I literally covered the bowl with tinfoil. While it’s simmering up, line the bottom of the bowl with the tinfoil, shiny side up. Silver only! What you’ll need:Ħ) bowl (I used a soup bowl but you can use a larger bowl or even a bucket depending on how much silver you have)ħ) Polishing cloth (I used a microfiber cloth). It can be used on all kinds of silver alloys, but cannot be used of other metals or costume jewelry. I tested a few techniques out but this one seems to be the magic combination. This doesn’t preclude other silver pieces, such as family heirlooms, silverware and service pieces, picture frames, coins, heck even silver bars. It was amazing, I felt really accomplished. I cleaned every piece of silver I could find in my house. Saddened that my silver jewelry didn’t look as beautiful as I wanted it to, I investigated the best, most effective way to clean silver that yielded exceptional results.
They are so utterly expensive and don’t always work.
I kind of chuckle/snort/cry when I see silver polishing products. I’ve also noticed that for whatever chemical reason, my body reacts to silver and blackens it after a few wears (I believe this has to do with the alkaline balance in my body – but I am sure someone smarter than I can correct me on that). My pile included a Links of London charm, an old silver bracelet, a Tiffany ring, a few pairs of earrings, etc. I recently came across mine and was slightly saddened to see how tarnished it had become after a few months out of circulation… We all have that tangled lump of silver jewelry sitting in a drawer, basket or box somewhere.
