet all the time is a good idea since contact with your skin will make the metal part of the bracelet sparkle. You should always remove your bracelet while working with corrosive chemicals like ammonia or bleach. Sea water can also spoil the metal so remove the bracelet when you go to a beach.
