Silver
jewelry is a kind of jewels that suit for different occasions. Their elegant
looks make the wearer can use it whether as fine or casual jewelry. Silver
metal that used to create jewelry items is rarely in the purest form. Most
silver jewelry comes to you in sterling silver, an alloy of 92.5% pure that mixed
with another metal normally copper to make it stronger.
Sterling
silver has lovely white shade and this metal can reflect light well. On the
other hand, too much air exposure can tarnish any silver quickly. To maintain the
shine and durability of your jewelry items, you should take required care. So, let
me share here the practical way to polish silver and make it shines like new again.
In this case, microfiber will help you a
lot.
There are some
methods that you can apply to clean silver jewelry items but as mentioned
before, I’ll share only the easiest cleaning way that just using water, mild
detergent, and Microfiber

Fill up a small basin with warm water adequately to
immerse the silver item. Then you put a small
amount of mild dish detergent into the water; mix it with your hands. Add the
silver jewelry items that you want to clean into the bowl. If needed, you can
use a clean soft sponge to lightly remove the dirt. Don’t let silver in the
soapy water too long; take it out of the bowl after a few minutes and rinse it
in cool water.
Next step is drying and polishing. Waterless Microfiber
Towels will help you to easier dry out the wet silver items
thoroughly. After the jewelry looks clean already, you can even give a polish
by using a small microfiber cloth. Avoid polishing with fabric which made from
heavy fibers as it will only worsen your silver. Rubb off any noticeable stained
spots with this microfiber and then you’ll get your shiny silver jewelry again.
Improper cleaning and scrubbing can harm any surface. For small valuable pieces
like jewelry that aren’t very dirty, microfiber cleaning cloths can be a great tool
to bring back their shines!
