Do Vivienne Westwood necklaces tarnish?

1 Answer
Yes, Vivienne Westwood necklaces may tarnish if they're made out of sterling silver or brass. These metals can react with chemicals in chlorine, skin and hair care products and perfumes, leading to discoloration. The likelihood of tarnishing can be lowered by applying beauty products before putting on jewelry and allowing the skin to dry completely before wearing jewelry. Also, avoid showering, bathing or swimming with a necklace on to minimize tarnishing. On 1stDibs, find a range of Vivienne Westwood jewelry.
