They are made out of german silver aka nickel silver, which in fact has no silver in the metals at all..see below...
They do have a sterling silver overlay...
Some metals may be called 'silver' when, in fact, they are not (except in coloration). For example, nickel silver (also know as German silver) is an alloy consisting of about 60% copper, about 20% nickel, about 20% zinc, and sometimes about 5% tin (in which case the alloy is called alpaca). There is no silver at all in German/nickel/alpaca silver.
This can be cleaned in warm water with mild dishsoap...after cleaning rinse well and completely dry with soft cloth..
To store when you arent wearing it wrap in a paper towel or tissues and store in a ziplock baggie.(helps keep the oxidation minimal), dry pack/baggie provided to help keep moisture out.
These pieces are lead free...
