how to | clean silver jewelry

1. gently remove any dust from the silver. (dust can scratch the surface of the silver. use a jewelry cloth or a piece of one hundred percent cotton.)
2. if you are dealing with tarnished silver use a silver dip. this is the easiest way to clean tricky pieces of silver like chains. note: don't dip any precious or semi-precious stones in silver dip. this will damage the stones.
3. for jewelry with gemstones create a solution of mild detergent and warm water. gently buff small sections of the jewelry but work around the gemstone. rinse and then dry the piece of silver. repeat as much as necessary.
4. to clean more intricate, complex jewelry use a good quality silver cleaning paste.
