Shower water is generally fine - there aren’t any super harsh chemicals in our tap water that would react significantly with your sterling silver jewelry. The soap and water can even help wash away any residue from your skin and dirt in the air that can also cause your silver to look dull.

Pool water is not recommended. Swimming pools are usually treated with chlorine, and chlorine reacts with sterling silver. So depending on how much chlorine is in the pool, you’ll probably have to clean your silver with a silver polishing cloth if you’re swimming frequently.

Ginza Silver is an independent specialist dealer of Goro's and Japanese artisan silver, operating from Japan. We are not an “authorized dealer” — Goro's has no authorized dealers of any kind, anywhere, so treat any seller claiming that status with caution. What we offer instead is verifiable: every piece is sourced and examined in Japan, photographed in-house so you see the exact item that ships, and covered by our written authenticity guarantee. Our guide “How Ginza Silver Authenticates Goro's Jewelry” explains the full examination process, and we answer questions about any specific piece before you buy.

Every item passes a physical examination before listing: stamps and hallmarks are compared against known-authentic references, the hand-carving is inspected for the bench-work evidence that cast copies lack, weight and dimensions are measured against reference examples, and patina is checked for consistency across the piece. Anything that fails a check is not listed. The full process is documented in our authentication guide in Goro's Guides, and you can request additional detail photos of any piece before ordering.
