Never do cleaning if you have Rhodium Jewelry!

Hello

The first time that I wear my Beautiful Necklace, I wanted everybody to see it

But I did some housework (cleaning) with the necklace. My Beautiful Necklace looks like an old one...I'm taking it off my neck no more shining silver, I decided to wash the necklace with gentle soap.It came a little bit better but I can see some bronze color.

So the person who sold me the necklace told me that it was plated rhodium and you can't go to your jewellery store to plate it. My question is where in Montreal do they do that? and much it is for a 18inch chain?

THANK YOU

Take it to a local jewelry store, tell them that you need it re-plated. They should be able to point you in the right direction.
