My Jewellery has tarnished, what can I do?

The tarnishing of silver is a normal and natural process. The jewellery absorbs skin particles, perfume, cosmetics, etc. and also oxidises over time due to the sulphur in our air. This causes the silver to turn in a brownish colour. This is a natural reaction (which occurs also in gold jewellery), which is not due to a lack of quality. Please note that THOMAS SABO jewellery is not rhodium-plated. There are some basic rules that you should follow in order for you to enjoy your precious and beautiful pieces of jewellery as long as possible. You can read about these in details under the section named Caring instructions about our Jewellery. Furthermore, THOMAS SABO offers an exclusive restoration service. We intensively clean and polish the jewellery. Restoration treatment is carried out within our in-house jewelry workshop. For more information see restoration service.

No warranty in the case of loss or theft

Please note that the warranty does not apply to lost or stolen items – a refund of the purchase price cannot be granted in that case. The warranty is also no longer valid if every part of a damaged item is missing missing (e.g. wristband is torn and all parts have been lost; a charm has fallen off; the hook and charm are both missing). In this case, we have no way of telling whether it was a material defect or damage caused by your own fault. We ask for your understanding.
