Thankfully, you can get your sterling silver sparkly without breaking a sweat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/allthingsjewelryy.com\/what-is-sterling-silver\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sterling silver <\/a>is an alloy containing 92.5% silver and 7.5% another metal, usually copper. It tarnishes after prolonged exposure to environmental factors like salty air, humidity, and household cleaning agents like bleach and chlorine. When it comes in contact with sulfur, it forms silver sulfide, which becomes a black coating on the jewelry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re sharing our best tips for cleaning sterling silver, whether daily, to remove tarnish, or to improve the shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-clean-sterling-silver-jewelry-for-regular-maintenance\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Clean Sterling Silver Jewelry for Regular Maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sterling silver is beautiful and although it is usually not as expensive as gold, you want it to remain in perfect shape. You don&#8217;t have to wait till the entire piece is tarnished before you decide to clean.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A quick wipe now and then will do the trick and help you get the most out of your jewelry. Here are some daily cleaning methods to keep your sterling silver in good shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"using-a-jewelry-cleaning-cloth\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using a Jewelry Cleaning Cloth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use this cleaning method every time you wear your sterling silver piece. Use a jewelry cleaning cloth or soft microfiber cloth to wipe your jewelry gently. This helps to remove dirt and makeup.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"polishing-cloth\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Polishing Cloth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A polishing cloth is usually designed to be two-sided. The inner side is coated with tarnishing inhibitors, cleaning and polishing substances, while the outer side, made of soft microfiber, is used for wiping off dirt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The inner side is used first to reach all the smaller parts and crevices. The cloth will start to turn black, a sign that it effectively removes the tarnish from the piece. Afterward, clean with the outer side to wipe off the remaining dirt and buff your sterling silver piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-cnvs-paragraph-callout has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fcb3c5\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Please Note: Don&#8217;t wash your sterling silver polishing cloth because it is usually pretreated. Even after it starts to look black after the first use, it will effectively clean your jewelry multiple times.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-clean-sterling-silver-chains\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Clean Sterling Silver Chains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sterling silver chains are not hard to clean but will require patience. You can always use your soft cloth or polishing cloth for regular maintenance. Use this method to go a step further to get your chains sparkling again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"dish-soap-and-warm-water\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dish Soap and Warm Water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a simple method for cleaning your sterling silver chain if you notice a small tarnished spot. Avoid using harsh materials like a stiff brush for cleaning to avoid scratching your jewelry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Materials Needed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Bowl<\/li><li>Soft-bristled brush<\/li><li>Soft cloth<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Pour warm water into a bowl and add a few drops of mild dishwashing soap like Dawn.<\/li><li>Mix the soap and water well by stirring.<\/li><li>Drop your sterling silver chain in the mix and soak for about 10-15 minutes.<\/li><li>Use a soft-bristled brush to reach the crevices of the chain.<\/li><li>Rinse in warm water.<\/li><li>Dry with a soft cloth and then buff by rubbing gently.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This method can also be used for other sterling silver pieces like rings and earrings. However, if your pieces have gemstones glued to them, you may want to avoid this method because soaking in water might loosen the glue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-clean-sterling-silver-earrings\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Clean Sterling Silver Earrings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sterling silver is a popular choice for earrings because of its hypoallergenic properties, perfect for sensitive ears.
