Copper jewelry has been worn for thousands of years for arthritis pain relief. Today copper is widely used as a therapeutic remedy for many conditions such as tendonitis, bursitis, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel and rheumatism. Natural remedies have become the arthritis treatment of choice for many people in recent years.
How to Care for Copper
Copper oxidizes when exposed to air and turns a patina green which can leave a stain on the skin. A protective coating has been applied to the copper jewelry to help prevent this from happening. Because some people have more acid in their system, this coating may wear off quickly. Others can wear it for a long time with no cleaning or polishing required.
If the copper jewelry tarnishes, we recommend cleaning it with a jewelry cleaning cloth. Next apply an acrylic spray sealant to prevent further oxidization. The sealant is available inexpensively from most hardware stores.
Storing your copper jewelry in a sealed zip plastic bag when not being worn will also retard oxidization. An anti-tarnish carbon strip will provide added protection against tarnishing and damaging elements in the air.
