The incredible properties of silver

• Silverette® το πρωτότυπα κύπελλα είναι κατασκευασμένα εξ ολοκλήρου από συμπαγές ασήμι 925.
• 925 silver is the purest workable silver there is, in fact with the purest silver (999 silver) it is only possible to carry out baths or laminations on objects whose structure is composed of other materials that can cause allergies. Therefore, the words 100% Silver cannot be true.
• Since ancient times, silver has been recognized as having antibacterial and therapeutic effects. It is still widely used in medicine today (e.g. as a disinfectant, plasters, etc.).
• For the benefit of buyers, the law of 5.02.1934 imposed the double hallmark of silver objects: the first hallmark, enclosed in an oval, must indicate the silver fineness, the second mark, currently enclosed in a hexagon, identifies the manufacturer.
• Silver cups without the double trademark are not legal.

How to use

After the breastfeeding session, place a few drops of milk in each cup and apply directly to the nipple like a glass. Remove the cups and carefully lift the nipples with water before breastfeeding. Do not use any other nipple treatment in combination with Silverette®: this could reduce or even compromise the effectiveness of the product.

Cleaning and maintenance

Silverette® may tarnish over time due to the natural oxidation process that occurs in silver, however it is still safe and effective to use. To remove tarnish, make a paste using a mixture of baking soda (one teaspoon) with a few drops of water. Rub the paste over the cups, rinse and dry.
