How To Protect Your Precious Sterling Silver Jewelry
Article provided by: http://rmlove.net
It's said that at ancient times, the emperor used sterling silver dinnerware for dinner in case his enemy try to poison him, since sterling silver will turn black should there be any poison. No matter it's true or not, sterling silver is getting more and more popular nowadays and its price has been leading an obvious rise trend.
Sterling silver is shiny natural metal, people like to make it into fine jewelry and add it to their overall style. However, silver jewelry can not remain as shiny and beautiful without proper care, it tends to tarnish if you do not clean and maintain it properly.
Well, how to maintain your precious sterling silver jewelry?
1. How to store your silver jewelry
The best way to store a silver jewelry is to always keep it in a sealed little plastic bag alone, don't try to jam more than one piece in the bag, also don't make the mistake of storing it in a wooden box loose with other pieces. This way can keep your silver jewelry from scratches and protect it from oxidation, basically the oxidation and moisture in the air will turn your silver into a gold color, but that gold color shifts very quickly to a shade of black.
2. How to clean your silver jewelry
Although the best way to keep sterling silver is to keep it from air and water, most of us buy jewelry for decoration and prolonged exposure to air is inevitable. Regular cleaning can help to prevent silver from tarnishing but you need to clean it properly. Here are 3 steps for cleaning silver without damaging the finish:
Step 1.Choose a mind cleaning product like special silver cleaner, non abrasive tooth paste, baking soda or mild phosphate free detergents, and be sure to dilute them with water just for safety purpose. Never use alcohol, acetone, bleach and other such products since they can damage your sterling silver beyond repair.
Step 2. Choose a soft cleaning brush. In my opinion, the best cleaning brush is a little baby soft tooth brush. Remember that silver is a soft metal and if the brush is hard enough, it can scratch the silver finish, thus stay away from hard bristle brushes with horsehair.
Step 3.Choose a soft unbleached cloth fabric. When dry the sterling silver jewelry, use 100% cotton materials such as: special silver wipes, soft flannel materials, old T-shirts, glasses wipes, cotton balls. Using these types of materials can help prevent your Sterling Silver from being scratched.
There are many misconceptions on what to do to keep your precious Sterling Silver Clean and lustrous. Following the above 3 steps I provided can insure your sterling silver jewelry shiny and beautiful and last for a lifetime.
