Why clean your silver?
Have you ever stopped to think why silver jewelry darkens? Well, this is due to its natural oxidation process. It is a chemical process that this metal goes through and, as it is a very sensitive material, it is inevitable that these jewels do not darken with sweat and dirt.
In addition to this, silver jewelry has a great cost benefit, as in addition to being sophisticated and lasting a long time, they have more affordable prices than jewelry in other materials. So, you certainly won't risk losing your accessories simply because they got dark. And you don't have to! Silverware can be cleaned and below you will find a simple and quick way to do this.
Learn how to clean your silver
For this, you will need a toothbrush, a flannel and a mild soap. By separating these items, you will start by cleaning your silver jewelry with the mild soap. Do this with the wet piece and using the brush, carefully.
Then rinse the piece under running water, which can be from the sink, and see if your jewelry is really clean. If so, you can dry it with the flannel you set aside. Also do this very carefully, giving small beats and making sure that no part is wet. Also, leave it for a few hours in an airy, dry environment. If after washing you still feel your jewelry needs more polishing, repeat the first two steps until it's as shiny as you'd like. Simple, practical and fast, isn't it?
