About Hawaiian Jewelry
Simple or ornate, all Hawaiian jewelry has one thing in common: a connection to nature. Hawaiian necklaces, earrings, and rings can be made with many natural materials found right on the islands, including shells, rocks and wood.
In other instances, heirloom quality Hawaiian jewelry draws its designs from nature, but is crafted from precious metals. A Hawaiian silver ID bracelet is a perfect example of an heirloom piece. Most bracelet designs include natural images hammered into the metal, including plumeria, hibiscus and sea shells. Palm leaves are another popular Hawaiian motif used quite frequently in jewelry making.
Let's take a look at a number of wonderful Hawaiian silver ID bracelets that reflect true island flavor.

Caring for Your Hawaiian Silver Jewelry
Cleaning
Full silver and sterling silver has a tendency to tarnish when it reacts with elements in the air and our own body chemistry. To keep your Hawaiian silver ID bracelet in the best condition, you need to gently clean away the tarnish with a very soft cotton cloth.
Some people advocate cleaning tarnished silver with toothpaste, but this really isn't a very good idea. While it will certainly remove the tarnish, many toothpaste products contain micro-abrasives that can etch the surface of the metal. These same abrasives can also scratch enamel lettering and accents, so it's a better idea to avoid toothpaste altogether.
Storing
You can put your jewelry away clean, but unless it's stored properly it will still tarnish. Silver accessories should always be wrapped in soft cotton and enclosed in a zip-loc bag to keep the metal from reacting with the elements.
Substances to Avoid
Chlorine and sulfur do not react well with silver and cause a deep black oxidization that can spoil your bracelet. For this reason, it's best to remove your silver jewelry before you swim in a chlorinated pool, or while cooking egg yolks and other sulfur containing foods.
