Sterling Silver Advice?
Q: I have been almost exclusively wearing 14k gold jewelry items for many years,
but I have recently started getting interested in some sterling silver pieces,
especially with the warmer weather on the way. I just got a Tiffany-style
bracelet that is "sterling silver, tarnish free". The clasp is a pain to do
and undo daily, so I'm wondering if anybody wears their silver all the time and
if they have had any problems doing so. I always kept my 14k bracelet(s) and
earrings and some rings on 24-7, but I know sterling can sometimes be tricky.
Thanks in advance for any advice/experiences.
A:- Has something to do with natural oils in your body and
body chemistry and such. Keeps it shiny and tarnish free. Sterling
silver
jewelry cleaner works great and takes tarnish away instantly....But
it does need to be kept in a special bag or wrapped with an
anti-tarnish
cloth. I wear alot of silver and find that it's easy just to dip and
clean a piece before I put it on....
-...and to buy the tarnish removal cloths especially for sterling
silver jewelry just in case your silver pieces do tarnish while being
stored. I hoarded these at nordies and AFAIK they still sell them. I
have other jewelry cleaners that I could use for my silver but always,
always use these since they get the job done fast w/o special cleaning
solutions, or water, and/or a mess.
-FWIW, I buy Connoisseurs brand dry jewelry wipes at places like Target and
Walmart (in the jewelry section, usually - somewhere around $5 a package) and
they work really well at removing tarnish on my silver jewelry. I use them all
the time with my pieces that have silver mixed with gems/stones/beads and
therefore can't be dipped. They shine up the silver *and* the beads/stones/etc.
without damaging the latter. They can also be used on gold jewelry.
