sterling silver filigree cuff braceletHow do you clean sterling silver jewelry? There are several ways. You can use a polishing cloth, which does a good job for most silver pieces. If your silver jewelry is really tarnished and has a lot of crevices that’s hard to reach, try Revitalizing Silver Jewelry Cleaner by Connoisseurs. This product is very powerful so please read the instructions. You only dip your silver jewelry for a few seconds. You will still need to use a polishing cloth to bring back the shine and luster to your jewelry after using this product. We include a deluxe polishing cloth free with orders totaling $150 or more.

If you wear your sterling silver jewelry all the time it is less likely to tarnish. I wear my silver bracelet 24/7, in the shower too. It always looks great, however, once in awhile I will use a polishing cloth to make it look brand new.

DO NOT use the above cleaner mentioned with jewelry that has gemstones. Please refer to our instructions on how to clean silver and gemstone jewelry. When using a polishing cloth on jewelry with gemstones, be careful not to touch the stone with the polishing cloth. I put my fingernail next to the stone to keep it from coming in contact with the polishing cloth.

Other tips: Do not leave your silver jewelry lying around in damp places like a bathroom or next to a sink. Do not leave your gemstone jewelry where is will get direct sunlight over an extended period of time, it will damage the stone.

sterling silver heart cuff braceletSilver jewelry is another name for sterling silver jewelry. Sterling silver jewelry is 95.5% silver and 4.5% copper; you will see a marking on sterling silver jewelry as .925. The reason copper is added to the silver is to make it hard so when made into jewelry it won’t bend or mark easily. Fine silver is 99.9% pure silver and is marked .999.

You will find silver jewelry that is plated over another type of metal, usually pewter but can be some other metal that has a very thin coating of sterling silver layered over it. This type of jewelry or findings used in making jewelry is usually cheap and sometimes referred to antiqued silver.  This type of silver is good for jewelry that doesn’t get a lot of wear like earrings and necklaces. However, plated sterling silver jewelry is not a good option for rings and bracelets that can get a lot of abuse by being hit or rubbed against objects.
